The past few years have seen a surge of activity around integration of deep learning networks and optimization algorithms for solving inverse problems. Recent work on plug-and-play priors (PnP), regularization by denoising (RED), and deep…

Existing denoising methods typically restore clear results by aggregating pixels from the noisy input. Instead of relying on hand-crafted aggregation schemes, we propose to explicitly learn this process with deep neural networks. We present…

Inverse problems generally require a regularizer or prior for a good solution. A recent trend is to train a convolutional net to denoise images, and use this net as a prior when solving the inverse problem. Several proposals depend on a…
