Removal of compression artifacts using projections onto convex setsand line process modeling

We present a new image recovery algorithm to remove, in addition to blocking, ringing artifacts from compressed images and video. This new algorithm is based on the theory of projections onto convex sets (POCS). A new family of directional smoothness constraint sets is defined based on line processes modeling of the image edge structure. The definition of these smoothness sets also takes into account the fact that the visibility of compression artifacts in an image is spatially varying. To overcome the numerical difficulty in computing the projections onto these sets, a divide-and-conquer (DAC) strategy is introduced. According to this strategy, new smoothness sets are derived such that their projections are easier to compute. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated through numerical experiments using Motion Picture Expert Group based (MPEG-based) coders-decoders (codecs).     

Image contrast enhancement based on a histogram transformation oflocal standard deviation

The adaptive contrast enhancement (ACE) algorithm, which uses contrast gains (CGs) to adjust the high-frequency components of images, is a well-known technique for medical image processing. Conventionally, the CG is either a constant or inversely proportional to the local standard deviation (LSD). However, it is known that conventional approaches entail noise overenhancement and ringing artifacts. In this paper, the authors present a new ACE algorithm that eliminates these problems. First, a mathematical model for the LSD distribution is proposed by extending Hunt's (1976) image model. Then, the CG is formulated as a function of the LSD. The function, which is nonlinear, is determined by the transformation between the LSD histogram and a desired LSD distribution. Using the authors' formulation, it can be shown that conventional ACEs use linear functions to compute the new CGs. It is the proposed nonlinear function that produces an adequate CG resulting in little noise overenhancement and fewer ringing artifacts. Finally, simulations using some X-ray images are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the the authors' new algorithm     

Adaptive Fuzzy Filtering for Artifact Reduction in Compressed Images and Videos

A fuzzy filter adaptive to both sample's activity and the relative position between samples is proposed to reduce the artifacts in compressed multidimensional signals. For JPEG images, the fuzzy spatial filter is based on the directional characteristics of ringing artifacts along the strong edges. For compressed video sequences, the motion compensated spatiotemporal filter (MCSTF) is applied to intraframe and interframe pixels to deal with both spatial and temporal artifacts. A new metric which considers the tracking characteristic of human eyes is proposed to evaluate the flickering artifacts. Simulations on compressed images and videos show improvement in artifact reduction of the proposed adaptive fuzzy filter over other conventional spatial or temporal filtering approaches.      

High-quality non-blind image deconvolution with adaptive regularization

Non-blind image deconvolution is a process that obtains a sharp latent image from a blurred image when a point spread function (PSF) is known. However, ringing and noise amplification are inevitable artifacts in image deconvolution since perfect PSF estimation is impossible. The conventional regularization to reduce these artifacts cannot preserve image details in the deconvolved image when PSF estimation error is large, so strong regularization is needed. We propose a non-blind image deconvolution method which preserves image details, while suppressing ringing and noise artifacts by controlling regularization strength according to local characteristics of the image. In addition, the proposed method is performed fast with fast Fourier transforms so that it can be a practical solution to image deblurring problems. From experimental results, we have verified that the proposed method restored the sharp latent image with significantly reduced artifacts and it was performed fast compared to other non-blind image deconvolution methods.     

基于多尺度密集连接和U-Net改进的动态场景去模糊算法

针对现有去运动模糊网络在图像恢复过程中出现的纹理细节丢失、无法抑制噪声、产生振铃伪影等问题,提出一种基于多尺度密集连接和U-Net改进的动态场景去模糊算法。首先,借助U-Net网络中空洞卷积下采样有效扩大感受野,在不增加参数量的情况下避免图片产生不可逆损伤,并利用亚像素卷积在上采样过程中以小的卷积核获得清晰的图像细节,降低运算复杂度;其次,设计多尺度密集特征提取模块(multi-scale dense feature extraction, MDFE),通过密集连接的卷积层加强深层次特征提取和复用,运用空间金字塔池化(spatial pyramid pooling, SPP)分支引导多尺度特征的传递和融合,促进图像细节纹理的有效保留;最后,采用ConvLSTM双向连通结构(bidirectional convolution LSTM unit, BCLU)以非线性方式从编码路径补偿简单级联流失的上下文特征,推动深度特征跨阶段相互作用,弱化边缘伪影和噪声干扰。与现有先进方法对比,验证了本文所提算法在性能上的优势。

基于多尺度稠密残差网络的JPEG压缩伪迹去除方法

Self-learning-based post-processing for image/video deblocking via sparse representation

Blocking artifact, characterized by visually noticeable changes in pixel values along block boundaries, is a common problem in block-based image/video compression, especially at low bitrate coding. Various post-processing techniques have been proposed to reduce blocking artifacts, but they usually introduce excessive blurring or ringing effects. This paper proposes a self-learning-based post-processing framework for image/video deblocking by properly formulating deblocking as an MCA (morphological component analysis)-based image decomposition problem via sparse representation. Without the need of any prior knowledge (e.g., the positions where blocking artifacts occur, the algorithm used for compression, or the characteristics of image to be processed) about the blocking artifacts to be removed, the proposed framework can automatically learn two dictionaries for decomposing an input decoded image into its “blocking component” and “non-blocking component.” More specifically, the proposed method first decomposes a frame into the low-frequency and high-frequency parts by applying BM3D (block-matching and 3D filtering) algorithm. The high-frequency part is then decomposed into a blocking component and a non-blocking component by performing dictionary learning and sparse coding based on MCA. As a result, the blocking component can be removed from the image/video frame successfully while preserving most original visual details. Experimental results demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed algorithm.
