The Sparsity of Cycle Spinning for Wavelet-Based Solutions of Linear Inverse Problems

The usual explanation of the efficacy of wavelet-based methods hinges on the sparsity of many real-world objects in the wavelet domain. Yet, standard wavelet-shrinkage techniques for sparse reconstruction are not competitive in practice, one reason being t ...

Neural Distributed Image Compression with Cross-Attention Feature Alignment

Ali Garjani

We consider the problem of compressing an information source when a correlated one is available as side information only at the decoder side, which is a special case of the distributed source coding problem in information theory. In particular, we consider ...

AN UNSUPERVISED METHOD FOR THE DETECTION OF AND TRACKING OF TARGETS IN SPOTLIGHT MODE SAR IMAGES

Lloyd Haydn Hughes

Taking advantage of Capella's ability to dwell on a target for an extended period of time (nominally 30s) in its spotlight (SP) mode, an unsupervised methodology for detecting moving targets in this data is presented in this paper. By colourizing short seg ...

On combining denoising with learning-based image decoding

Touradj Ebrahimi, Michela Testolina

Noise is an intrinsic part of any sensor and is present, in various degrees, in any content that has been captured in real life environments. In imaging applications, several pre- and post-processing solutions have been proposed to cope with noise in captu ...

Fault Detection and Diagnosis with Imbalanced and Noisy Data: A Hybrid Framework for Rotating Machinery

Amin Kaboli

Fault diagnosis plays an essential role in reducing the maintenance costs of rotating machinery manufacturing systems. In many real applications of fault detection and diagnosis, data tend to be imbalanced, meaning that the number of samples for some fault ...

Image Denoising with Control over Deep Network Hallucination

Sabine Süsstrunk, Majed El Helou, Qiyuan Liang

Deep image denoisers achieve state-of-the-art results but with a hidden cost. As witnessed in recent literature, these deep networks are capable of overfitting their training distributions, causing inaccurate hallucinations to be added to the output and ge ...
