We propose UHDformer++, a general Transformer-based framework to solve numerous Ultra-High-Definition (UHD) image restoration tasks. UHDformer++ operates across $4$ coordinated learning spaces: 1) a high-resolution space (HR) for multi-level feature extraction, 2) a low-resolution space (LR) for learning compact, representative features, 3) a super-resolution space (SR) for upsampling low-resolution features from SR, and 4) a low-high fusion and reconstruction space (LHFR) for final image restoration. Specifically, HR extracts multi-scale high-resolution features and fuses them with low-resolution cues to produce residual images, while LR distills complementary representations from HR to improve restoration quality. To supply LHFR with richer features, SR super-resolves LR outputs before fusion. We further introduce two modules to bridge the high- and low-resolution spaces. The Feature-Refined Correlation Matching Transformation (FR-CMT) module selects the top $C/r~(C~\text{denotes the number of channels;~}r\geq1~\text{controls the squeezing level})$, from the fusion between max- and mean-pooled high-resolution features to replace less informative channels in the low-resolution Transformer. The Adaptive Channel Modulator (ACM) adaptively recalibrates multi-scale high-resolution features, ensuring that only task-relevant information propagates to LR. Extensive experiments demonstrate that UHDformer++ reduces model parameters by at least 86\% compared with recent state-of-the-art methods while achieving substantial performance gains across $5$ UHD restoration tasks, including low-light image enhancement, dehazing, deblurring, deraining, and desnowing. Code will be released at https://github.com/supersupercong/uhdformerplus.
Ultra-high-definition (UHD) image restoration must balance the aggregation of spatially recurring degradation cues with the preservation of localized image structures. Compact aggregation can reduce redundant processing but may attenuate edges, textures, and other fine structures. Existing approaches manage UHD restoration cost through downsampling, window partitioning, or cluster-based token reduction; yet many of them do not explicitly retain information that is poorly represented by shared aggregation. In this study, we propose a Context-Detail Decoupled State Space Model (CoDe-SSM) for UHD restoration, which processes aggregated context and clustering residuals in separate pathways. The context modeling pathway, implemented by the Global Cluster Scan Module (GCSM), aggregates features into $K$ input-dependent cluster centers and applies selective SSM reasoning over the resulting fixed-order sequence, enabling cross-region context sharing while decoupling computational cost from spatial resolution. The detail recovery pathway, implemented by the Local High-Frequency Module (LHFM), processes the clustering residual with an input-derived high-frequency mask and a sparse mixture of convolutional experts. Extensive experiments on five UHD benchmarks and five degradation types demonstrate that our explicit context-detail decoupling strategy yields substantial gains in restoration quality while maintaining desirable efficiency.
