Image dehazing poses significant challenges in environmental perception. Recent research mainly focus on deep learning-based methods with single modality, while they may result in severe information loss especially in dense-haze scenarios. The infrared image exhibits robustness to the haze, however, existing methods have primarily treated the infrared modality as auxiliary information, failing to fully explore its rich information in dehazing. To address this challenge, the key insight of this study is to design a visible-infrared fusion network for image dehazing. In particular, we propose a multi-scale Deep Structure Feature Extraction (DSFE) module, which incorporates the Channel-Pixel Attention Block (CPAB) to restore more spatial and marginal information within the deep structural features. Additionally, we introduce an inconsistency weighted fusion strategy to merge the two modalities by leveraging the more reliable information. To validate this, we construct a visible-infrared multimodal dataset called AirSim-VID based on the AirSim simulation platform. Extensive experiments performed on challenging real and simulated image datasets demonstrate that VIFNet can outperform many state-of-the-art competing methods. The code and dataset are available at https://github.com/mengyu212/VIFNet_dehazing.

The handwriting of Chinese characters is a fundamental aspect of learning the Chinese language. Previous automated assessment methods often framed scoring as a regression problem. However, this score-only feedback lacks actionable guidance, which limits its effectiveness in helping learners improve their handwriting skills. In this paper, we leverage vision-language models (VLMs) to analyze the quality of handwritten Chinese characters and generate multi-level feedback. Specifically, we investigate two feedback generation tasks: simple grade feedback (Task 1) and enriched, descriptive feedback (Task 2). We explore both low-rank adaptation (LoRA)-based fine-tuning strategies and in-context learning methods to integrate aesthetic assessment knowledge into VLMs. Experimental results show that our approach achieves state-of-the-art performances across multiple evaluation tracks in the CCL 2025 workshop on evaluation of handwritten Chinese character quality.
