PolarVSR: A Unified Framework and Benchmark for Continuous Space-Time Polarization Video Reconstruction

Polarimetric imaging captures surface polarization characteristics, such as the Degree of Linear Polarization (DoLP) and the Angle of Polarization (AoP). In mainstream Division of-Focal-Plane (DoFP) color polarization imaging, recovering polarization parameters from captured mosaic arrays remains a challenging inverse problem. Existing DoFP cameras also face hardware bottlenecks and often cannot support high-frame-rate acquisition, limiting polarimetric imaging in dynamic video tasks. These limitations motivate joint spatial and temporal enhancement. To this end, we propose the first space-time polarization video reconstruction architecture. The method jointly models polarization directions in space and time and uses a polarization-aware implicit neural representation for continuous, high-fidelity upsampling. By analyzing temporal variations in polarization parameters, we further introduce a flow-guided polarization variation loss to supervise polarization dynamics. We also establish the first large-scale color DoFP polarization video benchmark to support this research direction. Extensive experiments on this benchmark demonstrate the effectiveness of the method.
