FusionRelight: Relighting Portraits in Real Time via Hybrid Domain Knowledge Fusion

Portrait relighting is a low-level vision problem in which physically plausible illumination transfer, identity preservation, and compact real-time inference must be considered together. Iterative diffusion-style methods can synthesize fine detail, but stochastic inference and cost complicate deterministic live video creation; physically grounded relighting preserves identity, but controlled synthetic or light-stage supervision transfers poorly to unconstrained cameras. We present Hybrid Domain Knowledge Fusion (HDKF), a relighting-specific training framework that learns complementary physics, reflectance, and realism priors from synthetic, One-Light-at-A-Time (OLAT), and in-the-wild data, then distills their source-routed supervision into a compact student with clean teacher labels and degraded student inputs. The framework is trained with pixel-aligned RGB, albedo, and normal supervision, providing a simulation substrate for physically grounded low-level relighting. On a held-out OLAT benchmark, HDKF obtains the best MSE, PSNR, and SSIM among evaluated methods while remaining competitive in LPIPS. The distilled model runs in real time at 512x512, reaching 11.89 ms on an RTX 2060 and 1.82 ms on an RTX 4090.

DataFreeShield: Defending Adversarial Attacks without Training Data

Recent advances in adversarial robustness rely on an abundant set of training data, where using external or additional datasets has become a common setting. However, in real life, the training data is often kept private for security and privacy issues, while only the pretrained weight is available to the public. In such scenarios, existing methods that assume accessibility to the original data become inapplicable. Thus we investigate the pivotal problem of data-free adversarial robustness, where we try to achieve adversarial robustness without accessing any real data. Through a preliminary study, we highlight the severity of the problem by showing that robustness without the original dataset is difficult to achieve, even with similar domain datasets. To address this issue, we propose DataFreeShield, which tackles the problem from two perspectives: surrogate dataset generation and adversarial training using the generated data. Through extensive validation, we show that DataFreeShield outperforms baselines, demonstrating that the proposed method sets the first entirely data-free solution for the adversarial robustness problem.
