Face hallucination in low-light environments is an extremely challenging task due to the significant loss of facial structure and facial texture information. Although cascading image relighting and face hallucination tasks is a feasible strategy, simply cascading these two tasks does not achieve satisfactory results because they do not fit into each other naturally. In this article, we propose a novel duplex fusing-embedding learning approach to tackle this challenge in low-light environments. The core of the proposed approach is the duplexity of feature fusion and embedding between relighting and hallucination tasks. In the feature fusion phase, the shallow features from two tasks are bidirectionally fused and activated into a consistent feature space. In the feature embedding phase, the fused features from the previous iteration are fed back and bidirectionally embedded into the deep features of two tasks in the current iteration so that they can learn feature representations that consistently represent both tasks, thereby boosting the performance of relighting and hallucination to generate photorealistic HR face images. Experimental results show that the proposed approach allows current face hallucination methods to learn to hallucinate face in the dark.
