We propose a novel multi-layer neural network architecture that gives a promising neural network empowered optimization approach to the image restoration problem. The proposed architecture is motivated by the recent study of monotone…

Existing physical model-based imaging methods for ultrasound elasticity reconstruction utilize fixed variational regularizers that may not be appropriate for the application of interest or may not capture complex spatial prior information…

Recent frameworks, such as the so-called plug-and-play, allow us to leverage the developments in image denoising to tackle other, and more involved, problems in image processing. As the name suggests, state-of-the-art denoisers are plugged…

In this paper, we introduce a proximal-proximal majorization-minimization (PPMM) algorithm for nonconvex tuning-free robust regression problems. The basic idea is to apply the proximal majorization-minimization algorithm to solve the…

Plug-and-Play methods for image restoration are iterative algorithms that solve a variational problem to recover a clean image from a degraded observation. These algorithms are known to be flexible to changes of degradation and to perform…

In this paper, we present a novel variational plug-and-play algorithm for Poisson inverse problems. Our approach minimizes an explicit functional which is the sum of a Kullback-Leibler data fidelity term and a regularization term based on a…

Multi-dimensional images, such as color images and multi-spectral images, are highly correlated and contain abundant spatial and spectral information. However, real-world multi-dimensional images are usually corrupted by missing entries. By…

While score-based generative models have emerged as powerful priors for solving inverse problems, directly integrating them into optimization algorithms such as ADMM remains nontrivial. Two central challenges arise: i) the mismatch between…

Diffusion models have found extensive use in solving inverse problems, by sampling from an approximate posterior distribution of data given the measurements. Recently, consistency models (CMs) have been proposed to directly predict the…

Plug-and-play (PnP) methods for solving inverse problems have recently achieved strong performance by leveraging denoising priors based on powerful generative diffusion and flow models. However, existing diffusion- and flow-based PnP…

We introduce a novel energy formulation for Plug- and-Play (PnP) image recovery. Traditional PnP methods that use a convolutional neural network (CNN) do not have an energy based formulation. The primary focus of this work is to introduce…

The use of Plug-and-Play (PnP) methods has become a central approach for solving inverse problems, with denoisers serving as regularising priors that guide optimisation towards a clean solution. In this work, we introduce KAN-PnP, an…

Alternating direction method of multiplier (ADMM) is a widely used algorithm for solving constrained optimization problems in image restoration. Among many useful features, one critical feature of the ADMM algorithm is its modular structure…

In this work we study the behavior of the forward-backward (FB) algorithm when the proximity operator is replaced by a sub-iterative procedure to approximate a Gaussian denoiser, in a Plug-and-Play (PnP) fashion. In particular, we consider…

We explore the connection between Plug-and-Play (PnP) methods and Denoising Diffusion Implicit Models (DDIM) for solving ill-posed inverse problems, with a focus on single-pixel imaging. We begin by identifying key distinctions between PnP…

Fast data acquisition in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is vastly in demand and scan time directly depends on the number of acquired k-space samples. Conventional MRI reconstruction methods for fast MRI acquisition mostly relied on…

Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) is a noninvasive imaging modality that provides a comprehensive evaluation of the cardiovascular system. The clinical utility of CMR is hampered by long acquisition times, however. In this work, we…

Recent work has shown the effectiveness of the plug-and-play priors (PnP) framework for regularized image reconstruction. However, the performance of PnP depends on the quality of the denoisers used as priors. In this letter, we design a…
