We propose a framework for aligning and fusing multiple images into a single coordinate-based neural representations. Our framework targets burst images that have misalignment due to camera ego motion and small changes in the scene. We describe different strategies for alignment depending on the assumption of the scene motion, namely, perspective planar (i.e., homography), optical flow with minimal scene change, and optical flow with notable occlusion and disocclusion. Our framework effectively combines the multiple inputs into a single neural implicit function without the need for selecting one of the images as a reference frame. We demonstrate how to use this multi-frame fusion framework for various layer separation tasks.

We analyze the spaces of images encoded by generative networks of the BigGAN architecture. We find that generic multiplicative perturbations away from the photo-realistic point often lead to images which appear as artistic renditions of the correspon ding objects. This demonstrates an emergence of aesthetic properties directly from the structure of the photo-realistic environment coupled with its neural network parametrization. Moreover, modifying a deep semantic part of the neural network encoding leads to the appearance of symbolic visual representations.
We propose a scheme for multi-layer representation of images. The problem is first treated from an information-theoretic viewpoint where we analyze the behavior of different sources of information under a multi-layer data compression framework and co mpare it with a single-stage (shallow) structure. We then consider the image data as the source of information and link the proposed representation scheme to the problem of multi-layer dictionary learning for visual data. For the current work we focus on the problem of image compression for a special class of images where we report a considerable performance boost in terms of PSNR at high compression ratios in comparison with the JPEG2000 codec.

Multi-focus image fusion (MFIF) has attracted considerable interests due to its numerous applications. While much progress has been made in recent years with efforts on developing various MFIF algorithms, some issues significantly hinder the fair and comprehensive performance comparison of MFIF methods, such as the lack of large-scale test set and the random choices of objective evaluation metrics in the literature. To solve these issues, this paper presents a multi-focus image fusion benchmark (MFIFB) which consists a test set of 105 image pairs, a code library of 30 MFIF algorithms, and 20 evaluation metrics. MFIFB is the first benchmark in the field of MFIF and provides the community a platform to compare MFIF algorithms fairly and comprehensively. Extensive experiments have been conducted using the proposed MFIFB to understand the performance of these algorithms. By analyzing the experimental results, effective MFIF algorithms are identified. More importantly, some observations on the status of the MFIF field are given, which can help to understand this field better.
This paper presents the Discrete Wavelet based fusion techniques for combining perceptually important image features. SPIHT (Set Partitioning in Hierarchical Trees) algorithm is an efficient method for lossy and lossless coding of fused image. This p aper presents some modifications on the SPIHT algorithm. It is based on the idea of insignificant correlation of wavelet coefficient among the medium and high frequency sub bands. In RE-MSPIHT algorithm, wavelet coefficients are scaled prior to SPIHT coding based on the sub band importance, with the goal of minimizing the MSE.

Many real world vision tasks, such as reflection removal from a transparent surface and intrinsic image decomposition, can be modeled as single image layer separation. However, this problem is highly ill-posed, requiring accurately aligned and hard t o collect triplet data to train the CNN models. To address this problem, this paper proposes an unsupervised method that requires no ground truth data triplet in training. At the core of the method are two assumptions about data distributions in the latent spaces of different layers, based on which a novel unsupervised layer separation pipeline can be derived. Then the method can be constructed based on the GANs framework with self-supervision and cycle consistency constraints, etc. Experimental results demonstrate its successfulness in outperforming existing unsupervised methods in both synthetic and real world tasks. The method also shows its ability to solve a more challenging multi-layer separation task.
