Line spectral estimation is a classical signal processing problem that aims to estimate the line spectra from their signal which is contaminated by deterministic or random noise. Despite a large body of research on this subject, the…
We consider a problem that recovers a 2-D object and the underlying view angle distribution from its noisy projection tilt series taken at unknown view angles. Traditional approaches rely on the estimation of the view angles of the…

Inverse problems, such as accelerated MRI reconstruction, are ill-posed and an infinite amount of possible and plausible solutions exist. This may not only lead to uncertainty in the reconstructed image but also in downstream tasks such as…
Most methods for Bundle Adjustment (BA) in computer vision are either centralized or operate incrementally. This leads to poor scaling and affects the quality of solution as the number of images grows in large scale structure from motion…
A plethora of dimensionality reduction techniques have emerged over the past decades, leaving researchers and analysts with a wide variety of choices for reducing their data, all the more so given some techniques come with additional…
