Lighting-Aware Representation Learning under Controllable Lighting Variation

arXiv:2606.06899v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Variations in illumination remain a major challenge for visual representation learning, as they induce substantial appearance changes both across and within environments. While existing approaches typically address this issue through data augmentations that encourage models to become invariant to lighting changes, such strategies do not explicitly model lighting information during learning. Inspired by theories of human vision, we propose a...
