Photon counting compressive depth mapping
We demonstrate a compressed sensing, photon counting lidar system based on
the single-pixel camera. Our technique recovers both depth and intensity maps
from a single under-sampled set of incoherent, linear projections of a scene of
interest at ultra-low light levels around 0.5 picowatts. Only two-dimensional
reconstructions are required to image a three-dimensional scene. We demonstrate
intensity imaging and depth mapping at 256 x 256 pixel transverse resolution
with acquisition times as short as 3 seconds. We also show novelty filtering,
reconstructing only the difference between two instances of a scene. Finally,
we acquire 32 x 32 pixel real-time video for three-dimensional object tracking
at 14 frames-per-second.Comment: 16 pages, 8 figure
ISTA-Net: Interpretable Optimization-Inspired Deep Network for Image Compressive Sensing
With the aim of developing a fast yet accurate algorithm for compressive
sensing (CS) reconstruction of natural images, we combine in this paper the
merits of two existing categories of CS methods: the structure insights of
traditional optimization-based methods and the speed of recent network-based
ones. Specifically, we propose a novel structured deep network, dubbed
ISTA-Net, which is inspired by the Iterative Shrinkage-Thresholding Algorithm
(ISTA) for optimizing a general norm CS reconstruction model. To cast
ISTA into deep network form, we develop an effective strategy to solve the
proximal mapping associated with the sparsity-inducing regularizer using
nonlinear transforms. All the parameters in ISTA-Net (\eg nonlinear transforms,
shrinkage thresholds, step sizes, etc.) are learned end-to-end, rather than
being hand-crafted. Moreover, considering that the residuals of natural images
are more compressible, an enhanced version of ISTA-Net in the residual domain,
dubbed {ISTA-Net}, is derived to further improve CS reconstruction.
Extensive CS experiments demonstrate that the proposed ISTA-Nets outperform
existing state-of-the-art optimization-based and network-based CS methods by
large margins, while maintaining fast computational speed. Our source codes are

Frequency-modulated continuous-wave LiDAR compressive depth-mapping
We present an inexpensive architecture for converting a frequency-modulated
continuous-wave LiDAR system into a compressive-sensing based depth-mapping
camera. Instead of raster scanning to obtain depth-maps, compressive sensing is
used to significantly reduce the number of measurements. Ideally, our approach
requires two difference detectors. % but can operate with only one at the cost
of doubling the number of measurments. Due to the large flux entering the
detectors, the signal amplification from heterodyne detection, and the effects
of background subtraction from compressive sensing, the system can obtain
higher signal-to-noise ratios over detector-array based schemes while scanning
a scene faster than is possible through raster-scanning. %Moreover, we show how
a single total-variation minimization and two fast least-squares minimizations,
instead of a single complex nonlinear minimization, can efficiently recover
high-resolution depth-maps with minimal computational overhead. Moreover, by
efficiently storing only data points from measurements of an
pixel scene, we can easily extract depths by solving only two linear equations
with efficient convex-optimization methods
Adaptive-Rate Compressive Sensing Using Side Information
We provide two novel adaptive-rate compressive sensing (CS) strategies for
sparse, time-varying signals using side information. Our first method utilizes
extra cross-validation measurements, and the second one exploits extra
low-resolution measurements. Unlike the majority of current CS techniques, we
do not assume that we know an upper bound on the number of significant
coefficients that comprise the images in the video sequence. Instead, we use
the side information to predict the number of significant coefficients in the
signal at the next time instant. For each image in the video sequence, our
techniques specify a fixed number of spatially-multiplexed CS measurements to
acquire, and adjust this quantity from image to image. Our strategies are
developed in the specific context of background subtraction for surveillance
video, and we experimentally validate the proposed methods on real video
sequences
