Image deblurring is a notoriously challenging ill-posed inverse problem. In recent years, a wide variety of approaches have been proposed based upon regularization at the level of the image or on techniques from machine learning. We propose…
We propose regression models for curve-valued responses in two or more dimensions, where only the image but not the parametrization of the curves is of interest. Examples of such data are handwritten letters, movement paths or outlines of…

Sup-norm curve estimation is a fundamental statistical problem and, in principle, a premise for the construction of confidence bands for infinite-dimensional parameters. In a Bayesian framework, the issue of whether the…

Recently efforts have been made to use generalized sinc functions to perfectly reconstruct various kinds of non-bandlimited signals. As a consequence, perfect reconstruction sampling formulas have been established using such generalized…
In brain imaging, the image acquisition and processing processes themselves are likely to introduce noise to the images. It is therefore imperative to reduce the noise while preserving the geometric details of the anatomical structures for…
Geometric data analysis relies on graphs that are either given as input or inferred from data. These graphs are often treated as "correct" when solving downstream tasks such as graph signal denoising. But real-world graphs are known to…
We consider the problem of estimating a smooth functional of an unknown signal with discontinuity from Gaussian observations. The signal is a known function that depends on an unknown parameter. This problem is closely related to the famous…
The object of this work is to design an adequate regularization for the problem of recovering missing Fourier coefficients, particularly in some non standard situations were low frequency coefficients are lost. In the framework of non-local…
Given 2D point correspondences between an image pair, inferring the camera motion is a fundamental issue in the computer vision community. The existing works generally set out from the epipolar constraint and estimate the essential matrix,…
Accurate blur estimation is essential for high-performance imaging across various applications. Blur is typically represented by the point spread function (PSF). In this paper, we propose a physics-informed PSF learning framework for…
