• Abstract: Recently, deep convolutional neural network methods have achieved an excellent performance in image superresolution (SR), but they can not be easily applied to embedded devices due to large memory cost. To solve this problem, we propose a pyramidal dense attention network (PDAN) for lightweight image super-resolution in this paper. In our method, the proposed pyramidal dense learning can gradually increase the width of the densely connected layer inside a pyramidal dense block to extract deep features efficiently. Meanwhile, the adaptive group convolution that the number of groups grows linearly with dense convolutional layers is introduced to relieve the parameter explosion. Besides, we also present a novel joint attention to capture cross-dimension interaction between the spatial dimensions and channel dimension in an efficient way for providing rich discriminative feature representations. Extensive experimental results show that our method achieves superior performance in comparison with the state-of-the-art lightweight SR methods.

  This paper focuses on how to embed the high-dimensional spatial-spectral information of hyperspectral (HS) images efficiently and effectively. We formulate HS embedding as an approximation of the posterior distribution of a set of carefully-defined HS embedding events. Then, we incorporate the proposed feature embedding scheme into a source-consistent super-resolution framework that is physically-interpretable. Experiments over three common benchmark datasets demonstrate that PDE-Net achieves superior performance over state-of-the-art methods.
