GuidedNet: A General CNN Fusion Framework via High-Resolution Guidance for Hyperspectral Image Super-Resolution.

Hyperspectral image super-resolution (HISR) is about fusing a low-resolution hyperspectral image (LR-HSI) and a high-resolution multispectral image (HR-MSI) to generate a high-resolution hyperspectral image (HR-HSI). Recently, convolutional neural network (CNN)-based techniques have been extensively investigated for HISR yielding competitive outcomes. However, existing CNN-based methods often require a huge amount of network parameters leading to a heavy computational burden, thus, limiting the generalization ability.

CoNoT: Coupled Nonlinear Transform-Based Low-Rank Tensor Representation for Multidimensional Image Completion.

Recently, the transform-based tensor nuclear norm (TNN) methods have shown promising performance and drawn increasing attention in tensor completion (TC) problems. The main idea of these methods is to exploit the low-rank structure of frontal slices of the tensor under the transform. However, the transforms in TNN methods usually treat all modes equally and do not consider the different traits of different modes (i.

Self-Supervised Nonlinear Transform-Based Tensor Nuclear Norm for Multi-Dimensional Image Recovery.

Recently, transform-based tensor nuclear norm (TNN) minimization methods have received increasing attention for recovering third-order tensors in multi-dimensional imaging problems. The main idea of these methods is to perform the linear transform along the third mode of third-order tensors and then minimize the nuclear norm of frontal slices of the transformed tensor. The main aim of this paper is to propose a nonlinear multilayer neural network to learn a nonlinear transform by solely using the observed tensor in a self-supervised manner.

Tensor Completion via Complementary Global, Local, and Nonlocal Priors.

Completing missing entries in multidimensional visual data is a typical ill-posed problem that requires appropriate exploitation of prior information of the underlying data. Commonly used priors can be roughly categorized into three classes: global tensor low-rankness, local properties, and nonlocal self-similarity (NSS); most existing works utilize one or two of them to implement completion. Naturally, there arises an interesting question: can one concurrently make use of multiple priors in a unified way, such that they can collaborate with each other to achieve better performance? This work gives a positive answer by formulating a novel tensor completion framework which can simultaneously take advantage of the global-local-nonlocal priors.

Multiscale Feature Tensor Train Rank Minimization for Multidimensional Image Recovery.

The general tensor-based methods can recover missing values of multidimensional images by exploiting the low-rankness on the pixel level. However, especially when considerable pixels of an image are missing, the low-rankness is not reliable on the pixel level, resulting in some details losing in their results, which hinders the performance of subsequent image applications (e.g.

Dictionary Learning With Low-Rank Coding Coefficients for Tensor Completion.

In this article, we propose a novel tensor learning and coding model for third-order data completion. The aim of our model is to learn a data-adaptive dictionary from given observations and determine the coding coefficients of third-order tensor tubes. In the completion process, we minimize the low-rankness of each tensor slice containing the coding coefficients.

Hyperspectral Image Super-Resolution via Deep Spatiospectral Attention Convolutional Neural Networks.

Hyperspectral images (HSIs) are of crucial importance in order to better understand features from a large number of spectral channels. Restricted by its inner imaging mechanism, the spatial resolution is often limited for HSIs. To alleviate this issue, in this work, we propose a simple and efficient architecture of deep convolutional neural networks to fuse a low-resolution HSI (LR-HSI) and a high-resolution multispectral image (HR-MSI), yielding a high-resolution HSI (HR-HSI).

Multi-Dimensional Visual Data Completion via Low-Rank Tensor Representation Under Coupled Transform.

This paper addresses the tensor completion problem, which aims to recover missing information of multi-dimensional images. How to represent a low-rank structure embedded in the underlying data is the key issue in tensor completion. In this work, we suggest a novel low-rank tensor representation based on coupled transform, which fully exploits the spatial multi-scale nature and redundancy in spatial and spectral/temporal dimensions, leading to a better low tensor multi-rank approximation.

FastDeRain: A Novel Video Rain Streak Removal Method Using Directional Gradient Priors.

Rain streaks removal is an important issue in outdoor vision systems and has recently been investigated extensively. In this paper, we propose a novel video rain streak removal approach FastDeRain, which fully considers the discriminative characteristics of rain streaks and the clean video in the gradient domain. Specifically, on the one hand, rain streaks are sparse and smooth along the direction of the raindrops, whereas on the other hand, clean videos exhibit piecewise smoothness along the rain-perpendicular direction and continuity along the temporal direction.

Patch-Based Principal Component Analysis for Face Recognition.

We have proposed a patch-based principal component analysis (PCA) method to deal with face recognition. Many PCA-based methods for face recognition utilize the correlation between pixels, columns, or rows. But the local spatial information is not utilized or not fully utilized in these methods.
