Training deep image harmonization network requires abundant training data, but it is extremely difficult to acquire training pairs of composite images and ground-truth harmonious images. Therefore, existing works turn to adjust the foreground appearance in a real image to create a synthetic composite image. However, such adjustment may not faithfully reflect the natural illumination change of foreground. In this work, we explore a novel transitive way to construct image harmonization dataset. Specifically, based on the existing datasets with recorded illumination information, we first convert the foreground in a real image to the standard illumination condition, and then convert it to another illumination condition, which is combined with the original background to form a synthetic composite image. In this manner, we construct an image harmonization dataset called ccHarmony, which is named after color checker (cc).
