EeveeDark: A Binary Neural Framework for Low-Light Video Enhancement via Event-Guided Sensor-Level Fusion
This work addresses the challenge of achieving high-quality video enhancement under extreme low-light conditions while maintaining computational efficiency in resource-constrained settings. To this end, it introduces binary neural networks (BNNs) into RAW-event multimodal fusion for the first time, proposing a modality-specific binary encoder, a lightweight cross-modal fusion module, and an event-guided skip gating mechanism to enable dynamic spatiotemporal optimization. Evaluated on both synthetic and real-world low-light datasets, the proposed method significantly outperforms existing BNN-based approaches, delivering superior enhancement quality while substantially reducing computational overhead. This approach effectively strikes a balance between performance and efficiency, making it particularly suitable for practical deployment in low-power or embedded vision systems.
