Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) The famous block-wise compressive sensing (BCS) paradigm can greatly reduce the memory consumption of sensingmatrix compared with traditional image compressive methods. However, BCS paradigm still suffers from two issues. One is thatblock-wise sensing causes heavy block effect on the reconstructed image, which leads to degradation in the image quality metrics. Another is that the sate of art block wise image compressive sensing methods only use mean square error loss function to optimizetheir models, which causes the reconstructed images over smoothed. In this paper, we incorporate generative adversarial traininginto BCS paradigm and propose a new block wise image compressive sensing and reconstruction model called wganBCS, which acombination of traditional L2 loss and the wasserstein loss are used to optimize the model. We propose a modified wasserstein GAN(WGAN) network to deal with the block effect caused by the block wise compressive sensing. Specifically speaking, the generatornetwork will minimize the wasserstein distance calculated by the critic network to keep the reconstructed images visually authenticto ground truth images. Experimental result shows that our model is superior both in visual authenticity and the image qualitymetrics compared to most state of art image compressive sensing methods.
