Coupled Non-negative Matrix Factorization with Deep Part-Based Feature Learning for Low-Resolution Image Recognition

The existing low-resolution (LR) image recognition methods based on coupled relationship learning of high- and low-resolution images usually take similar feature extraction steps for both high- and low-resolution images. However, the high- and low-resolution features thus obtained may differ in terms of information content and information scale. This leads to a robust coupled relationship between the obtained high- and low-resolution images feature is difficult to be learned. Therefore, a coupled non-negative matrix factorization with a deep part-based feature learning method is proposed for the LR image recognition task. This method is divided into two main steps. Firstly, the depth non-negative matrix factorization method by graph convolution is used to obtain a robust depth underlying basis images of HR images for feature representation. Then the coupled relationship between the depth basis images feature of the HR images and the LR basis images feature is learned. Learning More Robust LR Basis images features using depth underlying features of HR images to assist LR images. Improve the expression of LR basis images of features. Experimental results show that the method can provide higher recognition performance. It outperforms existing image recognition methods in image recognition.
