Abstract

Coded aperture-based compression has proven to be an effective approach for high-density cold data storage. Nevertheless, its limited decoding speed represents a significant challenge for its broader application. We introduce a novel, to the best of our knowledge, decoding method leveraging the fast and flexible denoising network (FFDNet), capable of decoding a coded aperture-based compressive data page within 30.64 s. The practicality of the method has been confirmed in the decoding of monochromatic photo arrays, full-color photos, and dynamic videos. In experimental trials, the variance between decoded results obtained via the FFDNet-based method and the FFDNet-absent method in terms of average PSNR is less than 1 dB, while realizing a decoding speed enhancement of over 100-fold when employing the FFDNet-based method.
