Abstract
Deep learning has proved to be a powerful tool in many domains, including inverse imaging problems. However, most existing successful deep learning solutions to these inverse problems are based on supervised learning, which requires many ground-truth images for training a deep neural network (DNN). This prerequisite on training datasets limits their applicability in data-limited domains, such as medicine and science. In this talk, we will introduce a series of works on self-supervised learning for solving inverse imaging problems. Our approach teaches a DNN to predict images from their noisy and partial measurements without seeing any related truth image, which is achieved by neuralization of Bayesian inference with DNN-based over-parametrization of images. Surprisingly, our proposed self-supervised method can compete well against supervised learning methods in many real-world imaging tasks.
