Paper studies early-stopped mirror descent for noisy sparse phase retrieval.

This paper considers the noisy sparse phase retrieval problem: recovering a sparse signal $x \in \mathbb{R}^p$ from noisy quadratic measurements $y_j = (a_j' x )^2 + ε_j$, $j=1, \ldots, m$, with independent sub-exponential noise $ε_j$. The goals are to understand the effect of the sparsity of $x$ on the estimation prec…

We consider the problem of compressed sensing and of (real-valued) phase retrieval with random measurement matrix. We derive sharp asymptotics for the information-theoretically optimal performance and for the best known polynomial algorithm for an ensemble of generative priors consisting of fully connected deep neural …

We consider the problem of sparse phase retrieval from Fourier transform magnitudes to recover the $k$-sparse signal vector and its support $\mathcal{T}$. We exploit extended support estimate $\mathcal{E}$ with size larger than $k$ satisfying $\mathcal{E} \supseteq \mathcal{T}$ and obtained by a trained deep neural net…

Transformer models improve query-document retrieval efficiency and accuracy.

Existing nonconvex statistical optimization theory and methods crucially rely on the correct specification of the underlying "true" statistical models. To address this issue, we take a first step towards taming model misspecification by studying the high-dimensional sparse phase retrieval problem with misspecified link…

We consider the problem of recovering a signal $\mathbf{x}^* \in \mathbf{R}^n$, from magnitude-only measurements $y_i = |\left\langle\mathbf{a}_i,\mathbf{x}^*\right\rangle|$ for $i=[m]$. Also called the phase retrieval, this is a fundamental challenge in bio-,astronomical imaging and speech processing. The problem abov…

We study the fundamental tradeoffs between statistical accuracy and computational tractability in the analysis of high dimensional heterogeneous data.

Phase retrieval refers to the problem of recovering real- or complex-valued vectors from magnitude measurements. The best-known algorithms for this problem are iterative in nature and rely on so-called spectral initializers that provide accurate initialization vectors. We propose a novel class of estimators suitable fo…

We study the projected gradient descent method on low-rank matrix problems with a strongly convex objective. We use the Burer-Monteiro factorization approach to implicitly enforce low-rankness; such factorization introduces non-convexity in the objective. We focus on constraint sets that include both positive semi-defi…

Phase retrieval problems involve solving linear equations, but with missing sign (or phase, for complex numbers) information.

Improved regret bounds for bandit phase retrieval.

Phase retrieval algorithms have become an important component in many modern computational imaging systems. For instance, in the context of ptychography and speckle correlation imaging, they enable imaging past the diffraction limit and through scattering media, respectively. Unfortunately, traditional phase retrieval …

Sparse Hopfield model improves memory retrieval with fewer connections.

Restricted Boltzmann Machines are described by the Gibbs measure of a bipartite spin glass, which in turn corresponds to the one of a generalised Hopfield network. This equivalence allows us to characterise the state of these systems in terms of retrieval capabilities, both at low and high load. We study the paramagnet…

In this paper we study the property of phase retrievability by redundant sysems of vectors under perturbations of the frame set. Specifically we show that if a set $\fc$ of $m$ vectors in the complex Hilbert space of dimension n allows for vector reconstruction from magnitudes of its coefficients, then there is a pertu…

In this paper, we consider the problem of low-rank phase retrieval whose objective is to estimate a complex low-rank matrix from magnitude-only measurements. We propose a hierarchical prior model for low-rank phase retrieval, in which a Gaussian-Wishart hierarchical prior is placed on the underlying low-rank matrix to …
