Blind Face Restoration

24 papers with code • 4 benchmarks • 4 datasets

Blind face restoration aims at recovering high-quality faces from the low-quality counterparts suffering from unknown degradation, such as low-resolution, noise, blur, compression artifacts, etc. When applied to real-world scenarios, it becomes more challenging, due to more complicated degradation, diverse poses and expressions.

RestoreFormer++: Towards Real-World Blind Face Restoration from Undegraded Key-Value Pairs

wzhouxiff/restoreformerplusplus 14 Aug 2023

In this work, we propose RestoreFormer++, which on the one hand introduces fully-spatial attention mechanisms to model the contextual information and the interplay with the priors, and on the other hand, explores an extending degrading model to help generate more realistic degraded face images to alleviate the synthetic-to-real-world gap.

DiffBIR: Towards Blind Image Restoration with Generative Diffusion Prior

xpixelgroup/diffbir 29 Aug 2023

We present DiffBIR, a general restoration pipeline that could handle different blind image restoration tasks in a unified framework.

Towards Real-World Blind Face Restoration with Generative Diffusion Prior

chenxx89/bfrffusion 25 Dec 2023

We propose BFRffusion which is thoughtfully designed to effectively extract features from low-quality face images and could restore realistic and faithful facial details with the generative prior of the pretrained Stable Diffusion.

Efficient Diffusion Model for Image Restoration by Residual Shifting

zsyoaoa/resshift 12 Mar 2024

While diffusion-based image restoration (IR) methods have achieved remarkable success, they are still limited by the low inference speed attributed to the necessity of executing hundreds or even thousands of sampling steps.
