The ambiguous Doppler centroid causes incorrect estimation result of the radial velocity. For moving targets with fast radial velocity, an unambiguous estimation approach of the radial velocity is introduced for the airborne SAR system in this paper. First, two channels carried different wavelength can be constructed by range multilook processing (RMLP). Second, the instantaneous frequency curve of the moving target is obtained by polynomial fitting for each channel, where the linear term denotes the baseband Doppler centroid. Considering the fact that the difference of the estimated baseband Doppler centroid in two channels is equal to the difference of the absolute Doppler centroid, the unambiguous radial velocity can be estimated using it. Third, the range walk and the Doppler shift which are produced by the fast radial velocity can be eliminated by compensating a phase in the range-frequency and azimuth-time domain. As a result, the moving target will be reimaged and relocated after azimuth compression. The proposed approach will be applied to both single — and multi-channel SAR system. The simulation results validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Most existing image restoration networks are designed in a disposable way and catastrophically forget previously learned distortions when trained on a new distortion removal task. To alleviate this problem, we raise the novel lifelong image restoration problem for blended distortions. We first design a base fork-join model in which multiple pre-trained expert models specializing in individual distortion removal task work cooperatively and adaptively to handle blended distortions. When the input is degraded by a new distortion, inspired by adult neurogenesis in human memory system, we develop a neural growing strategy where the previously trained model can incorporate a new expert branch and continually accumulate new knowledge without interfering with learned knowledge. Experimental results show that the proposed approach can not only achieve state-of-the-art performance on blended distortions removal tasks in both PSNR/SSIM metrics, but also maintain old expertise while learning new restoration tasks.

Existing learning-based methods for blind image quality assessment (BIQA) are heavily dependent on large amounts of annotated training data, and usually suffer from a severe performance degradation when encountering the domain/distribution shift problem. Thanks to the development of unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA), some works attempt to transfer the knowledge from a label-sufficient source domain to a label-free target domain under domain shift with UDA. However, it requires the coexistence of source and target data, which might be impractical for source data due to the privacy or storage issues. In this paper, we take the first step towards the source-free unsupervised domain adaptation (SFUDA) in a simple yet efficient manner for BIQA to tackle the domain shift without access to the source data. Specifically, we cast the quality assessment task as a rating distribution prediction problem. Based on the intrinsic properties of BIQA, we present a group of well-designed self-supervised objectives to guide the adaptation of the BN affine parameters towards the target domain. Among them, minimizing the prediction entropy and maximizing the batch prediction diversity aim to encourage more confident results while avoiding the trivial solution. Besides, based on the observation that the IQA rating distribution of single image follows the Gaussian distribution, we apply Gaussian regularization to the predicted rating distribution to make it more consistent with the nature of human scoring. Extensive experimental results under cross-domain scenarios demonstrated the effectiveness of our proposed method to mitigate the domain shift. Copyright © 2022, The Authors. All rights reserved.

geometry-based point cloud compression (G-PCC) can achieve remarkable compression efficiency for point clouds. However, it still leads to serious attribute compression artifacts, especially under low bitrate scenarios. In this paper, we propose a Multi-Scale Graph Attention Network (MS-GAT) to remove the artifacts of point cloud attributes compressed by G-PCC. We first construct a graph based on point cloud geometry coordinates and then use the Chebyshev graph convolutions to extract features of point cloud attributes. Considering that one point may be correlated with points both near and far away from it, we propose a multi-scale scheme to capture the short- and long-range correlations between the current point and its neighboring and distant points. To address the problem that various points may have different degrees of artifacts caused by adaptive quantization, we introduce the quantization step per point as an extra input to the proposed network. We also incorporate a weighted graph attentional layer into the network to pay special attention to the points with more attribute artifacts. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first attribute artifacts removal method for G-PCC. We validate the effectiveness of our method over various point clouds. Objective comparison results show that our proposed method achieves an average of 9.74% BD-rate reduction compared with Predlift and 10.13% BD-rate reduction compared with RAHT. Subjective comparison results present that visual artifacts such as color shifting, blurring, and quantization noise are reduced. Copyright © 2021, The Authors. All rights reserved.

Quality assessment of omnidirectional images has become increasingly urgent due to the rapid growth of virtual reality applications. Different from traditional 2D images and videos, omnidirectional contents can provide consumers with freely changeable viewports and a larger field of view covering the 360° × 180° spherical surface, which makes the objective quality assessment of omnidirectional images more challenging. In this paper, motivated by the characteristics of the human vision system (HVS) and the viewing process of omnidirectional contents, we propose a novel Viewport oriented Graph Convolution Network (VGCN) for blind omnidirectional image quality assessment (IQA). Generally, observers tend to give the subjective rating of a 360-degree image after passing and aggregating different viewports information when browsing the spherical scenery. Therefore, in order to model the mutual dependency of viewports in the omnidirectional image, we build a spatial viewport graph. Specifically, the graph nodes are first defined with selected viewports with higher probabilities to be seen, which is inspired by the HVS that human beings are more sensitive to structural information. Then, these nodes are connected by spatial relations to capture interactions among them. Finally, reasoning on the proposed graph is performed via graph convolutional networks. Moreover, we simultaneously obtain global quality using the entire omnidirectional image without viewport sampling to boost the performance according to the viewing experience. Experimental results demonstrate that our proposed model outperforms state-of-the-art full-reference and no-reference IQA metrics on two public omnidirectional IQA databases.

