Photon counting lidar has become an invaluable tool for 3D depth imaging due to the fine-precision it can achieve over long ranges. However, high frame rate, high resolution lidar devices produce an enormous amount of time-of-flight (ToF) data which can hinder the deployment of real-time systems. In…
Deep networks provide state-of-the-art performance in multiple imaging inverse problems ranging from medical imaging to computational photography. However, most existing networks are trained with clean signals which are often hard or impossible to obtain. Equivariant imaging (EI) is a recent self-su…
Single-photon light detection and ranging (lidar) captures depth and intensity information of a 3D scene. Reconstructing a scene from observed photons is a challenging task due to spurious detections associated with background illumination sources. To tackle this problem, there is a plethora of 3D r…
In various imaging problems, we only have access to compressed measurements of the underlying signals, hindering most learning-based strategies which usually require pairs of signals and associated measurements for training. Learning only from compressed measurements is impossible in general, as the…
Deep learning is emerging as a new paradigm for solving inverse imaging problems. However, the deep learning methods often lack the assurance of traditional physics-based methods due to the lack of physical information considerations in neural network training and deploying. The appropriate supervis…
We present, for the first time, a novel deep neural network architecture called DualCoreNet with a dual-path connection between the input image and output class label for mammogram image processing. This architecture is built upon U-Net, which non-linearly maps the input data into a deep latent spac…
This paper discusses Expectation-Propagation (EP) methods for approximate Bayesian inference in the context of linear regression with Poisson noise. We review two main factor graphs used for generalized linear models and discuss how different EP algorithms can be derived. The estimation performance…
Current popular methods for Magnetic Resonance Fingerprint (MRF) recovery are bottlenecked by the heavy storage and computation requirements of a dictionary-matching (DM) step due to the growing size and complexity of the fingerprint dictionaries in multi-parametric quantitative MRI applications. In…
In this paper, we consider the estimation of hyperparameters for regularization terms commonly used for obtaining structured sparse parameters in signal estimation problems, such as signal denoising. By considering the convex regularization terms as negative log-densities, we propose approximate max…
In this work we investigate the practicability of stochastic gradient descent and recently introduced variants with variance-reduction techniques in imaging inverse problems, such as space-varying image deblurring. Such algorithms have been shown in machine learning literature to have optimal comple…
We propose a structure-adaptive variant of the state-of-the-art stochastic variance-reduced gradient algorithm Katyusha for regularized empirical risk minimization. The proposed method is able to exploit the intrinsic low-dimensional structure of the solution, such as sparsity or low rank which is…
We propose a randomized first order optimization algorithm Gradient Projection Iterative Sketch (GPIS) and an accelerated variant for efficiently solving large scale constrained Least Squares (LS). We provide the first theoretical convergence analysis for both algorithms. An efficient implementation…
