Image restoration for ring-array photoacoustic tomography system based on blind spatially rotational deconvolution.

Ring-array photoacoustic tomography (PAT) system has been widely used in noninvasive biomedical imaging. However, the reconstructed image usually suffers from spatially rotational blur and streak artifacts due to the non-ideal imaging conditions. To improve the reconstructed image towards higher quality, we propose a concept of spatially rotational convolution to formulate the image blur process, then we build a regularized restoration problem model accordingly and design an alternating minimization algorithm which is called blind spatially rotational deconvolution to achieve the restored image.

Blind multi-Poissonian image deconvolution with sparse log-step gradient prior.

Blind image deconvolution plays a very important role in the fields such as astronomical observation and fluorescence microscopy imaging, in which the noise follows Poisson distribution. However, due to the ill-posedness, it is a very challenging task to reach a satisfactory result from a single blurred image especially when the power of the Poisson noise is at a high level. Therefore, in this paper, we try to achieve high-quality restoration results with multi-blurred images which are contaminated by Poisson noise.

SMDS-Net: Model Guided Spectral-Spatial Network for Hyperspectral Image Denoising.

Deep learning (DL) based hyperspectral images (HSIs) denoising approaches directly learn the nonlinear mapping between noisy and clean HSI pairs. They usually do not consider the physical characteristics of HSIs. This drawback makes the models lack interpretability that is key to understanding their denoising mechanism and limits their denoising ability.

Blind Deconvolution for Poissonian Blurred Image With Total Variation and L-Norm Gradient Regularizations.

This paper proposes a regularized blind deconvolution method for restoring Poissonian blurred image. The problem is formulated by utilizing the L -norm of image gradients and total variation (TV) to regularize the latent image and point spread function (PSF), respectively, and combining them with the negative logarithmic Poisson log-likelihood. To solve the problem, we propose an approach which combines the methods of variable splitting and Lagrange multiplier to convert the original problem into three sub-problems, and then design an alternating minimization algorithm which incorporates the estimation of PSF and latent image as well as the updation of Lagrange multiplier into account.
