• Abstract: We present a novel method to reconstruct a spectral central view and its aligned disparity map from spatio-spectrally coded light fields. Since we do not reconstruct an intermediate full light field from the coded measurement, we refer to this as principal reconstruction. The coded light fields correspond to those captured by a light field camera in the unfocused design with a spectrally coded microlens array. In this application, the spectrally coded light field camera can be interpreted as a single-shot spectral depth camera. We investigate several multi-task deep learning methods and propose a new auxiliary loss-based training strategy to enhance the reconstruction performance. The results are evaluated using a synthetic as well as a new real-world spectral light field dataset that we captured using a custom-built camera. The results are compared to state-of-the art compressed sensing reconstruction and disparity estimation. We achieve a high reconstruction quality for both synthetic and real-world coded light fields. The disparity estimation quality is on par with or even outperforms state-of-the-art disparity estimation from uncoded RGB light fields.

  This paper presents the deep compensation network unfolding (DCUNet) for restoring light field (LF) images captured under low-light conditions. The framework uses the intermediate enhanced result to estimate the illumination map, which is then employed in the unfolding process to produce a new enhanced result. To properly leverage the unique characteristics of LF images, this paper proposes a pseudo-explicit feature interaction module.

  We put forth a novel formulation built upon Transformers, by treating light field super-resolution as a sequence-to-sequence reconstruction task. We propose a detail-preserving Transformer (termed as DPT), by leveraging gradient maps of light field to guide the sequence learning. DPT consists of two branches, with each associated with a Transformer for learning from an original or gradient image sequence.

  Light field (LF) images acquired by hand-held devices usually suffer from low spatial resolution. The high-dimensional spatiality characteristic and complex geometrical structure of LF images make the problem more challenging than traditional single-image SR. We propose a novel learning-based LF framework, in which each view of an LF image is first individually super-resolved.
