Feedback Acquisition and Reconstruction of Spectrum-Sparse Signals by Predictive Level Comparisons
In this letter, we propose a sparsity promoting feedback acquisition and
reconstruction scheme for sensing, encoding and subsequent reconstruction of
spectrally sparse signals. In the proposed scheme, the spectral components are
estimated utilizing a sparsity-promoting, sliding-window algorithm in a
feedback loop. Utilizing the estimated spectral components, a level signal is
predicted and sign measurements of the prediction error are acquired. The
sparsity promoting algorithm can then estimate the spectral components
iteratively from the sign measurements. Unlike many batch-based Compressive
Sensing (CS) algorithms, our proposed algorithm gradually estimates and follows
slow changes in the sparse components utilizing a sliding-window technique. We
also consider the scenario in which possible flipping errors in the sign bits
propagate along iterations (due to the feedback loop) during reconstruction. We
propose an iterative error correction algorithm to cope with this error
propagation phenomenon considering a binary-sparse occurrence model on the
error sequence. Simulation results show effective performance of the proposed
scheme in comparison with the literature
Approximate Sparse Regularized Hyperspectral Unmixing
Sparse regression based unmixing has been recently proposed to estimate the abundance of materials present in hyperspectral image pixel. In this paper, a novel sparse unmixing optimization model based on approximate sparsity, namely, approximate sparse unmixing (ASU), is firstly proposed to perform the unmixing task for hyperspectral remote sensing imagery. And then, a variable splitting and augmented Lagrangian algorithm is introduced to tackle the optimization problem. In ASU, approximate sparsity is used as a regularizer for sparse unmixing, which is sparser than l1 regularizer and much easier to be solved than l0 regularizer. Three simulated and one real hyperspectral images were used to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm in comparison to l1 regularizer. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm is more effective and accurate for hyperspectral unmixing than state-of-the-art l1 regularizer
スペクトルの線形性を考慮したハイパースペクトラル画像のノイズ除去とアンミキシングに関する研究
This study aims to generalize color line to M-dimensional spectral line feature (M>3) and introduce methods for denoising and unmixing of hyperspectral images based on the spectral linearity.For denoising, we propose a local spectral component decomposition method based on the spectral line. We first calculate the spectral line of an M-channel image, then using the line, we decompose the image into three components: a single M-channel image and two gray-scale images. By virtue of the decomposition, the noise is concentrated on the two images, thus the algorithm needs to denoise only two grayscale images, regardless of the number of channels. For unmixing, we propose an algorithm that exploits the low-rank local abundance by applying the unclear norm to the abundance matrix for local regions of spatial and abundance domains. In optimization problem, the local abundance regularizer is collaborated with the L2, 1 norm and the total variation.北九州市立大
Real-time multispectral fluorescence and reflectance imaging for intraoperative applications
Fluorescence guided surgery supports doctors by making unrecognizable anatomical or pathological structures become recognizable. For instance, cancer cells can be targeted with one fluorescent dye whereas muscular tissue, nerves or blood vessels can be targeted by other dyes to allow distinction beyond conventional color vision. Consequently, intraoperative imaging devices should combine multispectral fluorescence with conventional reflectance color imaging over the entire visible and near-infrared spectral range at video rate, which remains a challenge. In this work, the requirements for such a fluorescence imaging device are analyzed in detail. A concept based on temporal and spectral multiplexing is developed, and a prototype system is build. Experiments and numerical simulations show that the prototype fulfills the design requirements and suggest future improvements. The multispectral fluorescence image stream is processed to present fluorescent dye images to the surgeon using linear unmixing. However, artifacts in the unmixed images may not be noticed by the surgeon. A tool is developed in this work to indicate unmixing inconsistencies on a per pixel and per frame basis. In-silico optimization and a critical review suggest future improvements and provide insight for clinical translation
