Research Type Experimental We present the il Lumination-Aware conditional Image Repainting (Lumin AIRe) task to address the unrealistic lighting effects in recent conditional image repainting (CIR) methods. The environment lighting and 3D geometry conditions are explicitly estimated from given background images and parsing masks using a parametric lighting representation and learning-based priors. These 3D conditions are then converted into illumination images through the proposed physically-based illumination rendering and illumination attention module. With the injection of illumination images, physically-correct lighting information is fed into the lighting-realistic generation process and repainted images with harmonized lighting effects in both foreground and background regions can be acquired, whose superiority over the results of state-of-the-art methods is confirmed through extensive experiments.

Pseudocode No The paper does not contain any clearly labeled pseudocode or algorithm blocks.
Open Source Code No The paper does not provide any explicit statement about releasing source code or a link to a code repository.
Open Datasets No To tackle the data shortage issue, we create the first dataset suitable for the Lumin AIRe task, named CAR-LUMINAIRE, with its data preparation process and data sample shown in Fig. 2. ... At last, 52,581 composited images at the resolution of 256 256 are collected, accompanied by parsing mask and normal map annotations, as shown in the data sample of Figure 2. (No public access information for the CAR-LUMINAIRE dataset is provided.)
Dataset Splits No The paper mentions using a 'test set' for a user study but does not specify exact training/validation/test dataset splits (percentages or counts) or reference predefined splits with citations for reproduction.
Hardware Specification No Please see supplementary materials for implementation details. (The paper does not provide specific hardware details in the main text; it defers to supplementary materials without providing the actual content in the main paper.)
Software Dependencies No Please see supplementary materials for implementation details. (The paper does not provide specific software dependencies with version numbers in the main text; it defers to supplementary materials without providing the actual content in the main paper.)
Experiment Setup No Please see supplementary materials for implementation details. (The paper explicitly defers experimental setup details, such as hyperparameters or specific training settings, to supplementary materials and does not include them in the main text.)
