TY - GEN PB - Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/GlobalSIP.2016.7905824 N2 - Real-world data processing problems often involve multiple data modalities, e.g., panchromatic and multispectral images, positron emission tomography (PET) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images. As these modalities capture information associated with the same phenomenon, they must necessarily be correlated, although the precise relation is rarely known. In this paper, we propose a coupled dictionary learning (CDL) framework to automatically learn these relations. In particular, we propose a new data model to characterize both similarities and discrepancies between multimodal signals in terms of common and unique sparse representations with respect to a group of coupled dictionaries. However, learning these coupled dictionaries involves solving a highly non-convex structural dictionary learning problem. To address this problem, we design a coupled dictionary learning algorithm, referred to sequential recursive optimization (SRO) algorithm, to sequentially learn these dictionaries in a recursive manner. By capitalizing on our model and algorithm, we conceive a CDL based multimodal image super-resolution (SR) approach. Practical multispectral image SR experiments demonstrate that our SR approach outperforms the bicubic interpolation and the state-of-the-art dictionary learning based image SR approach, with Peak-SNR (PSNR) gains of up to 8.2 dB and 5.1 dB, respectively.
