Removing undesirable reflections from a single image captured through a glass window is of practical importance to visual computing systems. Although state-of-the-art methods can obtain decent results in certain situations, performance declines significantly when tackling more general real-world cases. These failures stem from the intrinsic difficu...

Plug-and-play (PnP) is a non-convex framework that combines ADMM or other proximal algorithms with advanced denoiser priors. Recently, PnP has achieved great empirical success, especially with the integration of deep learning-based denoisers. However, a key problem of PnP based approaches is that they require manual parameter tweaking. It is necess...

In this article, we propose an alternating directional 3-D quasi-recurrent neural network for hyperspectral image (HSI) denoising, which can effectively embed the domain knowledge--structural spatiospectral correlation and global correlation along spectrum (GCS). Specifically, 3-D convolution is utilized to extract structural spatiospectral correla...

Lacking rich and realistic data, learned single image denoising algorithms generalize poorly to real raw images that do not resemble the data used for training. Although the problem can be alleviated by the heteroscedastic Gaussian model for noise synthesis, the noise sources caused by digital camera electronics are still largely overlooked, despit...
Article
The explosive growth in computation and energy cost of artificial intelligence has spurred interest in alternative computing modalities to conventional electronic processors. Photonic processors, which use photons instead of electrons, promise optical neural networks with ultralow latency and power consumption. However, existing optical neural netw...

Tasks across diverse application domains can be posed as large-scale optimization problems, these include graphics, vision, machine learning, imaging, health, scheduling, planning, and energy system forecasting. Independently of the application domain, proximal algorithms have emerged as a formal optimization method that successfully solves a wide...

Existing instance segmentation techniques are primarily tailored for high-visibility inputs, but their performance significantly deteriorates in extremely low-light environments. In this work, we take a deep look at instance segmentation in the dark and introduce several techniques that substantially boost the low-light inference accuracy. The prop...

Deep-learning-based hyperspectral image (HSI) restoration methods have gained great popularity for their remarkable performance but often demand expensive network retraining whenever the specifics of task changes. In this paper, we propose to restore HSIs in a unified approach with an effective plug-and-play method, which can jointly retain the fle...
Article
Compressive imaging aims to recover a latent image from under-sampled measurements, suffering from a serious ill-posed inverse problem. Recently, deep neural networks have been applied to this problem with superior results, owing to the learned advanced image priors. These approaches, however, require training separate models for different imaging...

Enhancing the visibility in extreme low-light environments is a challenging task. Under nearly lightless condition, existing image denoising methods could easily break down due to significantly low SNR. In this paper, we systematically study the noise statistics in the imaging pipeline of CMOS photosensors, and formulate a comprehensive noise model...

Recovering an underlying image from under-sampled measurements, Compressive Sensing Imaging (CSI) is a challenging problem and has many practical applications. Recently, deep neural networks have been applied to this problem with promising results, owing to its implicitly learned prior to alleviate the ill-poseness of CSI. However, existing neural...

Plug-and-Play (PnP) is a non-convex framework that combines proximal algorithms, for example alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM), with advanced denoiser priors. Over the past few years, great empirical success has been obtained by PnP algorithms, especially for the ones integrated with deep learning-based denoisers. However, a crucia...

In this paper, we describe the Perceptual Image Restoration and Manipulation (PIRM) workshop challenge on spectral image super-resolution, motivate its structure and conclude on results obtained by the participants. The challenge is one of the first of its kind, aiming at leveraging modern machine learning techniques to achieve spectral image super...
