Hyperspectral Image Restoration and Super-resolution with Physics-Aware Deep Learning for Biomedical Applications

The paper introduces a self‑supervised, physics‑aware deep learning method for hyperspectral image restoration and super‑resolution in biomedical imaging. It achieves 16× pixel super‑resolution and 12× faster imaging without external training data, preserving biological integrity across synthetic and experimental samples. The approach also reveals disease‑associated metabolic changes and offers physical insights into the model’s workings, with all code released as open source.

Learning Spatial-Spectral Refinement and Calibrating Complementary Observations for Hyperspectral Image Super-Resolution

The paper introduces TSR-ITNR, a two‑stage, self‑supervised framework for hyperspectral image super‑resolution that fuses high‑resolution multispectral and low‑resolution hyperspectral data. Stage 1 refines an implicit Tucker representation using a low‑rank spatial tensor and spectral basis, enhanced by a pretrained denoiser, to capture fine spatial details and spectral correlations. Stage 2 applies parameter‑free calibration to extract complementary corrections from both observations, preserving geometry and ensuring orthogonal complementarity, leading to superior reconstruction quality demonstrated on benchmark datasets and improved downstream segmentation performance.

Cross-Modality Structural Guidance in 3D Latent Diffusion for Robust FLAIR Super-Resolution

The paper introduces MR‑DiffuSR, a 3‑D latent diffusion framework that uses high‑resolution T1w structural priors to guide super‑resolution of thick‑slice FLAIR MRI scans. By applying cross‑modality structural swin attention and a mixed‑scale degradation strategy, the method avoids hallucinations and remains robust across varying slice thicknesses. On ADNI datasets, MR‑DiffuSR outperforms CNN and 2‑D diffusion baselines, achieving high PSNR, SSIM, and low LPIPS, and maintains strong white‑matter hyperintensity segmentation performance even at 7 mm equivalent slice thickness.

Perceptually Regularized Diffusion Model for Image Super-Resolution

The paper introduces a perceptually regularized diffusion framework for image super‑resolution, adding perceptual‑loss based regularization to the standard diffusion training objective. This approach incorporates prior knowledge to improve training convergence and encourages the recovery of meaningful image features. Experiments on benchmark datasets show enhanced perceptual quality while maintaining competitive distortion metrics.

PhyMRI-SR: Toward Physics-Aware MRI Image Super-Resolution

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) super-resolution is vital for improving diagnostic accessibility, yet most methods treat it as a deterministic mapping from a fixed low-resolution input to a high-resolution target. This overlooks a key property of MRI acquisition physics: spatial resolution and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) are inherently coupled, making any given low-resolution scan merely one of many possible realizations under varying acquisition trade-offs.
