Undersampled Phase Retrieval with Outliers
We propose a general framework for reconstructing transform-sparse images
from undersampled (squared)-magnitude data corrupted with outliers. This
framework is implemented using a multi-layered approach, combining multiple
initializations (to address the nonconvexity of the phase retrieval problem),
repeated minimization of a convex majorizer (surrogate for a nonconvex
objective function), and iterative optimization using the alternating
directions method of multipliers. Exploiting the generality of this framework,
we investigate using a Laplace measurement noise model better adapted to
outliers present in the data than the conventional Gaussian noise model. Using
simulations, we explore the sensitivity of the method to both the
regularization and penalty parameters. We include 1D Monte Carlo and 2D image
reconstruction comparisons with alternative phase retrieval algorithms. The
results suggest the proposed method, with the Laplace noise model, both
increases the likelihood of correct support recovery and reduces the mean
squared error from measurements containing outliers. We also describe exciting
extensions made possible by the generality of the proposed framework, including
regularization using analysis-form sparsity priors that are incompatible with
many existing approaches.Comment: 11 pages, 9 figure
GESPAR: Efficient Phase Retrieval of Sparse Signals
We consider the problem of phase retrieval, namely, recovery of a signal from
the magnitude of its Fourier transform, or of any other linear transform. Due
to the loss of the Fourier phase information, this problem is ill-posed.
Therefore, prior information on the signal is needed in order to enable its
recovery. In this work we consider the case in which the signal is known to be
sparse, i.e., it consists of a small number of nonzero elements in an
appropriate basis. We propose a fast local search method for recovering a
sparse signal from measurements of its Fourier transform (or other linear
transform) magnitude which we refer to as GESPAR: GrEedy Sparse PhAse
Retrieval. Our algorithm does not require matrix lifting, unlike previous
approaches, and therefore is potentially suitable for large scale problems such
as images. Simulation results indicate that GESPAR is fast and more accurate
than existing techniques in a variety of settings.Comment: Generalized to non-Fourier measurements, added 2D simulations, and a

Phase Retrieval with Application to Optical Imaging
This review article provides a contemporary overview of phase retrieval in
optical imaging, linking the relevant optical physics to the information
processing methods and algorithms. Its purpose is to describe the current state
of the art in this area, identify challenges, and suggest vision and areas
where signal processing methods can have a large impact on optical imaging and
on the world of imaging at large, with applications in a variety of fields
ranging from biology and chemistry to physics and engineering
Compressive Phase Retrieval From Squared Output Measurements Via Semidefinite Programming
Given a linear system in a real or complex domain, linear regression aims to
recover the model parameters from a set of observations. Recent studies in
compressive sensing have successfully shown that under certain conditions, a
linear program, namely, l1-minimization, guarantees recovery of sparse
parameter signals even when the system is underdetermined. In this paper, we
consider a more challenging problem: when the phase of the output measurements
from a linear system is omitted. Using a lifting technique, we show that even
though the phase information is missing, the sparse signal can be recovered
exactly by solving a simple semidefinite program when the sampling rate is
sufficiently high, albeit the exact solutions to both sparse signal recovery
and phase retrieval are combinatorial. The results extend the type of
applications that compressive sensing can be applied to those where only output
magnitudes can be observed. We demonstrate the accuracy of the algorithms
through theoretical analysis, extensive simulations and a practical experiment.Comment: Parts of the derivations have submitted to the 16th IFAC Symposium on
