Guidance Without Labels: Flow Matching from Coupled Gaussian Mixtures

Stanislas Ducotterd, Bassam El Rawas, Michael Unser

Flow matching models are typically trained to transport a Gaussian source to the data distribution, with source and target samples paired independently. We replace the source with…

Breaking the Weak Recovery Limit in Random Phase Retrieval with Learned Regularizers

Stanislas Ducotterd, Zhiyuan Hu, Michael Unser +1

We seek to recover an unknown signal from nonlinear amplitude-only measurements, a challenging inverse problem. Strong theoretical guarantees have been established for idealized ra…

Multivariate Fields of Experts for Convergent Image Reconstruction

Stanislas Ducotterd, Michael Unser

We introduce the multivariate fields of experts, a new framework for the learning of image priors. Our model generalizes existing fields of experts methods by incorporating multiva…

Universal Architectures for the Learning of Polyhedral Norms and Convex Regularizers

Michael Unser, Stanislas Ducotterd

This paper addresses the task of learning convex regularizers to guide the reconstruction of images from limited data. By imposing that the reconstruction be amplitude-equivariant,…

Learning of Patch-Based Smooth-Plus-Sparse Models for Image Reconstruction

Stanislas Ducotterd, Sebastian Neumayer, Michael Unser

We aim at the solution of inverse problems in imaging, by combining a penalized sparse representation of image patches with an unconstrained smooth one. This allows for a straightf…

Parseval Convolution Operators and Neural Networks

Michael Unser, Stanislas Ducotterd

We first establish a kernel theorem that characterizes all linear shift-invariant (LSI) operators acting on discrete multicomponent signals. This result naturally leads to the iden…

Controlled Learning of Pointwise Nonlinearities in Neural-Network-Like Architectures

Michael Unser, Alexis Goujon, Stanislas Ducotterd

We present a general variational framework for the training of freeform nonlinearities in layered computational architectures subject to some slope constraints. The regularization…
