A Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) with generator $G$ trained to model the prior of images has been shown to perform better than sparsity-based regularizers in ill-posed inverse problems. Here, we propose a new method of deploying a GAN-based prior to solve linear inverse problems using projected gradient descent (PGD). Our method learns a network-based projector for use in the PGD algorithm, eliminating expensive computation of the Jacobian of $G$. Experiments show that our approach provides a speed-up of $60text{-}80times$ over earlier GAN-based recovery methods along with better accuracy. Our main theoretical result is that if the measurement matrix is moderately conditioned on the manifold range($G$) and the projector is $delta$-approximate, then the algorithm is guaranteed to reach $O(delta)$ reconstruction error in $O(log(1/delta))$ steps in the low noise regime. Additionally, we propose a fast method to design such measurement matrices for a given $G$. Extensive experiments demonstrate the efficacy of this method by requiring $5text{-}10times$ fewer measurements than random Gaussian measurement matrices for comparable recovery performance. Because the learning of the GAN and projector is decoupled from the measurement operator, our GAN-based projector and recovery algorithm are applicable without retraining to all linear inverse problems, as confirmed by experiments on compressed sensing, super-resolution, and inpainting.

Previous studies on stochastic primal-dual algorithms for solving min-max problems with faster convergence heavily rely on the bilinear structure of the problem, which restricts their applicability to a narrowed range of problems. The main contributi
on of this paper is the design and analysis of new stochastic primal-dual algorithms that use a mixture of stochastic gradient updates and a logarithmic number of deterministic dual updates for solving a family of convex-concave problems with no bilinear structure assumed. Faster convergence rates than $O(1/sqrt{T})$ with $T$ being the number of stochastic gradient updates are established under some mild conditions of involved functions on the primal and the dual variable. For example, for a family of problems that enjoy a weak strong convexity in terms of the primal variable and has a strongly concave function of the dual variable, the convergence rate of the proposed algorithm is $O(1/T)$. We also investigate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms for learning robust models and empirical AUC maximization.
Plug-and-play priors (PnP) is a broadly applicable methodology for solving inverse problems by exploiting statistical priors specified as denoisers. Recent work has reported the state-of-the-art performance of PnP algorithms using pre-trained deep ne
ural nets as denoisers in a number of imaging applications. However, current PnP algorithms are impractical in large-scale settings due to their heavy computational and memory requirements. This work addresses this issue by proposing an incremental variant of the widely used PnP-ADMM algorithm, making it scalable to large-scale datasets. We theoretically analyze the convergence of the algorithm under a set of explicit assumptions, extending recent theoretical results in the area. Additionally, we show the effectiveness of our algorithm with nonsmooth data-fidelity terms and deep neural net priors, its fast convergence compared to existing PnP algorithms, and its scalability in terms of speed and memory.
In inverse problems, we often have access to data consisting of paired samples $(x,y)sim p_{X,Y}(x,y)$ where $y$ are partial observations of a physical system, and $x$ represents the unknowns of the problem. Under these circumstances, we can employ s
upervised training to learn a solution $x$ and its uncertainty from the observations $y$. We refer to this problem as the supervised case. However, the data $ysim p_{Y}(y)$ collected at one point could be distributed differently than observations $ysim p_{Y}(y)$, relevant for a current set of problems. In the context of Bayesian inference, we propose a two-step scheme, which makes use of normalizing flows and joint data to train a conditional generator $q_{theta}(x|y)$ to approximate the target posterior density $p_{X|Y}(x|y)$. Additionally, this preliminary phase provides a density function $q_{theta}(x|y)$, which can be recast as a prior for the unsupervised problem, e.g.~when only the observations $ysim p_{Y}(y)$, a likelihood model $y|x$, and a prior on $x$ are known. We then train another invertible generator with output density $q_{phi}(x|y)$ specifically for $y$, allowing us to sample from the posterior $p_{X|Y}(x|y)$. We present some synthetic results that demonstrate considerable training speedup when reusing the pretrained network $q_{theta}(x|y)$ as a warm start or preconditioning for approximating $p_{X|Y}(x|y)$, instead of learning from scratch. This training modality can be interpreted as an instance of transfer learning. This result is particularly relevant for large-scale inverse problems that employ expensive numerical simulations.
Recently, invariant risk minimization (IRM) (Arjovsky et al.) was proposed as a promising solution to address out-of-distribution (OOD) generalization. In Ahuja et al., it was shown that solving for the Nash equilibria of a new class of ensemble-game
s is equivalent to solving IRM. In this work, we extend the framework in Ahuja et al. for linear regressions by projecting the ensemble-game on an $ell_{infty}$ ball. We show that such projections help achieve non-trivial OOD guarantees despite not achieving perfect invariance. For linear models with confounders, we prove that Nash equilibria of these games are closer to the ideal OOD solutions than the standard empirical risk minimization (ERM) and we also provide learning algorithms that provably converge to these Nash Equilibria. Empirical comparisons of the proposed approach with the state-of-the-art show consistent gains in achieving OOD solutions in several settings involving anti-causal variables and confounders.
We study the problem of meta-learning through the lens of online convex optimization, developing a meta-algorithm bridging the gap between popular gradient-based meta-learning and classical regularization-based multi-task transfer methods. Our method
is the first to simultaneously satisfy good sample efficiency guarantees in the convex setting, with generalization bounds that improve with task-similarity, while also being computationally scalable to modern deep learning architectures and the many-task setting. Despite its simplicity, the algorithm matches, up to a constant factor, a lower bound on the performance of any such parameter-transfer method under natural task similarity assumptions. We use experiments in both convex and deep learning settings to verify and demonstrate the applicability of our theory.
