This paper investigates phase retrieval using the Reshaped Wirtinger Flow (RWF) algorithm, focusing on recovering target vector $\vx \in \R^n$ from magnitude measurements \(y_i = \left| \langle \va_i, \vx \rangle \right|, \; i = 1, \ldots,…
We study an approach to solving the phase retrieval problem as it arises in a phase-less imaging modality known as ptychography. In ptychography, small overlapping sections of an unknown sample (or signal, say $x_0\in \mathbb{C}^d$) are…
