Alternative Design of DeepPDNet in the Context of Image Restoration
Mingyuan Jiu, Nelly Pustelnik · IEEE Signal Processing Letters · 2022
This work designs an image restoration deep network relying on unfolded Chambolle-Pock primal-dual iterations. Each layer of our network is built from Chambolle-Pock iterations when specified for minimizing a sum of a$\ell _2$-norm data-term and an analysis sparse prior. The parameters of our network are the step-sizes of the Chambolle-Pock scheme and the linear operator involved in sparsity-based penalization, including implicitly the regularization parameter. A backpropagation procedure is fully described. Preliminary experiments illustrate the good behavior of such a deep primal-dual network in the context of image restoration on BSD68 database.
