Self-Supervised One-Step Diffusion Refinement for Snapshot Compressive Imaging

Snapshot compressive imaging (SCI) captures multispectral images (MSIs) using a single coded two-dimensional (2-D) measurement, but reconstructing high-fidelity MSIs from these compressed inputs remains a fundamentally ill-posed challenge. Recent diffusion-based methods improve quality but are limited by scarce MSI training data, domain shifts from RGB-pretrained models, and slow multi-step sampling. These drawbacks restrict their practicality in real-world applications. Unlike prior approaches that rely on expensive iterative refinement or subspace-based diffusion embeddings (e.g., DiffSCI, PSR-SCI)—we introduce a fundamentally different paradigm: a self-supervised One-Step Diffusion (OSD) framework designed specifically for SCI. The key novelty lies in using a single-step diffusion refiner to correct an initial reconstruction, eliminating iterative denoising entirely while preserving generative quality. Moreover, we adopt a self-supervised equivariant learning strategy to train both the predictor and refiner directly from raw 2-D measurements, enabling generalization to unseen domains without ground-truth MSI. To further address limited MSI data, we design a band-selection–driven distillation strategy that transfers core generative priors from large-scale RGB datasets, effectively bridging the domain gap. Extensive experiments confirm that our approach sets a new standard—yielding PSNR gains of 3.44dB, 1.61dB, and 0.28dB on the Harvard, NTIRE, and ICVL datasets respectively, while cutting reconstruction time from 8.9s to just 0.22s per image. These gains in efficiency and adaptability advance SCI reconstruction, enabling accurate and practical real-world deployment.

OTLRM: Orthogonal Learning-based Low-Rank Metric for Multi-Dimensional Inverse Problems

In real-world scenarios, complex data such as multispectral images and multi-frame videos inherently exhibit robust low-rank property. This property is vital for multi-dimensional inverse problems, such as tensor completion, spectral imaging reconstruction, and multispectral image denoising. Existing tensor singular value decomposition (t-SVD) definitions rely on hand-designed or pre-given transforms, which lack flexibility for defining tensor nuclear norm (TNN). The TNN-regularized optimization problem is solved by the singular value thresholding (SVT) operator, which leverages the t-SVD framework to obtain the low-rank tensor. However, it's quite complicated to introduce SVT into deep neural network due to the numerical instability problem in solving the derivatives of the eigenvectors. In this paper, we introduce a novel data-driven generative low-rank t-SVD model based on the learnable orthogonal transform, which can be naturally solved under its representation. Prompted by the linear algebra theorem of the Householder transformation, our learnable orthogonal transform is achieved by constructing an endogenously orthogonal matrix adaptable to neural networks, optimizing it as arbitrary orthogonal matrices. Additionally, we propose a low-rank solver as a generalization of SVT, which utilizes an efficient representation of generative networks to obtain low-rank structures. Extensive experiments highlight its significant restoration enhancements.

Smooth Tensor Qatar Riyal Decomposition for Dynamic MRI Reconstruction

Dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) speed and imaging quality have always been a crucial issue in medical imaging research. Most existing methods characterize the tensor rank-based minimization to reconstruct dMRI from sampling $\bf k$ - $t$ space data. However, (1) these approaches that unfold the tensor along each dimension destroy the inherent structure of dMR images. (2) they focus on preserving global information only, while ignoring the local details reconstruction such as the spatial piece-wise smoothness and sharp boundaries. To overcome these obstacles, we suggest a novel low-rank tensor decomposition approach by integrating tensor Qatar Riyal (QR) decomposition, low-rank tensor nuclear norm, and asymmetric total variation to reconstruct dMRI, named TQRTV. Specifically, while preserving the tensor inherent structure by utilizing tensor nuclear norm minimization to approximate tensor rank, QR decomposition reduces the dimensions in the low-rank constraint term, thereby improving the reconstruction performance. TQRTV further exploits the asymmetric total variation regularizer to capture local details. Numerical experiments demonstrate that the proposed reconstruction approach is superior to the existing ones.

Spectral Compressive Imaging via Unmixing-driven Subspace Diffusion Refinement

Spectral Compressive Imaging (SCI) reconstruction is inherently ill-posed because a single observation admits multiple plausible reconstructions. Traditional deterministic methods struggle to effectively recover high-frequency details. Although diffusion models offer promising solutions to this challenge, their application is constrained by the limited training data and high computational demands associated with multispectral images (MSIs), making direct diffusion training impractical. To address these issues, we propose a novel Predict-and-unmixing-driven-Subspace-Refine framework (PSR-SCI). This framework begins with a light-weight predictor that produces an initial, rough estimate of the MSI. Subsequently, we introduce a unmixing-driven reversible spectral embedding module that decomposes the MSI into subspace images and spectral coefficients. This compact representation facilitates the adaptation of pre-trained RGB diffusion models and focuses refinement processes on high-frequency details, thereby enabling efficient diffusion generation with minimal MSI data. Additionally, we design a high-dimensional guidance mechanism enforcing SCI consistency during sampling. The refined subspace image is then reconstructed back into an MSI using the reversible embedding, yielding the final MSI with full spectral resolution. Experimental results on the standard KAIST and zero-shot datasets NTIRE, ICVL, and Harvard show that PSR-SCI enhances overall visual quality and delivers PSNR and SSIM results competitive with state-of-the-art diffusion, transformer, and deep-unfolding baselines. This framework provides a robust alternative to traditional deterministic SCI reconstruction methods.

Color video snapshot compressive imaging (SCI) employs computational imaging techniques to capture multiple sequential video frames in a single Bayer-patterned measurement. With the increasing popularity of quad-Bayer pattern in mainstream smartphone cameras for capturing high-resolution videos, mobile photography has become more accessible to a wider audience. However, existing color video SCI reconstruction algorithms are designed based on the traditional Bayer pattern. When applied to videos captured by quad-Bayer cameras, these algorithms often result in color distortion and ineffective demosaicing, rendering them impractical for primary equipment. To address this challenge, we propose the MambaSCI method, which leverages the Mamba and UNet architectures for efficient reconstruction of quad-Bayer patterned color video SCI. To the best of our knowledge, our work presents the first algorithm for quad-Bayer patterned SCI reconstruction, and also the initial application of the Mamba model to this task. Specifically, we customize Residual-Mamba-Blocks, which residually connect the Spatial-Temporal Mamba (STMamba), Edge-Detail-Reconstruction (EDR) module, and Channel Attention (CA) module. Respectively, STMamba is used to model long-range spatial-temporal dependencies with linear complexity, EDR is for better edge-detail reconstruction, and CA is used to compensate for the missing channel information interaction in Mamba model. Experiments demonstrate that MambaSCI surpasses state-of-the-art methods with lower computational and memory costs. PyTorch style pseudo-code for the core modules is provided in the supplementary materials. Code is at https: //github. com/PAN083/MambaSCI.
