This paper discusses the incorporation of local sparsity information, e.g. in each pixel of an image, via minimization of the $\ell^{1,\infty}$-norm. We discuss the basic properties of this norm when used as a regularization functional and…
The standard approach for dealing with the ill-posedness of the training problem in machine learning and/or the reconstruction of a signal from a limited number of measurements is regularization. The method is applicable whenever the…

We show that perturbing ill-posed differential equations with (potentially very) smooth random processes can restore well-posedness -- even if the perturbation is (potentially much) more regular than the drift component of the solution. The…
