title: Adaptive single-pixel imaging based on guided coefficients.
abstract: The existing adaptive single-pixel imaging methods suffer from a waste of sampling resources. The sampling resources are not used adequately for superior localization of significant coefficients and reconstruction. In this paper, an adaptive single-pixel imaging method via the guided coefficients in the Haar wavelet tree is proposed. The goal is to achieve high quality imaging with less sampling resources. The guided coefficients are selected from the unsampled coefficients by a proposed same-scale prediction method based on the sampled coefficients. These guided coefficients are used to localize the significant coefficients with higher resolution belonging to the sampled coefficients and the significant coefficients belonging to the guided coefficients by a proposed guided prediction method. The significant guided coefficients are then used in the composite reconstruction method to reconstruct the image. Performance analysis shows that the proposed method reduces waste of the sampling resources and localizes more significant coefficients. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method improves the imaging quality in terms of peak signal-to-noise ratio up to 29.7 dB for the images containing regular and chaotic textures in the noise-free environment. The sampling rate for the same imaging quality can be reduced up to 56%. Under the noisy condition, the proposed method also achieves better imaging quality at a lower sampling rate.
