Abstract:
Intrinsic structures of high-dimensional
visual data often have the properties of low dimensionality, sparsity, or
degeneracy. By discovering and properly harnessing these intrinsic structures,
groundbreaking results have been achieved in the past decade on diverse
applications in the domains of signal/image processing, computer vision, and
machine learning. This talk aims to present the very recent breakthroughs in
image processing research. These results are achieved by leveraging new
powerful, more advanced sparse representation models and by developing
efficient large-scale optimization algorithms.
This talk will
present the very recent breakthroughs of sparse/low-rank models in image
processing. These results are essentially obtained by properly harnessing these
rich low-dimensional structures prevailing in natural images, using carefully
designed more advanced models with sparsity/low-rank constriants, for various
low-level vision tasks including image de-noising, de-blurring,
super-resolution etc. We will specially show that how local sparsity/low-rank
models and non-local self-similarity of natural images are exploited to achieve
these breakthrough results.
