However, the CTV-RPCA model ignores the influence of noise, which makes the model unable to effectively extract low-rank and local-smooth principal components under noisy circumstances. To alleviate this issue, this article extends the CTV-RPCA model by considering the influence of noise and proposes two robust models with parameter adaptive adjustment, i.e., Stable Principal Component Pursuit based on CTV (CTV-SPCP) and Square Root Principal Component Pursuit based on CTV (CTV-[math]). Furthermore, we present a statistical recoverable error bound for the proposed models, which allows us to know the relationship between the solution of the proposed models and the ground-truth. It is worth mentioning that, in the absence of noise, our theory degenerates back to the exact recoverable theory of the CTV-RPCA model. Finally, we develop the effective algorithms with the strict convergence guarantees. Extensive experiments adequately validate the theoretical assertions and also demonstrate the superiority of the proposed models over many state-of-the-art methods on various typical applications, including video foreground extraction, multispectral image denoising, and hyperspectral image denoising.

We first propose an extrapolated DYS method to effectively solve a class of structural nonconvex optimization problems that involve minimizing the sum of three possibly nonconvex functions. Our approach provides an algorithmic framework that encompasses both extrapolated forward–backward splitting and extrapolated Douglas–Rachford splitting methods. To establish the convergence of the proposed method, we rigorously analyze its behavior based on the Kurdyka–Łojasiewicz property, subject to some tight parameter conditions. Moreover, we introduce two extrapolated PnP-DYS methods with convergence guarantee, where the traditional regularization step is replaced by a gradient step–based denoiser. This denoiser is designed using a differentiable neural network and can be reformulated as the proximal operator of a specific nonconvex functional. We conduct extensive experiments on image deblurring and image superresolution problems, where our numerical results showcase the advantage of the extrapolation strategy and the superior performance of the learning-based model that incorporates the PnP denoiser in terms of achieving high-quality recovery images.","PeriodicalId":49528,"journal":{"name":"SIAM Journal on Imaging Sciences","volume":"58 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-06-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141531359","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed strategy takes the form of a stochastic relaxed proximal-point iteration that admits two complementary interpretations. For models that are smooth or regularized by Moreau–Yosida smoothing, the algorithm is equivalent to an implicit midpoint discretization of an overdamped Langevin diffusion targeting the posterior distribution of interest. This discretization is asymptotically unbiased for Gaussian targets and shown to converge in an accelerated manner for any target that is [math]-strongly log-concave (i.e., requiring in the order of [math] iterations to converge, similar to accelerated optimization schemes), comparing favorably to Pereyra, Vargas Mieles, and Zygalakis [SIAM J. Imaging Sci., 13 (2020), pp. 905–935], which is only provably accelerated for Gaussian targets and has bias. For models that are not smooth, the algorithm is equivalent to a Leimkuhler–Matthews discretization of a Langevin diffusion targeting a Moreau–Yosida approximation of the posterior distribution of interest and hence achieves a significantly lower bias than conventional unadjusted Langevin strategies based on the Euler–Maruyama discretization. For targets that are [math]-strongly log-concave, the provided nonasymptotic convergence analysis also identifies the optimal time step, which maximizes the convergence speed. The proposed methodology is demonstrated through a range of experiments related to image deconvolution with Gaussian and Poisson noise with assumption-driven and data-driven convex priors.

These problems arise when considering block coordinate descent (BCD) approaches for solving inverse problems with total generalized variation (TGV) regularizers or their nonconvex generalizations. We introduce a linear-time reduction that transforms the shifted problems into their nonshifted counterparts. However, combining existing continuous dynamic programming (DP) algorithms with the reduction does not lead to BCD iterations that compute TGV-like solutions. This problem can be overcome by considering a box-constrained modification of the subproblems or smoothing the cost terms of the TGV regularized problem. The former leads to shifted and box-constrained subproblems, for which we propose a linear-time reduction to their unconstrained counterpart. The latter naturally leads to problems with smooth unary and pairwise cost terms. With this in mind, we propose two novel continuous DP algorithms that can solve (convex and nonconvex) problems with piecewise quadratic unary and pairwise cost terms. We prove that the algorithm for the convex case has quadratic worst-case time and memory complexity, while the algorithm for the nonconvex case has exponential time and memory complexity, but works well in practice for smooth truncated total variation pairwise costs. Finally, we demonstrate the applicability of the proposed algorithms for solving inverse problems with first-order and higher-order regularizers.","PeriodicalId":49528,"journal":{"name":"SIAM Journal on Imaging Sciences","volume":"58 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141171789","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, in dealing with noisy data, kernel interpolation frequently behaves not so well due to the large condition number of the kernel matrix and instability of the interpolation process. In this paper, we introduce a weighted spectral filter approach to reduce the condition number of the kernel matrix and then stabilize kernel interpolation. The main building blocks of the proposed method are the well-developed spherical positive quadrature rules and high-pass spectral filters. Using a recently developed integral operator approach for spherical data analysis, we theoretically