We present a reconstruction method that stably recovers the real valued, symmetric tensors compactly supported in the Euclidean plane, from knowledge of their attenuated momenta ray transform. The problem is recast as an inverse boundary value problem for a system of transport equations, which we solve by an extension of Bukhgeim’s A-analytic theory. The method of proof is constructive. To illustrate the reconstruction method, we present results obtained in the numerical implementation for the non-attenuated case of one-tensors.

This paper is devoted to some inverse problems of recovering the nonlinearity for the Jordan–Moore–Gibson–Thompson equation, which is a third order nonlinear acoustic equation. This equation arises, for example, from the wave propagation in viscous thermally relaxing fluids. The well-posedness of the nonlinear equation is obtained with the small initial and boundary data. By the second order linearization to the nonlinear equation, and construction of complex geometric optics solutions for the linearized equation, the uniqueness of recovering the nonlinearity is derived.

In this paper, we consider the travel time tomography problem for conformal metrics on a bounded domain, which seeks to determine the conformal factor of the metric from the lengths of geodesics joining boundary points. We establish forward and inverse stability estimates for simple conformal metrics under some a priori conditions. We then apply the stability estimates to show the consistency of a Bayesian statistical inversion technique for travel time tomography with discrete, noisy measurements.

We propose a novel iterative numerical method to solve the three-dimensional inverse obstacle scattering problem of recovering the shape of an obstacle from far-field measurements. To address the inherent ill-posed nature of the inverse problem, we advocate the use of a trained latent representation of surfaces as the generative prior. This prior enjoys excellent expressivity within the given class of shapes, and meanwhile, the latent dimensionality is low, which greatly facilitates the computation. Thus, the admissible manifold of surfaces is realistic and the resulting optimization problem is less ill-posed. We employ the shape derivative to evolve the latent surface representation, by minimizing the loss, and we provide a local convergence analysis of a gradient descent type algorithm to a stationary point of the loss. We present several numerical examples, including also backscattered and phaseless data, to showcase the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

The focus of this paper is the study of the inverse point-source scattering problem, specifically in relation to a certain class of electric potentials. Our research provides a novel uniqueness result for the inverse problem with local data, obtained from the near field pattern. Our work improves the work of Caro and Garcia, who investigated both the direct problem and the inverse problem with global near field data for critically singular and -shell potentials. The primary contribution of our research is the introduction of a Runge approximation result for the near field data on the scattering problem which, in combination with an interior regularity argument, enables us to establish a uniqueness result for the inverse problem with local data. Additionaly, we manage to consider a slightly wider class of potentials.

In multi-photon microscopy (MPM), a recent in-vivo fluorescence microscopy system, the task of image restoration can be decomposed into two interlinked inverse problems: firstly, the characterization of the point spread function (PSF) and subsequently, the deconvolution (i.e. deblurring) to remove the PSF effect, and reduce noise. The acquired MPM image quality is critically affected by PSF blurring and intense noise. The PSF in MPM is highly spread in 3D and is not well characterized, presenting high variability with respect to the observed objects. This makes the restoration of MPM images challenging. Common PSF estimation methods in fluorescence microscopy, including MPM, involve capturing images of sub-resolution beads, followed by quantifying the resulting ellipsoidal 3D spot. In this work, we revisit this approach, coping with its inherent limitations in terms of accuracy and practicality. We estimate the PSF from the observation of relatively large beads (approximately 1 in diameter). This goes through the formulation and resolution of an original non-convex minimization problem, for which we propose a proximal alternating method along with convergence guarantees. Following the PSF estimation step, we then introduce an innovative strategy to deal with the high level multiplicative noise degrading the acquisitions. We rely on a heteroscedastic noise model for which we estimate the parameters. We then solve a constrained optimization problem to restore the image, accounting for the estimated PSF and noise, while allowing a minimal hyper-parameter tuning. Theoretical guarantees are given for the restoration algorithm. These algorithmic contributions lead to an end-to-end pipeline for 3D image restoration in MPM, that we share as a publicly available Python software. We demonstrate its effectiveness through several experiments on both simulated and real data.

