We propose a blind deconvolution method for signals on graphs, with the exact sparseness constraint for the original signal. Graph blind deconvolution is an algorithm for estimating the original signal on a graph from a set of blurred and noisy measurements. Imposing a constraint on the number of nonzero elements is desirable for many different applications. This paper deals with the problem with constraints placed on the exact number of original sources, which is given by an optimization problem with an $ell_0$ norm constraint. We solve this non-convex optimization problem using the ADMM iterative solver. Numerical experiments using synthetic signals demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

In this paper, we incorporate a graph filter deconvolution step into the classical geometric convolutional neural network pipeline. More precisely, under the assumption that the graph domain plays a role in the generation of the observed graph signal s, we pre-process every signal by passing it through a sparse deconvolution operation governed by a pre-specified filter bank. This deconvolution operation is formulated as a group-sparse recovery problem, and convex relaxations that can be solved efficiently are put forth. The deconvolved signals are then fed into the geometric convolutional neural network, yielding better classification performance than their unprocessed counterparts. Numerical experiments showcase the effectiveness of the deconvolution step on classification tasks on both synthetic and real-world settings.

In the blind deconvolution problem, we observe the convolution of an unknown filter and unknown signal and attempt to reconstruct the filter and signal. The problem seems impossible in general, since there are seemingly many more unknowns than knowns . Nevertheless, this problem arises in many application fields; and empirically, some of these fields have had success using heuristic methods -- even economically very important ones, in wireless communications and oil exploration. Todays fashionable heuristic formulations pose non-convex optimization problems which are then attacked heuristically as well. The fact that blind deconvolution can be solved under some repeatable and naturally-occurring circumstances poses a theoretical puzzle. To bridge the gulf between reported successes and theorys limited understanding, we exhibit a convex optimization problem that -- assuming signal sparsity -- can convert a crude approximation to the true filter into a high-accuracy recovery of the true filter. Our proposed formulation is based on L1 minimization of inverse filter outputs. We give sharp guarantees on performance of the minimizer assuming sparsity of signal, showing that our proposal precisely recovers the true inverse filter, up to shift and rescaling. There is a sparsity/initial accuracy tradeoff: the less accurate the initial approximation, the greater we rely on sparsity to enable exact recovery. To our knowledge this is the first reported tradeoff of this kind. We consider it surprising that this tradeoff is independent of dimension. We also develop finite-$N$ guarantees, for highly accurate reconstruction under $Ngeq O(k log(k) )$ with high probability. We further show stable approximation when the true inverse filter is infinitely long and extend our guarantees to the case where the observations are contaminated by stochastic or adversarial noise.

Short-and-sparse deconvolution (SaSD) is the problem of extracting localized, recurring motifs in signals with spatial or temporal structure. Variants of this problem arise in applications such as image deblurring, microscopy, neural spike sorting, a nd more. The problem is challenging in both theory and practice, as natural optimization formulations are nonconvex. Moreover, practical deconvolution problems involve smooth motifs (kernels) whose spectra decay rapidly, resulting in poor conditioning and numerical challenges. This paper is motivated by recent theoretical advances, which characterize the optimization landscape of a particular nonconvex formulation of SaSD. This is used to derive a $provable$ algorithm which exactly solves certain non-practical instances of the SaSD problem. We leverage the key ideas from this theory (sphere constraints, data-driven initialization) to develop a $practical$ algorithm, which performs well on data arising from a range of application areas. We highlight key additional challenges posed by the ill-conditioning of real SaSD problems, and suggest heuristics (acceleration, continuation, reweighting) to mitigate them. Experiments demonstrate both the performance and generality of the proposed method.
We revisit the Blind Deconvolution problem with a focus on understanding its robustness and convergence properties. Provable robustness to noise and other perturbations is receiving recent interest in vision, from obtaining immunity to adversarial at tacks to assessing and describing failure modes of algorithms in mission critical applications. Further, many blind deconvolution methods based on deep architectures internally make use of or optimize the basic formulation, so a clearer understanding of how this sub-module behaves, when it can be solved, and what noise injection it can tolerate is a first order requirement. We derive new insights into the theoretical underpinnings of blind deconvolution. The algorithm that emerges has nice convergence guarantees and is provably robust in a sense we formalize in the paper. Interestingly, these technical results play out very well in practice, where on standard datasets our algorithm yields results competitive with or superior to the state of the art. Keywords: blind deconvolution, robust continuous optimization

Multichannel blind deconvolution is the problem of recovering an unknown signal $f$ and multiple unknown channels $x_i$ from their circular convolution $y_i=x_i circledast f$ ($i=1,2,dots,N$). We consider the case where the $x_i$s are sparse, and con volution with $f$ is invertible. Our nonconvex optimization formulation solves for a filter $h$ on the unit sphere that produces sparse output $y_icircledast h$. Under some technical assumptions, we show that all local minima of the objective function correspond to the inverse filter of $f$ up to an inherent sign and shift ambiguity, and all saddle points have strictly negative curvatures. This geometric structure allows successful recovery of $f$ and $x_i$ using a simple manifold gradient descent (MGD) algorithm. Our theoretical findings are complemented by numerical experiments, which demonstrate superior performance of the proposed approach over the previous methods.
