Abstract: Highlights•A Degradation-aware and Color-Corrected Network (DCN) is proposed.•DCN is built with the Degradation-aware and Color-Corrected Block (DCB).•The DCB is designed based on degradation representation and a color-corrected prior.•The new ESL is proposed based on the unsharp masking principle.