In this paper we study an inverse boundary value problem for the biharmonic operator with first order perturbation. Our geometric setting is that of a bounded simply connected domain in the Euclidean space of dimension three or higher. Assuming that the inaccessible portion of the boundary is flat, and we have knowledge of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map on the complement, we prove logarithmic type stability estimates for both the first and the zeroth order perturbation of the biharmonic operator.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a widely used medical imaging technique, but its long acquisition time can be a limiting factor in clinical settings. To address this issue, researchers have been exploring ways to reduce the acquisition time while maintaining the reconstruction quality. Previous works have focused on finding either sparse samplers with a fixed reconstructor or finding reconstructors with a fixed sampler. However, these approaches do not fully utilize the potential of joint learning of samplers and reconstructors. In this paper, we propose an alternating training framework for jointly learning a good pair of samplers and reconstructors via deep reinforcement learning. In particular, we consider the process of MRI sampling as a sampling trajectory controlled by a sampler, and introduce a novel sparse-reward partially observed Markov decision process (POMDP) to formulate the MRI sampling trajectory. Compared to the dense-reward POMDP used in existing works, the proposed sparse-reward POMDP is more computationally efficient and has a provable advantage. Moreover, the proposed framework, called learning to sample and reconstruct (L2SR), overcomes the training mismatch problem that arises in previous methods that use dense-reward POMDP. By alternately updating samplers and reconstructors, L2SR learns a pair of samplers and reconstructors that achieve state-of-the-art reconstruction performances on the fastMRI dataset. Codes are available at https://github.com/yangpuPKU/L2SR-Learning-to-Sample-and-Reconstruct.

Combining the strengths of model-based iterative algorithms and data-driven deep learning solutions, deep unrolling networks (DuNets) have become a popular tool to solve inverse imaging problems. Although DuNets have been successfully applied to many linear inverse problems, their performance tends to be impaired by nonlinear problems. Inspired by momentum acceleration techniques that are often used in optimization algorithms, we propose a recurrent momentum acceleration (RMA) framework that uses a long short-term memory recurrent neural network (LSTM-RNN) to simulate the momentum acceleration process. The RMA module leverages the ability of the LSTM-RNN to learn and retain knowledge from the previous gradients. We apply RMA to two popular DuNets—the learned proximal gradient descent (LPGD) and the learned primal-dual (LPD) methods, resulting in LPGD-RMA and LPD-RMA, respectively. We provide experimental results on two nonlinear inverse problems: a nonlinear deconvolution problem, and an electrical impedance tomography problem with limited boundary measurements. In the first experiment we have observed that the improvement due to RMA largely increases with respect to the nonlinearity of the problem. The results of the second example further demonstrate that the RMA schemes can significantly improve the performance of DuNets in strongly ill-posed problems.

Inverse problems are key issues in several scientific areas, including signal processing and medical imaging. Since inverse problems typically suffer from instability with respect to data perturbations, a variety of regularization techniques have been proposed. In particular, the use of filtered diagonal frame decompositions (DFDs) has proven to be effective and computationally efficient. However, existing convergence analysis applies only to linear filters and a few non-linear filters such as soft thresholding. In this paper, we analyze filtered DFDs with general non-linear filters. In particular, our results generalize singular value decomposition-based spectral filtering from linear to non-linear filters as a special case. As a first approach, we establish a connection between non-linear diagonal frame filtering and variational regularization, allowing us to use results from variational regularization to derive the convergence of non-linear spectral filtering. In the second approach, as our main theoretical results, we relax the assumptions involved in the variational case while still deriving convergence. Furthermore, we discuss connections between non-linear filtering and plug-and-play regularization and explore potential benefits of this relationship.
