Abstract: Existing leading methods for spectral reconstruction (SR) focus on designing deeper or wider convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to learn the end-to-end mapping from the RGB image to its hyperspectral image (HSI). These CNN-based methods achieve impressive restoration performance while showing limitations in capturing the long-range dependencies and self-similarity prior. To cope with this problem, we propose a novel Transformer-based method, Multi-stage Spectral-wise Transformer (MST++), for efficient spectral reconstruction. In particular, we employ Spectral-wise Multi-head Self-attention (S-MSA) that is based on the HSI spatially sparse while spectrally self-similar nature to compose the basic unit, Spectral-wise Attention Block (SAB). Then SABs build up Single-stage Spectral-wise Transformer (SST) that exploits a U-shaped structure to extract multi-resolution contextual information. Finally, our MST++, cascaded by several SSTs, progressively improves the reconstruction quality from coarse to fine. Comprehensive experiments show that our MST++ significantly outperforms other state-of-the-art methods. In the NTIRE 2022 Spectral Reconstruction Challenge, our approach won the First place.

Network Architecture

Our MST++ is mainly based on our work MST, which is accepted by CVPR 2022.

Comparison with State-of-the-art Methods

This repo is a baseline and toolbox containing 11 image restoration algorithms for Spectral Reconstruction.

We are going to enlarge our model zoo in the future.

Note: access code for Baidu Disk is mst1.

1. Create Envirement:

Python 3 (Recommend to use Anaconda)
NVIDIA GPU + CUDA

Python packages:

cd MST-plus-plus
pip install -r requirements.txt

2. Data Preparation:

Download training spectral images (Google Drive / Baidu Disk, code: mst1), training RGB images (Google Drive / Baidu Disk), validation spectral images (Google Drive / Baidu Disk), validation RGB images (Google Drive / Baidu Disk), and testing RGB images (Google Drive / Baidu Disk) from the competition website of NTIRE 2022 Spectral Reconstruction Challenge.
Place the training spectral images and validation spectral images to /MST-plus-plus/dataset/Train_Spec/.
Place the training RGB images and validation RGB images to /MST-plus-plus/dataset/Train_RGB/.
Place the testing RGB images to /MST-plus-plus/dataset/Test_RGB/.

Then this repo is collected as the following form:
