abstract: Image super-resolution (SR) is a low-level image processing task, which has manyapplications such as medical imaging, satellite image processing, and video enhancement,
etc. Given a low resolution image, it aims to reconstruct a high resolution
image. The problem is ill-posed since there can be more than one high resolution
image corresponding to the same low-resolution image. To address this problem, a
number of machine learning-based approaches have been proposed.
In this dissertation, I present my works on single image super-resolution (SISR)
and accelerated magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (a.k.a. super-resolution on MR
images), followed by the investigation on transfer learning for accelerated MRI reconstruction.
For the SISR, a dictionary-based approach and two reconstruction based
approaches are presented. To be precise, a convex dictionary learning (CDL)
algorithm is proposed by constraining the dictionary atoms to be formed by nonnegative
linear combination of the training data, which is a natural, desired property.
Also, two reconstruction-based single methods are presented, which make use
of (i)the joint regularization, where a group-residual-based regularization (GRR) and
a ridge-regression-based regularization (3R) are combined; (ii)the collaborative representation
and non-local self-similarity. After that, two deep learning approaches
are proposed, aiming at reconstructing high-quality images from accelerated MRI
acquisition. Residual Dense Block (RDB) and feedback connection are introduced
in the proposed models. In the last chapter, the feasibility of transfer learning for
accelerated MRI reconstruction is discussed. / Dissertation/Thesis / Doctoral Dissertation Computer Science 2020
