Multiscale reconstruction of porous media based on multiple dictionaries learning
Digital modeling of the microstructure is important for studying the physical
and transport properties of porous media. Multiscale modeling for porous media
can accurately characterize macro-pores and micro-pores in a large-FoV (field
of view) high-resolution three-dimensional pore structure model. This paper
proposes a multiscale reconstruction algorithm based on multiple dictionaries
learning, in which edge patterns and micro-pore patterns from homology
high-resolution pore structure are introduced into low-resolution pore
structure to build a fine multiscale pore structure model. The qualitative and
quantitative comparisons of the experimental results show that the results of
multiscale reconstruction are similar to the real high-resolution pore
structure in terms of complex pore geometry and pore surface morphology. The
geometric, topological and permeability properties of multiscale reconstruction
results are almost identical to those of the real high-resolution pore
structures. The experiments also demonstrate the proposal algorithm is capable
of multiscale reconstruction without regard to the size of the input. This work
provides an effective method for fine multiscale modeling of porous media
Activating More Information in Arbitrary-Scale Image Super-Resolution
Single-image super-resolution (SISR) has experienced vigorous growth with the rapid development of deep learning. However, handling arbitrary scales (e.g., integers, nonintegers, or asymmetric) using a single model remains a challenging task. Existing super-resolution (SR) networks commonly employ static convolutions during feature extraction, which cannoteffectively perceive changes in scales. Moreover, these continuous scale upsampling modules only utilize the scale factors, without considering the diversity of local features. To activate more information for better reconstruction, two plug-in and compatible modules for fixed-scale networks are designed to perform arbitrary-scale SR tasks. Firstly, we design a Scale-aware Local Feature Adaptation Module (SLFAM), which adaptively adjusts the attention weights of dynamic filters based on the local features and scales. It enables the network to possess stronger representation capabilities. Then we propose a Local Feature AdaptationUpsampling Module (LFAUM), which combines scales and local features to perform arbitrary-scale reconstruction. It allows the upsampling to adapt to local structures. Besides, deformable convolution is utilized letting more information to be activated in the reconstruction, enabling the network to better adapt to the texture features. Extensive experiments on various benchmark datasets demonstrate that integrating the proposed modules into a fixed-scale SR network enables it to achieve satisfactory results with non-integer or asymmetric scales while maintaining advanced performance with integer scales
