• Abstract summary: Real-world imaging challenges often lack ground truth data, rendering traditional supervised approaches ineffective. Our method trains a meta-model on a diverse set of imaging tasks that allows the model to be efficiently fine-tuned for specific tasks. In simple settings, this approach recovers the Bayes optimal estimator, illustrating the soundness of our approach.

• Abstract: Deep neural networks have become a foundational tool for addressing imaging inverse problems. They are typically trained for a specific task, with a supervised loss to learn a mapping from the observations to the image to recover. However, real-world imaging challenges often lack ground truth data, rendering traditional supervised approaches ineffective. Moreover, for each new imaging task, a new model needs to be trained from scratch, wasting time and resources. To overcome these limitations, we introduce a novel approach based on meta-learning. Our method trains a meta-model on a diverse set of imaging tasks that allows the model to be efficiently fine-tuned for specific tasks with few fine-tuning steps. We show that the proposed method extends to the unsupervised setting, where no ground truth data is available. In its bilevel formulation, the outer level uses a supervised loss, that evaluates how well the fine-tuned model performs, while the inner loss can be either supervised or unsupervised, relying only on the measurement operator. This allows the meta-model to leverage a few ground truth samples for each task while being able to generalize to new imaging tasks. We show that in simple settings, this approach recovers the Bayes optimal estimator, illustrating the soundness of our approach. We also demonstrate our method's effectiveness on various tasks, including image processing and magnetic resonance imaging.

  We propose a new adaptation framework called Data Adaptive Traceback. Specifically, we utilize a zero-shot-based method to extract the most downstream task-related subset of the pre-training data. We adopt a pseudo-label-based semi-supervised technique to reuse the pre-training images and a vision-language contrastive learning method to address the confirmation bias issue in semi-supervised learning.

  Test-time task adaptation in few-shot learning aims to adapt a pre-trained task-agnostic model for capturing taskspecific knowledge. With only a handful of samples available, the adverse effect of either the image noise (a.k.a. X-noise) or the label noise (a.k.a. Y-noise) from support samples can be severely amplified. We propose DEnoised Task Adaptation (DETA), a first, unified image- and label-denoising framework to existing task adaptation approaches.
