Compressive sensing inspired self-supervised single-pixel imaging

Single-pixel imaging (SPI) is a promising imaging modality with distinctive advantages in strongly perturbed environments. Existing SPI methods lack physical sparsity constraints and overlook the integration of local and global features, leading to severe noise vulnerability, structural distortions and blurred details. To address these limitations, we propose SISTA-Net, a compressive sensing-inspired self-supervised method for single-pixel imaging. SISTA-Net unfolds the Iterative Shrinkage-Thresholding Algorithm (ISTA) into an interpretable network consisting of a data fidelity module and a proximal mapping module. The fidelity module adopts a hybrid CNN-Visual State Space Model (VSSM) architecture to integrate local and global feature modeling, enhancing reconstruction integrity and fidelity. We leverage deep nonlinear networks as adaptive sparse transforms combined with a learnable soft-thresholding operator to impose explicit physical sparsity in the latent domain, enabling noise suppression and robustness to interference even at extremely low sampling rates. Extensive experiments on multiple simulation scenarios demonstrate that SISTA-Net outperforms state-of-the-art methods by 2.6 dB in PSNR. Real-world far-field underwater tests yield a 3.4 dB average PSNR improvement, validating its robust anti-interference capability.

Advancing Visual Reliability: Color-Accurate Underwater Image Enhancement for Real-Time Underwater Missions

Underwater image enhancement plays a crucial role in providing reliable visual information for underwater platforms, since strong absorption and scattering in water-related environments generally lead to image quality degradation. Existing high-performance methods often rely on complex architectures, which hinder deployment on underwater devices. Lightweight methods often sacrifice quality for speed and struggle to handle severely degraded underwater images. To address this limitation, we present a real-time underwater image enhancement framework with accurate color restoration. First, an Adaptive Weighted Channel Compensation module is introduced to achieve dynamic color recovery of the red and blue channels using the green channel as a reference anchor. Second, we design a Multi-branch Re-parameterized Dilated Convolution that employs multi-branch fusion during training and structural re-parameterization during inference, enabling large receptive field representation with low computational overhead. Finally, a Statistical Global Color Adjustment module is employed to optimize overall color performance based on statistical priors. Extensive experiments on eight datasets demonstrate that the proposed method achieves state-of-the-art performance across seven evaluation metrics. The model contains only 3,880 inference parameters and achieves an inference speed of 409 FPS. Our method improves the UCIQE score by 29.7% under diverse environmental conditions, and the deployment on ROV platforms and performance gains in downstream tasks further validate its superiority for real-time underwater missions.
