Adaptive Sampling for Linear Sensing Systems via Langevin Dynamics
Adaptive or dynamic signal sampling in sensing systems can adapt subsequent sampling strategies based on acquired signals, thereby potentially improving image quality and speed. This paper proposes a Bayesian method for adaptive sampling based on greedy variance reduction and stochastic gradient Langevin dynamics (SGLD). The image priors involved can be either analytical or neural network-based. Notably, the learned image priors generalize well to out-of-distribution test cases that have different statistics than the training dataset. As a real-world validation, the method is applied to accelerate the acquisition of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Compared to non-adaptive sampling, the proposed method effectively improved the image quality by 2-3 dB in PSNR, and improved the restoration of subtle details.
