Model-Based Deep Learning For Computational Imaging, Xiaojian Xu

McKelvey School of Engineering Theses & Dissertations

This dissertation addresses model-based deep learning for computational imaging. The motivation of our work is driven by the increasing interests in the combination of imaging model, which provides data-consistency guarantees to the observed measurements, and deep learning, which provides advanced prior modeling driven by data. Following this idea, we develop multiple algorithms by integrating the classical model-based optimization and modern deep learning to enable efficient and reliable imaging. We demonstrate the performance of our algorithms by validating their performance on various imaging applications and providing rigorous theoretical analysis.

The dissertation evaluates and extends three general frameworks, plug-and-play priors (PnP), regularized …
