Training Single-Image Super-Resolution (SISR) models using pixel-based regression losses can achieve high distortion metrics scores (e.g., PSNR and SSIM), but often results in blurry images due to insufficient recovery of high-frequency…

GAN-based image compression schemes have shown remarkable progress lately due to their high perceptual quality at low bit rates. However, there are two main issues, including 1) the reconstructed image perceptual degeneration in color,…

Image restoration, which aims to recover high-quality images from their corrupted counterparts, often faces the challenge of being an ill-posed problem that allows multiple solutions for a single input. However, most deep learning based…

Unsupervised contrastive learning achieves great success in learning image representations with CNN. Unlike most recent methods that focused on improving accuracy of image classification, we present a novel contrastive learning approach,…

Recent self-supervised models have demonstrated equal or better performance than supervised methods, opening for AI systems to learn visual representations from practically unlimited data. However, these methods are typically…

Noisy images are a challenge to image compression algorithms due to the inherent difficulty of compressing noise. As noise cannot easily be discerned from image details, such as high-frequency signals, its presence leads to extra bits…

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…

Image deblurring is a notoriously challenging ill-posed inverse problem. In recent years, a wide variety of approaches have been proposed based upon regularization at the level of the image or on techniques from machine learning. We propose…

Single Image Super-Resolution (SISR) is one of the low-level computer vision problems that has received increased attention in the last few years. Current approaches are primarily based on harnessing the power of deep learning models and…

While deep neural networks exhibit state-of-the-art results in the task of image super-resolution (SR) with a fixed known acquisition process (e.g., a bicubic downscaling kernel), they experience a huge performance loss when the real…

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) image denoising is a fundamental problem as OCT images suffer from multiplicative speckle noise, resulting in poor visibility of retinal layers. The traditional denoising methods consider specific…

In recent years, deep learning models have been successfully employed for augmenting low-resolution cosmological simulations with small-scale information, a task known as "super-resolution". So far, these cosmological super-resolution…

Super-resolution and denoising are ill-posed yet fundamental image restoration tasks. In blind settings, the degradation kernel or the noise level are unknown. This makes restoration even more challenging, notably for learning-based…

Earth observation (EO) plays a crucial role in creating and sustaining a resilient and prosperous society that has far reaching consequences for all life and the planet itself. Remote sensing platforms like satellites, airborne platforms,…

Image compression and denoising represent fundamental challenges in image processing with many real-world applications. To address practical demands, current solutions can be categorized into two main strategies: 1) sequential method; and…

Generative models, such as GANs, learn an explicit low-dimensional representation of a particular class of images, and so they may be used as natural image priors for solving inverse problems such as image restoration and compressive…
