Phase retrieval aims to recover a signal $x \in \mathbb{C}^{n}$ from its amplitude measurements $|<x, a_i > |^2$, $i=1,2,...,m$, where $a_i$'s are over-complete basis vectors, with $m$ at least $3n -2$ to ensure a unique solution up to a…
The difference-of-convex algorithm (DCA) is a conceptually simple method for the minimization of (possibly) nonconvex functions that are expressed as the difference of two convex functions. At each iteration, DCA constructs a global…
By exploiting the property that the RBM log-likelihood function is the difference of convex functions, we formulate a stochastic variant of the difference of convex functions (DC) programming to minimize the negative log-likelihood.…
This paper studies early-stopped mirror descent applied to noisy sparse phase retrieval, which is the problem of recovering a $k$-sparse signal $\mathbf{x}^\star\in\mathbb{R}^n$ from a set of quadratic Gaussian measurements corrupted by…
In a variety of fields, in particular those involving imaging and optics, we often measure signals whose phase is missing or has been irremediably distorted. Phase retrieval attempts to recover the phase information of a signal from the…
In this paper we consider minimization of a difference-of-convex (DC) function with and without linear constraints. We first study a smooth approximation of a generic DC function, termed difference-of-Moreau-envelopes (DME) smoothing, where…
In this paper, we consider a class of structured nonsmooth fractional minimization, where the first part of the objective is the ratio of a nonnegative nonsmooth nonconvex function to a nonnegative nonsmooth convex function, while the…
The problem of reconstructing a sparse signal vector from magnitude-only measurements (a.k.a., compressive phase retrieval), emerges naturally in diverse applications, but it is NP-hard in general. Building on recent advances in nonconvex…
We propose an efficient solver for the privacy funnel (PF) method, leveraging its difference-of-convex (DC) structure. The proposed DC separation results in a closed-form update equation, which allows straightforward application to both…
We introduce a novel algorithm for solving learning problems where both the loss function and the regularizer are non-convex but belong to the class of difference of convex (DC) functions. Our contribution is a new general purpose proximal…
Phase-retrieval from coded diffraction patterns (CDP) is important to X-ray crystallography, diffraction tomography and astronomical imaging, yet remains a hard, non-convex inverse problem. We show that CDP recovery can be reformulated…
We consider a class of difference-of-convex (DC) optimization problems where the objective function is the sum of a smooth function and a possible nonsmooth DC function. The application of proximal DC algorithms to address this problem…
An algorithmic framework, based on the difference of convex functions algorithm (DCA), is proposed for minimizing a class of concave sparse metrics for compressed sensing problems. The resulting algorithm iterates a sequence of $\ell_1$…
Sparse estimation for Gaussian graphical models is a crucial technique for making the relationships among numerous observed variables more interpretable and quantifiable. Various methods have been proposed, including graphical lasso, which…
In the undersampled phase retrieval problem, the goal is to recover an $N$-dimensional complex signal $\mathbf{x}$ from only $M<N$ noisy intensity measurements without phase information. This problem has drawn a lot of attention to reduce…
In this work, we propose some new Douglas-Rashford splitting algorithms for solving a class of generalized DC (difference of convex functions) in real Hilbert spaces. The proposed methods leverage the proximal properties of the nonsmooth…
We develop a fast phase retrieval method which can utilize a large class of local phaseless correlation-based measurements in order to recover a given signal ${\bf x} \in \mathbb{C}^d$ (up to an unknown global phase) in near-linear…
In this paper, we propose a new algorithm for recovery of low-rank matrices from compressed linear measurements. The underlying idea of this algorithm is to closely approximate the rank function with a smooth function of singular values,…
If the phase retrieval problem can be solved by a method similar to that of solving a system of linear equations under the context of FFT, the time complexity of computer based phase retrieval algorithm would be reduced. Here I present such…
The objective of this paper is to develop methods for solving image recovery problems subject to constraints on the solution. More precisely, we will be interested in problems which can be formulated as the minimization over a closed convex…
