Single Frame Image super Resolution using Learned Directionlets
In this paper, a new directionally adaptive, learning based, single image
super resolution method using multiple direction wavelet transform, called
Directionlets is presented. This method uses directionlets to effectively
capture directional features and to extract edge information along different
directions of a set of available high resolution images .This information is
used as the training set for super resolving a low resolution input image and
the Directionlet coefficients at finer scales of its high-resolution image are
learned locally from this training set and the inverse Directionlet transform
recovers the super-resolved high resolution image. The simulation results
showed that the proposed approach outperforms standard interpolation techniques
like Cubic spline interpolation as well as standard Wavelet-based learning,
both visually and in terms of the mean squared error (mse) values. This method
gives good result with aliased images also.Comment: 14 pages,6 figure
A Deep Primal-Dual Network for Guided Depth Super-Resolution
In this paper we present a novel method to increase the spatial resolution of
depth images. We combine a deep fully convolutional network with a non-local
variational method in a deep primal-dual network. The joint network computes a
noise-free, high-resolution estimate from a noisy, low-resolution input depth
map. Additionally, a high-resolution intensity image is used to guide the
reconstruction in the network. By unrolling the optimization steps of a
first-order primal-dual algorithm and formulating it as a network, we can train
our joint method end-to-end. This not only enables us to learn the weights of
the fully convolutional network, but also to optimize all parameters of the
variational method and its optimization procedure. The training of such a deep
network requires a large dataset for supervision. Therefore, we generate
high-quality depth maps and corresponding color images with a physically based
renderer. In an exhaustive evaluation we show that our method outperforms the
state-of-the-art on multiple benchmarks.Comment: BMVC 201
Adaptive Measurement Network for CS Image Reconstruction
Conventional compressive sensing (CS) reconstruction is very slow for its
characteristic of solving an optimization problem. Convolu- tional neural
network can realize fast processing while achieving compa- rable results. While
CS image recovery with high quality not only de- pends on good reconstruction
algorithms, but also good measurements. In this paper, we propose an adaptive
measurement network in which measurement is obtained by learning. The new
network consists of a fully-connected layer and ReconNet. The fully-connected
layer which has low-dimension output acts as measurement. We train the
fully-connected layer and ReconNet simultaneously and obtain adaptive
measurement. Because the adaptive measurement fits dataset better, in contrast
with random Gaussian measurement matrix, under the same measuremen- t rate, it
can extract the information of scene more efficiently and get better
reconstruction results. Experiments show that the new network outperforms the
original one.Comment: 11pages,8figure
Learning Deep CNN Denoiser Prior for Image Restoration
Model-based optimization methods and discriminative learning methods have
been the two dominant strategies for solving various inverse problems in
low-level vision. Typically, those two kinds of methods have their respective
merits and drawbacks, e.g., model-based optimization methods are flexible for
handling different inverse problems but are usually time-consuming with
sophisticated priors for the purpose of good performance; in the meanwhile,
discriminative learning methods have fast testing speed but their application
range is greatly restricted by the specialized task. Recent works have revealed
that, with the aid of variable splitting techniques, denoiser prior can be
plugged in as a modular part of model-based optimization methods to solve other
inverse problems (e.g., deblurring). Such an integration induces considerable
advantage when the denoiser is obtained via discriminative learning. However,
the study of integration with fast discriminative denoiser prior is still
lacking. To this end, this paper aims to train a set of fast and effective CNN
(convolutional neural network) denoisers and integrate them into model-based
optimization method to solve other inverse problems. Experimental results
demonstrate that the learned set of denoisers not only achieve promising
Gaussian denoising results but also can be used as prior to deliver good
performance for various low-level vision applications.Comment: Accepted to CVPR 2017. Code: https://github.com/cszn/ircn
