MMA: Video Reconstruction for Spike Camera Based on Multiscale Temporal Modeling and Fine-Grained Attention

This paper presents a Multiscale Temporal Correlation Learning with the Mamba-Fused Attention Model (MMA), an efficient and effective method for reconstructing a video clip from a spike stream. Spike cameras offer unique advantages for capturing rapid scene changes with high temporal resolution. A spike stream contains sufficient information for multiple image reconstructions. However, existing methods generate only a single image at a time for a given spike stream, which results in excessive redundant computations between consecutive frames when aiming at restoring a video clip, thereby increasing computational costs significantly. The proposed MMA addresses such challenges by constructing a spike-to-video model, directly producing an image sequence at a time. Specifically, we propose a U-shaped Multiscale Temporal Correlation Learning (MTCL) to fuse the features at different temporal resolutions for clear video reconstruction. At each scale, we introduce a Fine-Grained Attention (FGA) module for fine-spatial context modeling within a patch and a Mamba module for integrating features across patches. Adopting a lightweight U-shaped structure and fine-grained feature extraction at each level, our method reconstructs high-quality image sequences quickly. The experimental results show that the proposed MMA surpasses current state-of-the-art methods in image quality, computation cost, and model size.
