This work explores generalizations of the Polyak-Lojasiewicz inequality (PLI) and their implications for the convergence behavior of gradient flows in optimization problems. Motivated by the continuous-time linear quadratic regulator…

This paper proposes a new framework to regularize the highly ill-posed and non-linear phase retrieval problem through deep generative priors using simple gradient descent algorithm. We experimentally show effectiveness of proposed algorithm…

Stochastic Gradient Decent (SGD) is one of the core techniques behind the success of deep neural networks. The gradient provides information on the direction in which a function has the steepest rate of change. The main problem with basic…

Finite-rate-of-innovation (FRI) signals are ubiquitous in applications such as radar, ultrasound, and time of flight imaging. Due to their finite degrees of freedom, FRI signals can be sampled at sub-Nyquist rates using appropriate sampling…

This paper is concerned with $\ell_q\,(0<q<1)$-norm regularized minimization problems with a twice continuously differentiable loss function. For this class of nonconvex and nonsmooth composite problems, many algorithms have been proposed…

Gradient regularization, as described in \citet{barrett2021implicit}, is a highly effective technique for promoting flat minima during gradient descent. Empirical evidence suggests that this regularization technique can significantly…

Inverse problems for accelerated MRI typically incorporate domain-specific knowledge about the forward encoding operator in a regularized reconstruction framework. Recently physics-driven deep learning (DL) methods have been proposed to use…

We study the minimization of a convex function $f(X)$ over the set of $n\times n$ positive semi-definite matrices, but when the problem is recast as $\min_U g(U) := f(UU^\top)$, with $U \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times r}$ and $r \leq n$. We study…

Rectified Flow (RF) models achieve state-of-the-art generation quality, yet controlling them for precise tasks -- such as semantic editing or blind image recovery -- remains a challenge. Current approaches bifurcate into inversion-based…

Optimization problems with rank constraints arise in many applications, including matrix regression, structured PCA, matrix completion and matrix decomposition problems. An attractive heuristic for solving such problems is to factorize the…

We propose SING (StabIlized and Normalized Gradient), a plug-and-play technique that improves the stability and generalization of the Adam(W) optimizer. SING is straightforward to implement and has minimal computational overhead, requiring…

In recent literature, a general two step procedure has been formulated for solving the problem of phase retrieval. First, a spectral technique is used to obtain a constant-error initial estimate, following which, the estimate is refined to…

Poisson-Gaussian noise describes the noise of various imaging systems thus the need of efficient algorithms for Poisson-Gaussian image restoration. Deep learning methods offer state-of-the-art performance but often require sensor-specific…

This paper investigates a category of constrained fractional optimization problems that emerge in various practical applications. The objective function for this category is characterized by the ratio of a numerator and denominator, both…

Many problems encountered in science and engineering can be formulated as estimating a low-rank object (e.g., matrices and tensors) from incomplete, and possibly corrupted, linear measurements. Through the lens of matrix and tensor…

In this paper, we introduce convolutional proximal neural networks (cPNNs), which are by construction averaged operators. For filters of full length, we propose a stochastic gradient descent algorithm on a submanifold of the Stiefel…

Model-based reconstruction plays a key role in compressed sensing (CS) MRI, as it incorporates effective image regularizers to improve the quality of reconstruction. The Plug-and-Play and Regularization-by-Denoising frameworks leverage…

We consider the problem of matrix completion with graphs as side information depicting the interrelations between variables. The key challenge lies in leveraging the similarity structure of the graph to enhance matrix recovery. Existing…

Fuzzy relational inequalities with fuzzy constraints (FRI-FC) are the generalized form of fuzzy relational inequalities (FRI) in which fuzzy inequality replaces ordinary inequality in the constraints. Fuzzy constraints enable us to attain…

This work studies a composite minimization problem involving a differentiable function q and a nonsmooth function h, both of which may be nonconvex. This problem is ubiquitous in signal processing and machine learning yet remains…
