Abstract

As a neuromorphic sensor with high temporal resolution, spike camera can generate continuous binary spike streams to capture per-pixel light intensity. We can use reconstruction methods to restore scene details in high-speed scenarios. However, due to limited information in spike streams, low-light scenes are difficult to effectively reconstruct. In this paper, we propose a bidirectional recurrent-based reconstruction framework, including a Light-Robust Representation (LR-Rep) and a fusion module, to better handle such extreme conditions. LR-Rep is designed to aggregate temporal information in spike streams, and a fusion module is utilized to extract temporal features. Additionally, we have developed a reconstruction benchmark for high-speed low-light scenes. Light sources in the scenes are carefully aligned to real-world conditions. Experimental results demonstrate the superiority of our method, which also generalizes well to real spike streams. Related codes and proposed datasets will be released after publication.
