Abstract
Phase retrieval refers to the problem of recovering a high-dimensional vector ${\mathbf{x}} \in {\mathbb{C}^N}$ from the magnitude of its linear transform z = Ax, observed through a noisy channel. To improve the ill-posed nature of the inverse problem, it is a common practice to observe the magnitude of linear measurements z<sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">(1)</sup> = A<sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">(1)</sup>x,…, z<sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">(L)</sup> = A<sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">(L)</sup>x using multiple sensing matrices A<sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">(1)</sup>,…, A<sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">(L)</sup>, with ptychographic imaging being a remarkable example of such strategies. Inspired by existing algorithms for ptychographic reconstruction, we introduce stochasticity to Vector Approximate Message Passing (VAMP), a computationally efficient algorithm applicable to a wide range of Bayesian inverse problems. By testing our approach in the setup of phase retrieval, we show the superior convergence speed of the proposed algorithm.
