SAM-helps-Shadow:When Segment Anything Model meet shadow removal

1 Jun 2023  ·  Xiaofeng Zhang, Chaochen Gu, Shanying Zhu ·

The challenges surrounding the application of image shadow removal to real-world images and not just constrained datasets like ISTD/SRD have highlighted an urgent need for zero-shot learning in this field. In this study, we innovatively adapted the SAM (Segment anything model) for shadow removal by introducing SAM-helps-Shadow, effectively integrating shadow detection and removal into a single stage. Our approach utilized the model's detection results as a potent prior for facilitating shadow detection, followed by shadow removal using a second-order deep unfolding network. The source code of SAM-helps-Shadow can be obtained from https://github.com/zhangbaijin/SAM-helps-Shadow.
