Zusammenfassung:Existing image enhancement algorithms often fail to effectively address issues of visual disbalance, such as brightness unevenness and color distortion, in low‐light images. To overcome these challenges, we propose a TransISP‐based image enhancement method specifically designed for low‐light images. To mitigate color distortion, we design dual encoders based on decoupled representation learning, which enable complete decoupling of the reflection and illumination components, thereby preventing mutual interference during the image enhancement process. To address brightness unevenness, we introduce CNNformer, a hybrid model combining CNN and Transformer. This model efficiently captures local details and long‐distance dependencies between pixels, contributing to the enhancement of brightness features across various local regions. Additionally, we integrate traditional image signal processing algorithms to achieve efficient color correction and denoising of the reflection component. Furthermore, we employ a generative adversarial network (GAN) as the overarching framework to facilitate unsupervised learning. The experimental results show that, compared with six SOTA image enhancement algorithms, our method obtains significant improvement in evaluation indexes (e.g., on LOL, PSNR: 15.59%, SSIM: 9.77%, VIF: 9.65%), and it can improve visual disbalance defects in low‐light images captured from real‐world coal mine underground scenarios.
