Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides diverse perspectives on anatomical structures, enabling multi-contrast super-resolution (SR) techniques that leverage complementary information across modalities to significantly enhance image quality. However, most existing multi-contrast SR methods are computationally intensive and lack lightweight solutions. In this study, we propose a novel lightweight progressive aggregation network (PAN) architecture for multi-contrast MRI SR. Our approach introduces multi-perception and residual feature aggregation mechanisms, which effectively capture and integrate anatomical details from low-resolution and reference images. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our lightweight method achieves superior efficiency, significantly outperforming other multi-contrast MRI SR methods in experiments, offering a promising solution for resource-constrained multi-contrast MRI super-resolution scenarios where computational efficiency is critical.

Quantization and chroma downsampling are two primary operations that introduce distortions in the JPEG compression. However, most existing blind methods treat artifacts removal as a direct mapping from compressed images to clean ones. They fail to explicitly model the underlying degradation process or design targeted compensation mechanisms. As a result, these methods can only partially remove compression artifacts and struggle to generalize to diverse or unseen degradation scenarios. In this work, we present a novel perspective that formulates artifacts removal as an approximate inversion of the lossy steps in JPEG. Based on this view, we propose an Inverse JPEG Compression Network (IJCN), which aims to progressively compensate for quantization errors and color distortions. Specifically, we first design a Learnable Offset Guidance Module (LOGM) to approximate inverse quantization by modeling both intra-block and inter-block coefficient correlations for predicting rounding offsets. In addition, we propose a Quantization Table Guidance Module (QTGM) that leverages the quantization tables to guide the reconstruction network in mitigating color distortions. By modeling compensation mechanisms under the guidance of quantization tables, IJCN effectively eliminates artifacts across varying compression levels. Extensive experiments demonstrate that IJCN outperforms existing methods in both quantitative metrics and visual quality.

3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) has emerged as a high-fidelity and efficient paradigm for online free-viewpoint video (FVV) reconstruction, offering viewers rapid responsiveness and immersive experiences. However, existing online methods face challenge in prohibitive storage requirements primarily due to point-wise modeling that fails to exploit the motion properties. To address this limitation, we propose a novel Compact Gaussian Streaming (ComGS) framework, leveraging the locality and consistency of motion in dynamic scene, that models object-consistent Gaussian point motion through keypoint-driven motion representation. By transmitting only the keypoint attributes, this framework provides a more storage-efficient solution. Specifically, we first identify a sparse set of motion-sensitive keypoints localized within motion regions using a viewspace gradient difference strategy. Equipped with these keypoints, we propose an adaptive motion-driven mechanism that predicts a spatial influence field for propagating keypoint motion to neighboring Gaussian points with similar motion. Moreover, ComGS adopts an error-aware correction strategy for key frame reconstruction that selectively refines erroneous regions and mitigates error accumulation without unnecessary overhead. Overall, ComGS achieves a remarkable storage reduction of over 159 × compared to 3DGStream and 14 × compared to the SOTA method QUEEN, while maintaining competitive visual fidelity and rendering speed.
