Manifold Prior Guided Deep Unfolding for Hyperspectral Image Reconstruction

Abstract

Hyperspectral Image (HSI) reconstruction has made substantial progress with the deep unfolding framework by decomposing the problem into a projection module and a denoiser module. Nevertheless, existing methods still exhibit limitations of insufficient matching with HSI data. The issues lie in two aspects: 1) the data-consistency projection module applies a fixed gradient descent step while ignoring the spectral content adaptivity of HSI; 2) the denoiser module either suffers from high computational complexity or is limited to the local receptive field, failing to efficiently capture the global spatial-spectral dependencies. In this paper, we propose a deep unfolding framework centered on a two-stage manifold learning strategy to obtain a degradation-free structural prior, which is then strategically injected into both the projection and denoiser modules. In the data-consistency projection, a prior-guided spectral weight mechanism is introduced to adaptively modulate the weight of spectral band. In the denoiser module, a manifold-guided Mamba is proposed to achieve the structure-aware extraction of spatial-spectral features through prior modulation. Quantitative and visual comparisons on synthetic and real-world datasets show that the proposed method significantly outperforms existing state-of-the-art approaches, while maintaining the structural interpretability of the unfolding framework.
