Text-guided image fusion has recently emerged as an effective paradigm for integrating multi-modal information while enabling flexible and task-oriented fusion control. However, existing text-guided fusion methods often rely on shallow semantic-visual interaction and limited attention mechanisms, which restrict their ability to robustly handle complex degradations and fully exploit textual guidance. In this paper, we propose an iterative text-guided image fusion framework that incorporates text-conditioned feature interaction across multiple fusion and refinement stages. The proposed method integrates deepest-level Cross-Attention, multi-scale Cross-Gate Fusion, and stage-specific text-conditioned modulation, allowing the global text embedding to condition hierarchical feature fusion and residual refinement. By repeatedly injecting the pooled text embedding across hierarchical decoder and refinement stages, the proposed framework provides degradation-aware global semantic conditioning while preserving complementary information from the visible and infrared modalities. Experiments on several benchmark datasets show that the proposed method improves several information-preservation and perceptual-quality metrics, while exhibiting metric-dependent trade-offs on some datasets.
High-quality document images are pivotal for information archiving and downstream automatic processing. However, they are frequently compromised by diverse degradations during uncontrolled acquisition and transmission. While unified document restoration techniques have been proposed to restore images from multiple degradations, they often struggle with training multiple degradation-specific models, reliance on manual task-specific prompts, or cross-task data pairing. To address these limitations, we propose DocPure, a prompt-free unified framework that achieves degradation-aware document restoration. We design a degradation-aware structure auto-encoder with degradation-informed routing regularization to predict clean structural priors from degraded inputs. The model is prompt-free at inference, and degradation labels are only used as auxiliary supervision for the routing regularization during training. Furthermore, we introduce a structure-guided wavelet interaction mechanism to bridge frequency-domain features and spatial semantics. Within the structure-guided wavelet interaction mechanism, a cross-frequency adaptive modulation utilizes low-frequency sub-bands to modulate high-frequency recovery, ensuring structural consistency. Extensive experiments demonstrate that DocPure achieves strong performance compared with state-of-the-art methods across various tasks, including deblurring, denoising, compression artifact reduction, and deshadowing.
All-in-one image restoration seeks a single model that can recover images degraded by diverse and spatially non-uniform corruptions. However, many unified Transformers rely on fixed patch partitioning: task/degradation condition is injected only into the backbone blocks after tokenization, leaving the embedding and reconstruction stages insensitive to local degradation variations. In contrast to previous approaches, we present Flexible Image Transformer (FIT) that explicitly models degradation awareness across the entire pipeline, from patch sampling to pixel reconstruction. Specifically, FIT employs a lightweight Degradation Encoder to predict a global degradation vector $\mathbf{g}$ and a spatial degradation map $\mathbf{M}$ from local degradation severity, which jointly condition the patch embedding and unembedding through adaptive deformation. Moreover, to improve robustness across degradation types, we introduce a task-token dropout strategy that regularizes task conditioning during training. On five standard benchmarks (BSD68, Rain100L, SOTS, GoPro, and LOLv1), FIT achieves state-of-the-art performance with 30.72 dB average PSNR on the five-degradation setting and 32.83 dB on the three-degradation setting, outperforming recent unified restoration methods by +0.5$\sim$1.1 dB. Moreover, the learned offsets provide a direct handle for visualizing degradation-aware spatial adaptation.
All-in-One image restoration aims to develop a unified restoration framework for handling diverse degradation types. Existing end-to-end methods usually regard the restoration process as a black-box mapping, lacking an explicit optimization interpretation. Although deep unfolding provides an interpretable iterative modeling paradigm for image restoration, existing methods mostly rely on fixed degradation assumptions or predefined degradation information, making them difficult to adapt to unified restoration requirements under complex degradations and locally damaged content. This limitation restricts their performance in degradation suppression and structural detail recovery. To address these issues, this paper proposes DVANet, a deep unfolding network inspired by the half-quadratic splitting optimization algorithm, which formulates unified image restoration under complex degradations as a collaborative unfolding process between degradation-aware observation consistency and visual-prior-guided reconstruction. Specifically, in the degradation-aware observation consistency branch, a degradation representation module is employed to extract global degradation attributes and local degradation cues, and degradation-conditioned mapping is used to enhance the model's adaptability to different degradation types. In the visual-prior-guided reconstruction branch, DINOv3 is introduced to provide structural and semantic information as hierarchical visual priors, thereby complementing the missing structural information in damaged regions and improving detail recovery. Extensive experiments demonstrate that DVANet achieves superior or competitive performance on multi-scenario degradation and cross-domain image restoration tasks, showing favorable degradation adaptability and generalization ability.
