This paper deals with a super-resolution that improves the resolution of side scan sonar images using learning-based compressive sensing. Learning-based compressive sensing combined with deep learning and compressive sensing takes a structure of a feed-forward network and parameters are set automatically through learning. In particular, we propose a method that can effectively extract additional information required in the super-resolution process through various initialization methods. Representative experimental results show that the proposed method provides improved performance in terms of Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) and Structure Similarity Index Measure (SSIM) than conventional methods.

In this paper, we propose a learning based compressive sensing algorithm for the purpose of side scan sonar image denoising. The proposed method is based on Iterative Shrinkage and Thresholding Algorithm (ISTA) framework and incorporates a powerful strategy that reinforces the non-linearity of deep learning network for improved performance. The proposed method consists of three essential modules. The first module consists of a non-linear transform for input and initialization while the second module contains the ISTA block that maps the input features to sparse space and performs inverse transform. The third module is to transform from non-linear feature space to pixel space. Superiority in noise removal and memory efficiency of the proposed method is verified through various experiments.