demonstrate that the proposed weighted spectral filter approach succeeds in breaking through the bottleneck of kernel interpolation, especially in fitting noisy data. We provide optimal approximation rates of the new method to show that our approach does not compromise the predicting accuracy. Furthermore, we conduct both toy simulations and two real-world data experiments with synthetically added noise in geophysical image reconstruction and climate image processing to verify our theoretical assertions and show the feasibility of the weighted spectral filter approach.","PeriodicalId":49528,"journal":{"name":"SIAM Journal on Imaging Sciences","volume":"24 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141153960","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Anomaly detection in the hyperspectral images, which aims to separate interesting sparse anomalies from backgrounds, is a significant topic in remote sensing. In this paper, we propose a generalized nonconvex background representation learning with dictionary constraint (GNBRL) model for hyperspectral anomaly detection. Unlike existing methods that use a specific nonconvex function for a low rank term, GNBRL uses a class of nonconvex functions for both low rank and sparse terms simultaneously, which can better capture the low rank structure of the background and the sparsity of the anomaly. In addition, GNBRL simultaneously learns the dictionary and anomaly tensor in a unified framework by imposing a three-dimensional correlated total variation constraint on the dictionary tensor to enhance the quality of representation. An extrapolated linearized alternating direction method of multipliers (ELADMM) algorithm is then developed to solve the proposed GNBRL model. Finally, a novel coarse to fine two-stage framework is proposed to enhance the GNBRL model by exploiting the nonlocal similarity of the hyperspectral data. Theoretically, we establish an error bound for the GNBRL model and show that this error bound can be superior to those of similar models based on Tucker rank. We prove that the sequence generated by the proposed ELADMM algorithm converges to a Karush–Kuhn–Tucker point of the GNBRL model. This is a challenging task due to the nonconvexity of the objective function. Experiments on hyperspectral image datasets demonstrate that our proposed method outperforms several state-of-the-art methods in terms of detection accuracy.","PeriodicalId":49528,"journal":{"name":"SIAM Journal on Imaging Sciences","volume":"31 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140567702","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Chan, Lixin Shen, Xiaosheng Zhuang, Risheng Wu, Yijun Huang, Junwei Liu","doi":"10.1137/23m1571150","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1137/23m1571150","url":null,"abstract":"SIAM Journal on Imaging Sciences, Volume 17, Issue 2, Page 888-916, June 2024. <br/> Abstract. Each coil image in a parallel magnetic resonance imaging (pMRI) system is an imaging slice modulated by the corresponding coil sensitivity. These coil images, structurally similar to each other, are stacked together as 3-dimensional (3D) image data, and their sparsity property can be explored via 3D directional Haar tight framelets. The features of the 3D image data from the 3D framelet systems are utilized to regularize sensitivity encoding (SENSE) pMRI reconstruction. Accordingly, a so-called SENSE3d algorithm is proposed to reconstruct images of high quality from the sampled [math]-space data with a high acceleration rate by decoupling effects of the desired image (slice) and sensitivity maps. Since both the imaging slice and sensitivity maps are unknown, this algorithm repeatedly performs a slice step followed by a sensitivity step by using updated estimations of the desired image and the sensitivity maps. In the slice step, for the given sensitivity maps, the estimation of the desired image is viewed as the solution to a convex optimization problem regularized by the sparsity of its 3D framelet coefficients of coil images. This optimization problem, involving data from the complex field, is solved by a primal-dual three-operator splitting (PD3O) method. In the sensitivity step, the estimation of sensitivity maps is modeled as the solution to a Tikhonov-type optimization problem that favors the smoothness of the sensitivity maps. This corresponding problem is nonconvex and could be solved by a forward-backward splitting method. Experiments on real phantoms and in vivo data show that the proposed SENSE3d algorithm can explore the sparsity property of the imaging slices and efficiently produce reconstructed images of high quality with reduced aliasing artifacts caused by high acceleration rate, additive noise, and the inaccurate estimation of each coil sensitivity. To provide a comprehensive picture of the overall performance of our SENSE3d model, we provide the quantitative index (HaarPSI) and comparisons to some deep learning methods such as VarNet and fastMRI-UNet.","PeriodicalId":49528,"journal":{"name":"SIAM Journal on Imaging Sciences","volume":"34 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140567663","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In recent years, data-driven techniques for solving inverse problems have also been remarkably successful, due to their superior representation ability. In this work, we incorporate data-based models into a class of Langevin-based sampling algorithms for Bayesian inference in imaging inverse problems. In particular, we introduce NF-ULA (normalizing flow-based unadjusted Langevin algorithm), which involves learning a normalizing flow (NF) as the image prior. We use NF to learn the prior because a tractable closed-form expression for the log prior enables the differentiation of it using autograd libraries. Our algorithm only requires a normalizing flow-based generative network, which can be pretrained independently of the considered inverse problem and the forward operator. We perform theoretical analysis by investigating the well-posedness and nonasymptotic convergence of the resulting NF-ULA algorithm. The efficacy of the proposed NF-ULA algorithm is demonstrated in various image restoration problems such as image deblurring, image inpainting, and limited-angle X-ray computed tomography reconstruction.
