Compressive sensing inspired self-supervised single-pixel imaging

Single-pixel imaging (SPI) is a promising imaging modality with distinctive advantages in strongly perturbed environments. Existing SPI methods lack physical sparsity constraints and overlook the integration of local and global features, leading to severe noise vulnerability, structural distortions and blurred details. To address these limitations, we propose SISTA-Net, a compressive sensing-inspired self-supervised method for single-pixel imaging. SISTA-Net unfolds the Iterative Shrinkage-Thresholding Algorithm (ISTA) into an interpretable network consisting of a data fidelity module and a proximal mapping module. The fidelity module adopts a hybrid CNN-Visual State Space Model (VSSM) architecture to integrate local and global feature modeling, enhancing reconstruction integrity and fidelity. We leverage deep nonlinear networks as adaptive sparse transforms combined with a learnable soft-thresholding operator to impose explicit physical sparsity in the latent domain, enabling noise suppression and robustness to interference even at extremely low sampling rates. Extensive experiments on multiple simulation scenarios demonstrate that SISTA-Net outperforms state-of-the-art methods by 2.6 dB in PSNR. Real-world far-field underwater tests yield a 3.4 dB average PSNR improvement, validating its robust anti-interference capability.

Advancing Visual Reliability: Color-Accurate Underwater Image Enhancement for Real-Time Underwater Missions

Underwater image enhancement plays a crucial role in providing reliable visual information for underwater platforms, since strong absorption and scattering in water-related environments generally lead to image quality degradation. Existing high-performance methods often rely on complex architectures, which hinder deployment on underwater devices. Lightweight methods often sacrifice quality for speed and struggle to handle severely degraded underwater images. To address this limitation, we present a real-time underwater image enhancement framework with accurate color restoration. First, an Adaptive Weighted Channel Compensation module is introduced to achieve dynamic color recovery of the red and blue channels using the green channel as a reference anchor. Second, we design a Multi-branch Re-parameterized Dilated Convolution that employs multi-branch fusion during training and structural re-parameterization during inference, enabling large receptive field representation with low computational overhead. Finally, a Statistical Global Color Adjustment module is employed to optimize overall color performance based on statistical priors. Extensive experiments on eight datasets demonstrate that the proposed method achieves state-of-the-art performance across seven evaluation metrics. The model contains only 3,880 inference parameters and achieves an inference speed of 409 FPS. Our method improves the UCIQE score by 29.7% under diverse environmental conditions, and the deployment on ROV platforms and performance gains in downstream tasks further validate its superiority for real-time underwater missions.

Hypersimple Rings and Modules

In this paper a simple right R-module S over a ring R is called hypersimple if its injective hull E(S) is cyclic, and a ring R is called right hypersimple if every simple right R-module is hypersimple. We initiate a study of these new notions, and revisit Osofsky's work on hypercyclic rings, i.e. rings whose cyclic right modules have cyclic injective hulls.

When is every non central-unit a sum of two nilpotents?

A ring is said to satisfy the $2$-nil-sum property if every non central-unit is the sum of two nilpotents. We prove that a ring satisfies the $2$-nil-sum property iff it is either a simple ring with the $2$-nil-sum property or a commutative local ring with nil Jacobson radical, and we provide an example of a simple ring with the $2$-nil-sum property that is not commutative. Moreover, a simple right Goldie ring has the $2$-nil-sum property iff it is a field.

Matrices over a commutative ring as sums of three idempotents or three involutions

Motivated by Hirano-Tominaga's work \cite{HT} on rings for which every element is a sum of two idempotents and by de Seguins Pazzis's results \cite{de} on decomposing every matrix over a field of positive characteristic as a sum of idempotent matrices, we address decomposing every matrix over a commutative ring as a sum of three idempotent matrices and, respectively, as a sum of three involutive matrices.

Rings in which every unit is a sum of a nilpotent and an idempotent

A ring $R$ is a UU ring if every unit is unipotent, or equivalently if every unit is a sum of a nilpotent and an idempotent that commute. These rings have been investigated in Călugăreanu \cite{C} and in Danchev and Lam \cite{DL}. In this paper, two generalizations of UU rings are discussed. We study rings for which every unit is a sum of a nilpotent and an idempotent, and rings for which every unit is a sum of a nilpotent and two idempotents that commute with one another.

Rings in which every element is either a sum or a difference of a nilpotent and an idempotent

{Generalizing the notion of nil cleanness from \cite{D13}, in parallel to \cite{DM14}, we define the concept of {\it weak nil cleanness} for an arbitrary ring. Its comprehensive study in different ways is provided as well. A decomposition theorem of a weakly nil-clean ring is obtained. It is completely characterized when an abelian ring is {\it weakly nil-clean}.} It is also completely determined when a matrix ring over a division ring is weakly nil-clean.

Strong cleanness of the $2\times 2$ matrix ring over a general local ring

A ring $R$ is called strongly clean if every element of $R$ is the sum of a unit and an idempotent that commute with each other. A recent result of Borooah, Diesl and Dorsey \cite{BDD05a} completely characterized the commutative local rings $R$ for which ${\mathbb M}_n(R)$ is strongly clean. For a general local ring $R$ and $n>1$, however, it is unknown when the matrix ring ${\mathbb M}_n(R)$ is strongly clean. Here we completely determine the local rings $R$ for which ${\mathbb M}_2(R)$ is strongly clean.
