Junkai Fan

I am a Phd student at the PCALab of Nanjing University of Science and Technology, where I'm fortunate to be advised by Prof. Jian Yang and co-advised by Prof. Jun Li.

Prior to joining NJUST, I obtained my M.S degree in 2019 from Wenzhou University, advised by Prof. Zhengzhou Tang.

Research

My research is focused on computer vision and image processing. I’m particularly interested in image restoration (e.g., real-world dehazing and depth estimation). Representative papers are highlighted.

Daytime-mixed Non-aligned Learning for Real Nighttime Image Enhancement
Jiangwei Weng, Junkai Fan, Jianjun Qian, Ying Tai, Jian Yang*, Jun Li*

IEEE T-ITS, 2025

We propose a novel nighttime image enhancement framework using daytime-mixed misaligned supervision. It aims to couple information between non-aligned daytime and nighttime image pairs. Specifically, our framework consists of a simple yet effective daytime-mixed supervised learning phase and a Retinex-based reconstruction phase.

Learning Inverse Laplacian Pyramid for Progressive Depth Completion
Kun Wang, Zhiqiang Yan, Junkai Fan, Jun Li*, Jian Yang*

arXiv, 2025

LP-Net uses a multi-scale, progressive depth completion method via Laplacian Pyramid, starting with global scene context and refining local details with selective filtering. It achieves SOTA on indoor/outdoor datasets, is computationally efficient, and leads the KITTI leaderboard among peer-reviewed methods at submission.

DCL: Depth-Centric Dehazing and Depth-Estimation from Real-World Hazy Driving Video
Junkai Fan, Kun Wang, Zhiqiang Yan, Xiang Chen, Shangbin Gao, Jun Li*, Jian Yang*

AAAI, 2025
project page / github / video / poster / slides

We propose a novel depth-centric learning framework that combines the atmospheric scattering model(ASM) model with the brightness consistency constraint (BCC) constraint. The core idea is to use a shared depth estimation network for both ASM and BCC.

Guided Real Image Dehazing using YCbCr Color Space
Wengxuan Fang, Junkai Fan, Yu Zheng, Jiangwei Weng, Ying Tai, Jun Li*,

AAAI, 2025
project page / github

We propose a novel Structure Guided Dehazing Network (SGDN) that utilizes the superior structural properties of YCbCr features over RGB. Additionally, we introduce the Real-World Well-Aligned Haze (RW2AH) dataset, featuring diverse scenes from various geographical and climatic conditions.

DCDepth: Progressive Monocular Depth Estimation in Discrete Cosine Domain
Kun Wang, Zhiqiang Yan, Junkai Fan, Wanlu Zhu, Xiang Li, Jun Li ✉, Jian Yang ✉

NeurIPS, 2024
project page / github / poster / slides

DCDepth uses discrete cosine transformation on depth patches to estimate frequency coefficients, capturing local depth correlations. It separates depth into low-frequency (global structure) and high-frequency (details) components, predicting global context first and refining details progressively.

Driving-Video Dehazing with Non-Aligned Regularization for Safety Assistance
Junkai Fan, Jiangwei Weng, Kun Wang, Yijun Yang, Jianjun Qian, Jun Li*, Jian Yang*

CVPR, 2024
project page / github / video / poster

We present an innovative video dehazing framework for real-world driving scenarios, addressing temporal and spatial misalignment challenges with non-aligned hazy/clear video pairs and a reference frame matching module.

Non-aligned supervision for Real Image Dehazing
Junkai Fan, Fei Guo, Jianjun Qian, Xiang Li, Jun Li*, Jian Yang*

arXiv, 2023
project page / github

Given an image or video captured in a real foggy scene, our model is capable of restoring the corresponding clear scene image or video. Moreover, training our model does not require fully aligned ground truth (GT), which helps us collect real hazy scene data.
