We present a GAN-based network architecture for low-light image enhancement, called Structure and Detail Aware Low-light Image Enhancement GAN (SDALIE-GAN), which is trained with unpaired low/normal-light images. Specifically, complementary Structure Aware Generator (SAG) and Detail Aware Generator (DAG) are designed respectively to generate an enhanced low-light image. Besides, intermediate features from SAG and DAG are integrated through guided map supervised feature attention fusion module, and regularizes the generated samples with an appended intensity adjusting module. We demonstrate the advantages of the proposed approach by comparing it with state-of-the-art low-light image enhancement methods.
