• Abstract: The joint problem of reconstruction / feature extraction is a challenging task in image processing. It consists in performing, in a joint manner, the restoration of an image and the extraction of its features. In this work, we firstly propose a novel nonsmooth and non-convex variational formulation of the problem. For this purpose, we introduce a versatile generalised Gaussian prior whose parameters, including its exponent, are space-variant. Secondly, we design an alternating proximal-based optimisation algorithm that efficiently exploits the structure of the proposed non-convex objective function. We also analyse the convergence of this algorithm. As shown in numerical experiments conducted on joint deblurring/segmentation tasks, the proposed method provides high-quality results.

To improve the gradient, we replace the classic sampling method based on Rademacher and show that the mini-batch method copes with non-Eucli geometry.

We prove the existence of a sub-gradient-based algorithm that leads to a monotonically decreasing error in the parameter space with iterations. We show that the proposed convex regularizer is at least competitive with and sometimes superior to state-of-the-art data-driven techniques for inverse problems.

  We introduce a general framework for designing and training neural network layers whose forward passes can be interpreted as solving non-smooth convex optimization problems. We focus on convex games, solved by local agents represented by the nodes of a graph and interacting through regularization functions. This approach is appealing for solving imaging problems, as it allows the use of classical image priors within deep models that are trainable end to end.
