Abstract

Computational imaging plays a pivotal role in determining hidden information from sparse measurements. A robust inverse solver is crucial to fully characterize the uncertainty induced by these measurements, as it allows for the estimation of the complete posterior of unrecoverable targets. This, in turn, facilitates a probabilistic interpretation of observational data for decision-making. In this study, we propose a deep variational framework that leverages a deep generative model to learn an approximate posterior distribution to effectively quantify image reconstruction uncertainty without the need for training data. We parameterize the target posterior using a flow-based model and minimize their Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence to achieve accurate uncertainty estimation. To bolster stability, we introduce a robust flow-based model with bi-directional regularization and enhance expressivity through gradient boosting. Additionally, we incorporate a space-filling design to achieve substantial variance reduction on both latent prior space and target posterior space. We validate our method on several benchmark tasks and two real-world applications, namely fastMRI and black hole image reconstruction. Our results indicate that our method provides reliable and high-quality image reconstruction with robust uncertainty estimation.
