Abstract
Mapping optimization algorithms into neural networks, deep unfolding networks (DUNs) have achieved impressive success in compressive sensing (CS). From the perspective of optimization, DUNs inherit a well-defined and interpretable structure from iterative steps. However, from the viewpoint of neural network design, most existing DUNs are inherently established based on traditional image-domain unfolding, which takes one-channel images as inputs and outputs between adjacent stages, resulting in insufficient information transmission capability and inevitable loss of the image details. In this paper, to break the above bottleneck, we first propose a generalized dual-domain optimization framework, which is general for inverse imaging and integrates the merits of both (1) image-domain and (2) convolutional-coding-domain priors to constrain the feasible region in the solution space. By unfolding the proposed framework into deep neural networks, we further design a novel Dual-Domain Deep Convolutional Coding Network (D3C2-Net) for CS imaging with the capability of transmitting high-throughput feature-level image representation through all the unfolded stages. Experiments on natural and MR images demonstrate that our D3C2-Net achieves higher performance and better accuracy-complexity trade-offs than other state-of-the-arts.
