DynGhost: Temporally-Modelled Transformer for Dynamic Ghost Imagings

Read the original on arXiv AI →

DynGhost is a transformer-based architecture designed for dynamic ghost imaging, addressing two key limitations of prior methods: the lack of temporal coherence exploitation and the assumption of Gaussian noise. It alternates spatial and temporal attention blocks and incorporates a quantum-aware training framework that uses realistic detector simulations (SNSPDs, SPADs, SiPMs) and Anscombe variance-stabilizing normalization to handle Poissonian noise. Experiments on multiple benchmarks show that DynGhost surpasses traditional reconstruction methods and existing deep learning models, especially in dynamic and photon-starved scenarios.

QiT: Quantum-Inspired Transformer for Visual Recognition Task

QiT is a Quantum‑Inspired Transformer designed for visual recognition tasks. It replaces quantum neural network concepts with scalable classical operations: angle‑inspired encoding of image tokens, self‑attention over periodic features approximating quantum fidelity kernels, and gated multiplicative emulation of variational circuit interactions. The model achieves competitive performance on image‑classification benchmarks, matching a classical Transformer while avoiding the high runtime costs of simulated quantum models.

SlowFast-SCI: Slow-Fast Deep Unfolding Learning for Spectral Compressive Imaging

SlowFast‑SCI introduces a dual‑speed deep‑unfolding framework for spectral compressive imaging that combines a slow, pre‑trained backbone with a fast, test‑time adaptation stage. The slow phase distills a priors‑based model into a compact fast‑unfolding network, while the fast phase embeds lightweight modules that self‑supervise at test time without retraining the backbone. This design yields significant reductions in parameters and FLOPs, improves out‑of‑distribution PSNR by up to 5.79 dB, and accelerates adaptation four‑fold, all while remaining modular enough to integrate with any existing deep‑unfolding system.
