How Does the Low-Rank Matrix Decomposition Help Internal and External Learnings for Super-Resolution
Wisely utilizing the internal and external learning methods is a new
challenge in super-resolution problem. To address this issue, we analyze the
attributes of two methodologies and find two observations of their recovered
details: 1) they are complementary in both feature space and image plane, 2)
they distribute sparsely in the spatial space. These inspire us to propose a
low-rank solution which effectively integrates two learning methods and then
achieves a superior result. To fit this solution, the internal learning method
and the external learning method are tailored to produce multiple preliminary
results. Our theoretical analysis and experiment prove that the proposed
low-rank solution does not require massive inputs to guarantee the performance,
and thereby simplifying the design of two learning methods for the solution.
Intensive experiments show the proposed solution improves the single learning
method in both qualitative and quantitative assessments. Surprisingly, it shows
more superior capability on noisy images and outperforms state-of-the-art
methods
Wideband Super-resolution Imaging in Radio Interferometry via Low Rankness and Joint Average Sparsity Models (HyperSARA)
We propose a new approach within the versatile framework of convex
optimization to solve the radio-interferometric wideband imaging problem. Our
approach, dubbed HyperSARA, solves a sequence of weighted nuclear norm and l21
minimization problems promoting low rankness and joint average sparsity of the
wideband model cube. On the one hand, enforcing low rankness enhances the
overall resolution of the reconstructed model cube by exploiting the
correlation between the different channels. On the other hand, promoting joint
average sparsity improves the overall sensitivity by rejecting artefacts
present on the different channels. An adaptive Preconditioned Primal-Dual
algorithm is adopted to solve the minimization problem. The algorithmic
structure is highly scalable to large data sets and allows for imaging in the
presence of unknown noise levels and calibration errors. We showcase the
superior performance of the proposed approach, reflected in high-resolution
images on simulations and real VLA observations with respect to single channel
imaging and the CLEAN-based wideband imaging algorithm in the WSCLEAN software.
