Subsea images measured by the side scan sonars (SSSs) are necessary visual data in the process of deep-sea exploration by using the autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs). They could vividly reflect the topography of the seabed, but usually accompanied by complex and severe noise. This paper proposes a deep denoising method for SSS images without high-quality reference data, which uses one single noise SSS image to perform self-supervised denoising. Compared with the classical artificially designed filters, the deep denoising method shows obvious advantages. The denoising experiments are performed on the real seabed SSS images, and the results demonstrate that our proposed method could effectively reduce the noise on the SSS image while minimizing the image quality and detail loss.

To guarantee a satisfying Quality of Experience (QoE) for consumers, it is required to measure image quality efficiently and reliably. The neglect of the high-level semantic information may result in predicting a clear blue sky as bad quality, which
is inconsistent with human perception. Therefore, in this paper, we tackle this problem by exploiting the high-level semantics and propose a novel no-reference image quality assessment method for realistic blur images. Firstly, the whole image is divided into multiple overlapping patches. Secondly, each patch is represented by the high-level feature extracted from the pre-trained deep convolutional neural network model. Thirdly, three different kinds of statistical structures are adopted to aggregate the information from different patches, which mainly contain some common statistics (i.e., the mean&standard deviation, quantiles and moments). Finally, the aggregated features are fed into a linear regression model to predict the image quality. Experiments show that, compared with low-level features, high-level features indeed play a more critical role in resolving the aforementioned challenging problem for quality estimation. Besides, the proposed method significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art methods on two realistic blur image databases and achieves comparable performance on two synthetic blur image databases.
Mammography is using low-energy X-rays to screen the human breast and is utilized by radiologists to detect breast cancer. Typically radiologists require a mammogram with impeccable image quality for an accurate diagnosis. In this study, we propose a
deep learning method based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) for mammogram denoising to improve the image quality. We first enhance the noise level and employ Anscombe Transformation (AT) to transform Poisson noise to white Gaussian noise. With this data augmentation, a deep residual network is trained to learn the noise map of the noisy images. We show, that the proposed method can remove not only simulated but also real noise. Furthermore, we also compare our results with state-of-the-art denoising methods, such as BM3D and DNCNN. In an early investigation, we achieved qualitatively better mammogram denoising results.
In this paper, we propose a deep learning based video quality assessment (VQA) framework to evaluate the quality of the compressed users generated content (UGC) videos. The proposed VQA framework consists of three modules, the feature extraction modu
le, the quality regression module, and the quality pooling module. For the feature extraction module, we fuse the features from intermediate layers of the convolutional neural network (CNN) network into final quality-aware feature representation, which enables the model to make full use of visual information from low-level to high-level. Specifically, the structure and texture similarities of feature maps extracted from all intermediate layers are calculated as the feature representation for the full reference (FR) VQA model, and the global mean and standard deviation of the final feature maps fused by intermediate feature maps are calculated as the feature representation for the no reference (NR) VQA model. For the quality regression module, we use the fully connected (FC) layer to regress the quality-aware features into frame-level scores. Finally, a subjectively-inspired temporal pooling strategy is adopted to pool frame-level scores into the video-level score. The proposed model achieves the best performance among the state-of-the-art FR and NR VQA models on the Compressed UGC VQA database and also achieves pretty good performance on the in-the-wild UGC VQA databases.
We present an automatic COVID1-19 diagnosis framework from lung CT images. The focus is on signal processing and classification on small datasets with efforts putting into exploring data preparation and augmentation to improve the generalization capa
bility of the 2D CNN classification models. We propose a unique and effective data augmentation method using multiple Hounsfield Unit (HU) normalization windows. In addition, the original slice image is cropped to exclude background, and a filter is applied to filter out closed-lung images. For the classification network, we choose to use 2D Densenet and Xception with the feature pyramid network (FPN). To further improve the classification accuracy, an ensemble of multiple CNN models and HU windows is used. On the training/validation dataset, we achieve a patient classification accuracy of 93.39%.
An important scenario for image quality assessment (IQA) is to evaluate image restoration (IR) algorithms. The state-of-the-art approaches adopt a full-reference paradigm that compares restored images with their corresponding pristine-quality images.
However, pristine-quality images are usually unavailable in blind image restoration tasks and real-world scenarios. In this paper, we propose a practical solution named degraded-reference IQA (DR-IQA), which exploits the inputs of IR models, degraded images, as references. Specifically, we extract reference information from degraded images by distilling knowledge from pristine-quality images. The distillation is achieved through learning a reference space, where various degraded images are encouraged to share the same feature statistics with pristine-quality images. And the reference space is optimized to capture deep image priors that are useful for quality assessment. Note that pristine-quality images are only used during training. Our work provides a powerful and differentiable metric for blind IRs, especially for GAN-based methods. Extensive experiments show that our results can even be close to the performance of full-reference settings.
