Information optimal scalable compressive imager demonstrator

We present a compressive imager demonstrator based on a scalable, parallel architecture. It primarily utilizes information-optimal projections and a Piece-wise Linear Minimum Mean Square Error Estimator (PLE-MMSE) combined with a block-based statistical model of natural images. Such system delivers high-resolution images from low resolution sensor with near real-time snapshots. This testbed provides a highly programmable compressive imager that allows testing of a variety of projection designs for different tasks (e.g. random binary, PCA) and also enables adaptive or dynamic designs.
