Attention-Based Real Image Restoration [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and Learning Systems, 2020 Deep convolutional neural networks perform better on images containing spatially invariant degradations, also known as synthetic degradations; however, their performance is limited on real-degraded photographs and requires multiple-stage network modeling.

Pyramid Attention Network for Image Restoration
International Journal of Computer Vision, 2023 AbstractSelf-similarity refers to the image prior widely used in image restoration algorithms that small but similar patterns tend to occur at different locations and scales. However, recent advanced deep convolutional neural network-based methods for image restoration do not take full advantage of self-similarities by relying on self-attention neural ...

Attention Restoration Theory: A systematic review of the attention restoration potential of exposure to natural environments [PDF]
Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health, Part B, 2016 Attention Restoration Theory (ART) suggests the ability to concentrate may be restored by exposure to natural environments. Although widely cited, it is unclear as to the quantity of empirical evidence that supports this. A systematic review regarding the impact of exposure to natural environments on attention was conducted.

The relationship between students’ perceptions of the University of Pretoria’s on-campus green spaces and attention restoration [PDF]
Human Geographies: Journal of Studies and Research in Human Geography, 2017 Previous research has suggested that natural green areas provide several psychological benefits to individuals. One such benefit is the restoration of attention capacities, an advantage that is of particular importance to university students. The present