Hybrid-distorted image restoration (HD-IR) is dedicated to restore real distorted image that is degraded by multiple distortions. Existing HD-IR approaches usually ignore the inherent interference among hybrid distortions which compromises the restoration performance. To decompose such interference, we introduce the concept of Disentangled Feature Learning to achieve the feature-level divide-and-conquer of hybrid distortions. Specifically, we propose the feature disentanglement module (FDM) to distribute feature representations of different distortions into different channels by revising gain-control-based normalization. We also propose a feature aggregation module (FAM) with channel-wise attention to adaptively filter out the distortion representations and aggregate useful content information from different channels for the construction of raw image. The effectiveness of the proposed scheme is verified by visualizing the correlation matrix of features and channel responses of different distortions. Extensive experimental results also prove superior performance of our approach compared with the latest HD-IR schemes. Copyright © 2020, The Authors. All rights reserved.

The past decade has witnessed great success of deep learning technology in many disciplines, especially in computer vision and image processing. However, deep learning-based video coding remains in its infancy. This paper reviews the representative works about using deep learning for image/video coding, which has been an actively developing research area since the year of 2015. We divide the related works into two categories: new coding schemes that are built primarily upon deep networks (deep schemes), and deep network-based coding tools (deep tools) that shall be used within traditional coding schemes or together with traditional coding tools. For deep schemes, pixel probability modeling and auto-encoder are the two approaches, that can be viewed as predictive coding scheme and transform coding scheme, respectively. For deep tools, there have been several proposed techniques using deep learning to perform intra-picture prediction, inter-picture prediction, cross-channel prediction, probability distribution prediction, transform, post- or in-loop filtering, down- and up-sampling, as well as encoding optimizations. According to the newest reports, deep schemes have achieved comparable or even higher compression efficiency than the state-of-the-art traditional schemes, such as High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) based scheme, for image coding;deep tools have demonstrated the compression capability beyond HEVC for video coding. However, deep schemes have not yet reached the current height of HEVC for video coding, and deep tools remain largely unexplored at many aspects including the tradeoff between compression efficiency and encoding/decoding complexity, the optimization for perceptual naturalness or semantic quality, the speciality and universality, the federated design of multiple deep tools, and so on. In the hope of advocating the research of deep learning-based video coding, we present a case study of our developed prototype video codec, namely Deep Learning Vi

In both H.264 and HEVC, context-adaptive binary arithmetic coding (CABAC) is adopted as the entropy coding method. CABAC relies on manually designed binarization processes as well as handcrafted context models, which may restrict the compression efficiency. In this paper, we propose an arithmetic coding strategy by training neural networks, and make preliminary studies on coding of the intra prediction modes in HEVC. Instead of binarization, we propose to directly estimate the probability distribution of the 35 intra prediction modes with the adoption of a multi-level arithmetic codec. Instead of handcrafted context models, we utilize convolutional neural network (CNN) to perform the probability estimation. Simulation results show that our proposed arithmetic coding leads to as high as 9.9% bits saving compared with CABAC. Copyright © 2017, The Authors. All rights reserved.

Improving Wetland Mapping by Using Multi-Source Data Sets

International Symposium on Image and Data Fusion (ISIDF)

To conserve and manage wetland resources, it is important to map wetlands and monitor their changes. However, wetland mapping is difficult because of spectral confusion with other landcover classes and spectral variability among different types of wetlands. This paper demonstrated a multi-source based approach for improving the accuracy of wetland mapping. According to the formation of wetland, variables derived from multi-source image date, and other ancillary GIS layers were first integrated to create the possible region for wetland (PRW). And then classification was conducted within the PRW to map wetlands. PRW could greatly reduce the amount of other land cover classes that participated in the classification, therefore reducing both the difficulty of wetland mapping and the commission error rate. In this study, we chose the test area in Dongzhai Harbor, Hainan Island, China, where the main wetland type is mangrove. The mapping was based on LANDSAT TM/ETM+ imagery combined with DEM data, and the ancillary GIS data included available water, soil and vegetation layers. The thematic accuracy of the mapping was assessed using high-resolution images from Google Earth and local wetlands databases. Classification of the 2001 Landsat ETM+ scene alone resulted in consumer's accuracy of 65% and Kappa coefficients of 0.69, whereas the multi-source based approach with the same training samples resulted in an accuracy of 86% and 0.80. The developed method is portable, relatively easy to implement, and should be applicable in other landcover classes and over larger extents.
