• Abstract: This paper presents a novel method for the reconstruction of images from samples located at non-integer positions, called mesh. This is a common scenario for many image processing applications, such as super-resolution, warping or virtual view generation in multi-camera systems. The proposed method relies on a set of initial estimates that are later refined by a new reliability-based content-adaptive framework that employs denoising in order to reduce the reconstruction error. The reliability of the initial estimate is computed so stronger denoising is applied to less reliable estimates. The proposed technique can improve the reconstruction quality by more than 2 dB (in terms of PSNR) with respect to the initial estimate and it outperforms the state-of-the-art denoising-based refinement by up to 0.7 dB.

  We propose a mixed training procedure for image restoration neural networks, relying on both natural and synthetic images, that yields a strong improvement of this acutance metric without impairing fidelity terms. The feasibility of the approach is demonstrated both on the denoising of RGB images and the full development of RAW images, opening the path to a systematic improvement of the texture acutance of real imaging devices.

• Uncertainty-Aware Null Space Networks for Data-Consistent Image Reconstruction [0.0]
  State-of-the-art reconstruction methods have been developed based on recent advances in deep learning. For such approaches to be used in safety-critical domains such as medical imaging, the network reconstruction should not only provide the user with a reconstructed image, but also with some level of confidence in the reconstruction. This work is the first approach to solving inverse problems that additionally models data-dependent uncertainty by estimating an input-dependent scale map.
