LogicIR: Logic Gate Networks for Image Restoration

Image restoration aims to reconstruct high-quality images from degraded low-quality inputs. As the computational demands of image restoration models continue to rise, there is growing interest in lightweight architectures optimized for fast and efficient inference. Logic gate networks (LGNs), which operate using fundamental logic operations such as NAND and XOR, have recently emerged as a promising direction for achieving highly efficient computation. However, their potential remains largely untapped in the domain of image restoration. In this work, we introduce LogicIR, the first LGN specifically designed for image restoration tasks. LogicIR incorporates a UNet-inspired architecture composed entirely of logic gates. In addition, we propose a differentiable bit decoding layer and an index shuffling mechanism that improves information propagation across logic gates. Experimental results across multiple image restoration benchmarks demonstrate that LogicIR achieves strong performance with significantly reduced computational cost, establishing LogicIR as a viable and efficient alternative for image restoration.

Text Embedding Knows How to Quantize Text-Guided Diffusion Models

Despite the success of diffusion models in image generation tasks such as text-to-image, the enormous computational complexity of diffusion models limits their use in resource-constrained environments. To address this, network quantization has emerged as a promising solution for designing efficient diffusion models. However, existing diffusion model quantization methods do not consider input conditions, such as text prompts, as an essential source of information for quantization. In this paper, we propose a novel quantization method dubbed Quantization of Language-to-Image diffusion models using text Prompts (QLIP). QLIP leverages text prompts to guide the selection of bit precision for every layer at each time step. In addition, QLIP can be seamlessly integrated into existing quantization methods to enhance quantization efficiency. Our extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of QLIP in reducing computational complexity and improving the quality of the generated images across various datasets.
