Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of image reconstruction, and the present invention relates to an image reconstruction method, system and storage medium based on a tensor nuclear norm model. Background Art

[0002] In the field of digital image processing, image reconstruction is an important technology that aims to restore images that are damaged, noisy, distorted, etc. through relevant algorithms and methods. Image reconstruction plays an important role in improving image quality and clarity. Images, videos, and derived data all contain a large amount of high-dimensional data. Due to the spatial complexity of high-dimensional data, high-dimensional data processing is often converted into matrix or vector form, which undoubtedly destroys the structural characteristics of the data itself and does not fully utilize the internal potential structural characteristics. Tensors are the general form of vectors and matrices that are expanded from low dimensions to high dimensions in organizational structure, and can maintain the internal structure. Using tensors to express image data does not require separating channels, time, and space dimensions, and can be fully expressed at one time. Although tensor data can express the structural characteristics of high-dimensional data, it is usually low-rank or can be approximated as low-rank, so the low-rank matrix integrity method can be extended to the tensor case for image data recovery. However, in existing methods, either all the singular values ​​of the matrix of interest are shrunk, or the defined tensor nuclear norm has direction dependence, resulting in a decrease in recovery performance.

[0003] The Tensor Nuclear Norm Minimization method uses the tensor nuclear norm as a regularization term for low-rank tensors and restores low-rank tensors by minimizing the tensor nuclear norm. The tensor nuclear norm has a direction-dependent characteristic, so methods such as tensor product (T-product) and tensor TNN (Truncate nuclear norm) have deviations in the calculation of tensor rank, resulting in poor results.

[0076] In another embodiment, a computer storage medium stores a computer program, and when the computer program is executed, the image reconstruction method based on the tensor nuclear norm model is implemented. The above image reconstruction method is adopted and will not be described in detail here.

[0077] In another embodiment, an image reconstruction system based on a tensor nuclear norm model includes:

[0081] Specifically, the workflow of the image reconstruction system based on the tensor nuclear norm model is described below by taking a preferred embodiment as an example:

[0082] From a subset of partial observations Recovering the tensor The mathematical basis of is a low-rank optimization problem:

[0083] (1)

[0084] in represents the real number space of dimension N, Represents each dimension, ; represents the rank function, For the mapping operator:

[0085]

[0086] Formula (1) is an NP problem. In order to make the low-rank tensor integrity problem solvable, various tensor nuclear norms have been proposed as alternative rank functions based on different tensor decomposition methods. We propose a method for optimizing the calculation of reconstructed image data based on the tensor nuclear norm model to achieve efficient and accurate reconstruction of undersampled images and video data. A new weighted orientation-independent truncated tensor nuclear norm (WOITNN) is defined, and the model is optimized using the modified ADMM (Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers iteration) optimization algorithm. By comparing with the current image reconstruction methods based on low-rank tensors, significant reconstruction effects are achieved.

[0087] The specific implementation method is as follows:

[0088] First, the image is represented as a third-order tensor. The first dimension represents the image height, the second dimension represents the image width, and the third dimension represents the number of image channels, and the tensor model is expanded. Let the tensor Mode n Expand for:

[0090] definition For tensors The pattern n expansion, inverse operation Recover a tensor of mode n.

[0091] Secondly, the weighted orientation-independent truncated tensor nuclear norm (WOITNN) is defined.

[0092] The Tensor Nuclear Norm Minimization method uses the tensor nuclear norm as a regularization term for low-rank tensors and restores low-rank tensors by minimizing the tensor nuclear norm. The tensor nuclear norm has a direction-dependent characteristic, so methods such as tensor product (T-product) and tensor TNN (Truncate nuclear norm) have deviations in the calculation of tensor rank and result in poor results. The proposed WOITNN is:

[0093] (3)

[0094] In the formula , , , for The SVD decomposition of the orthogonal matrix, represents the matrix transpose, It is a diagonal matrix.

[0095] According to the defined tensor nuclear norm, the optimization model for incomplete observation tensor recovery is obtained: (4)

[0123] Experimental Results

[0124] 1. Image data

[0125] Color images contain red, green, and blue (RGB), which can be represented by a third-order tensor. Due to problems such as image corruption and partial sampling, the image cannot obtain complete observation data. We use PSNR and SSIM to evaluate the image reconstruction performance. We use natural landscape, plant, sky, mountain and other image examples 1-8 for performance comparison. The size of each example image is In the experiments, pixels were randomly sampled with sampling rates ranging from 10% to 90%.
