Book Deep Learning Based Image Super Resolution

Download or read book Deep Learning Based Image Super Resolution written by Xiang Wang and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Image super resolution is one of the most significant computer vision researches aiming to reconstruct high resolution images with realistic details from low resolution images. In the past years, a number of traditional methods intended to produce high resolution images. Recently, Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (DCNNs) have developed rapidly and achieved impressive progress in the computer vision area. Benefiting from DCNNs, the performance of image super resolution has improved compared with traditional methods. However, there still exists a large gap between the results of current methods and the real-world high resolution quality. In this thesis, we leverage the techniques of DCNNs to develop image super res- olution models for generating satisfactory high resolution images. There are several proposed methods in this thesis to satisfy different super resolution scenarios. Our proposed methods are based on Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), leading to powerful generative ability and effective discriminative learning. To breakthrough current bottlenecks, we design novel architectures for generator and discriminator, and involve new optimization strategies to improve the learning stability of the mod- els. In order to improve the generalization ability of proposed methods, we conduct two mainstream super resolution tasks, namely face image hallucination and natu- ral image super resolution. All the proposed components of our methods result in promising super resolution performance for these tasks. Not only handling the supervised super resolution task, we also investigate the more challenging problem, namely the unsupervised image super resolution task where the paired high resolution image and low resolution image data are unavailable. To evaluate the performance of our methods in different scenarios, we conduct exten- sive experiments on several benchmark datasets to study each method separately. Compared to state-of-the-art methods, our methods are able to achieve superior per- formance both quantitatively and qualitatively.

Book UAV Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing

Download or read book UAV Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing written by Fernando Carvajal-Ramírez and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2021-09-06 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of remote sensing as a way of capturing information from an object without making contact with it has, until recently, been exclusively focused on the use of Earth observation satellites. The emergence of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) with Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) controlled navigation and sensor-carrying capabilities has increased the number of publications related to new remote sensing from much closer distances. Previous knowledge about the behavior of the Earth's surface under the incidence different wavelengths of energy has been successfully applied to a large amount of data recorded from UAVs, thereby increasing the special and temporal resolution of the products obtained. More specifically, the ability of UAVs to be positioned in the air at pre-programmed coordinate points; to track flight paths; and in any case, to record the coordinates of the sensor position at the time of the shot and at the pitch, yaw, and roll angles have opened an interesting field of applications for low-altitude aerial photogrammetry, known as UAV photogrammetry. In addition, photogrammetric data processing has been improved thanks to the combination of new algorithms, e.g., structure from motion (SfM), which solves the collinearity equations without the need for any control point, producing a cloud of points referenced to an arbitrary coordinate system and a full camera calibration, and the multi-view stereopsis (MVS) algorithm, which applies an expanding procedure of sparse set of matched keypoints in order to obtain a dense point cloud. The set of technical advances described above allows for geometric modeling of terrain surfaces with high accuracy, minimizing the need for topographic campaigns for georeferencing of such products. This Special Issue aims to compile some applications realized thanks to the synergies established between new remote sensing from close distances and UAV photogrammetry.
