Compressive sensing super resolution from multiple observations with application to passive millimeter wave images

摘要

In this work we propose a novel framework to obtain high resolution images from compressed sensing imaging systems capturing multiple low resolution images of the same scene. The proposed approach of Compressed Sensing Super Resolution (CSSR), combines existing compressed sensing reconstruction algorithms with a low-resolution to high-resolution approach based on the use of a super Gaussian regularization term. The reconstruction alternates between compressed sensing reconstruction and super resolution reconstruction, including registration parameter estimation. The image estimation subproblem is solved using majorization-minimization while the compressed sensing reconstruction becomes an l(1)-minimization subject to a quadratic constraint. The performed experiments on grayscale and synthetically compressed real millimeter wave images, demonstrate the capability of the proposed framework to provide very good quality super resolved images from multiple low resolution compressed acquisitions.
