Sparse representation is efficient to approximately recover signals by a linear composition of a few bases from an over-complete dictionary. However, in the scenario of data compression, its efficiency and popularity are hindered due to the extra overhead for encoding the sparse coefficients. Therefore, how to establish an accurate rate model in sparse coding and dictionary learning becomes meaningful,...
In this paper, we propose a novel concept in evaluating the visual information when perceiving natural images—the entropy of primitive (EoP). Sparse representation has been successfully applied in a wide variety of signal processing and analysis applications due to its high efficiency in dealing with rich varied and directional information contained in natural scenes. Inspired by this observation,...
Recently, an increasing number of tone-mapping operators (TMOs) have been proposed in order to display high dynamic nge (HDR) images on low dynamic range (LDR) devices. Developing perceptually consistent image quality assessment (QA) measures for TMO is highly desired because traditional LDR based IQA methods cannot support the cross dynamic range quality comparison. In this paper, a novel objective...
Nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) is an effective speech separation approach of extracting discriminative components of different speaker. However, traditional NMF focuses only on the additive combination of the components and ignores the dependencies of speeches. Convolutive NMF (CNMF) captures the dependencies of speeches by overlapping components and achieves better separation performance...
In this paper, a novel full-reference (FR) image quality assessment (IQA) metric based on sparse representation is proposed. Sparse representation has been widely applied in many applications such as image denoising and restoration. It is a high-efficiency way in representing sparse and redundant natural images. Also it has been shown to be highly related to the human visual perception, which is characterized...
Sparse coding has shown its great potential in learning image feature representation. Recent developed methods such as group sparse coding prefer discovering the group relationships among examples and have achieved the state-of-the-art results in image classification. However, they suffer from poor robustness shortcomings in practice. This paper proposes a robust weighted supervised sparse coding...
Recently, a novel concept referred to as Entropy of Primitive (EoP) has been proposed for evaluating the visual information of natural images. The idea originates from the sparse representation, which has been successfully applied in a wide variety of signal processing and analysis tasks. This is because of the high efficiency of sparse representation in dealing with rich, varied and directional information...
In this paper, we propose a new reduced reference image quality assessment algorithm based on the recent advances in sparse coding and representation, particularly, the entropy of primitives (EoP). The EoP is defined in terms of the distribution of the primitives, which form an overcomplete dictionary to represent the natural scene by linear combination. Constructively, we develop a reduced reference...
