XReflection - An Easy-to-use Toolbox for Single-image Reflection Removal

XReflection is a neat toolbox tailored for single-image reflection removal(SIRR). We offer state-of-the-art SIRR solutions for training and inference, with a high-performance data pipeline, multi-GPU/TPU support, and more!

🏆 Award

Equipped with XReflection, our team won the 1st place in the NTIRE 2025 Challenge on Single Image Reflection Removal in the Wild.

Data Preparation

Training dataset

• 7,643 images from the Pascal VOC dataset, center-cropped as 224 x 224 slices to synthesize training pairs;
• 90 real-world training pairs provided by Zhang et al.;
• 200 real-world training pairs provided by IBCLN.

Testing dataset

• 45 real-world testing images from CEILNet dataset;
• 20 real testing pairs provided by Zhang et al.;
• 20 real testing pairs provided by IBCLN;
• 454 real testing pairs from SIR^2 dataset, containing three subsets (i.e., Objects (200), Postcard (199), Wild (55)).
