Abstract: A method includes extracting multiple shallow features from a low-resolution image using a shallow feature extractor that includes a quaternion convolutional network. The method also includes extracting multiple deep features from the multiple shallow features using a deep feature extractor that includes multiple quaternion residual distillation blocks (QRDBs), where each QRDB includes a quaternion self-attention module. The method further includes reconstructing the multiple deep features into a high-resolution image. Each QRDB may further include a quaternion gated deconvolutional feed forward network (QGDFN) configured to suppress one or more of the multiple deep features.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, and system that provides a holographic layer as a micro-lens array and/or a color filter array in an imager. The method of writing the holographic layer results in overlapping areas in the hologram for corresponding adjacent pixels in the imager which increases collection of light at the pixels, thereby increasing quantum efficiency.
