Single-shot compressed ultrafast photography: a review
Compressed ultrafast photography (CUP) is a burgeoning single-shot computational imaging technique that provides an imaging speed as high as 10 trillion frames per second and a sequence depth of up to a few hundred frames. This technique synergizes compressed sensing and the streak camera technique to capture nonrepeatable ultrafast transient events with a single shot. With recent unprecedented technical developments and extensions of this methodology, it has been widely used in ultrafast optical imaging and metrology, ultrafast electron diffraction and microscopy, and information security protection. We review the basic principles of CUP, its recent advances in data acquisition and image reconstruction, its fusions with other modalities, and its unique applications in multiple research fields
A Deep Cascade of Convolutional Neural Networks for MR Image Reconstruction
The acquisition of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is inherently slow.
Inspired by recent advances in deep learning, we propose a framework for
reconstructing MR images from undersampled data using a deep cascade of
convolutional neural networks to accelerate the data acquisition process. We
show that for Cartesian undersampling of 2D cardiac MR images, the proposed
method outperforms the state-of-the-art compressed sensing approaches, such as
dictionary learning-based MRI (DLMRI) reconstruction, in terms of
reconstruction error, perceptual quality and reconstruction speed for both
3-fold and 6-fold undersampling. Compared to DLMRI, the error produced by the
method proposed is approximately twice as small, allowing to preserve
anatomical structures more faithfully. Using our method, each image can be
reconstructed in 23 ms, which is fast enough to enable real-time applications
