Regularization Parameter Selection Methods for Ill-Posed Poisson Maximum Likelihood Estimation
نویسندگان
چکیده
In image processing applications, image intensity is often measured via the counting of incident photons emitted by the object of interest. In such cases, image data-noise is accurately modeled by a Poisson distribution. This motivates the use of Poisson maximum likelihood estimation for image reconstruction. However, when the underlying model equation is ill-posed, regularization is needed. Regularized Poisson likelihood estimation has been studied extensively by the authors, though a problem of high importance remains: the choice of the regularization parameter. We will present three statistically motivated methods for choosing the regularization parameter, and numerical examples will be presented to illustrate their effectiveness.

The methods applied to regularization of the ill-posed problems can be classified under “direct” and “indirect” methods. Practice has shown that the effects of different regularization techniques on an ill-posed problem are not the same, and as such each ill-posed problem requires its own investigation in order to identify its most suitable regularization method. In the geoid computations witho...
متن کاملAutomatic Smoothing and Variable Selection via Regularization
This thesis focuses on developing computational methods and the general theory of automatic smoothing and variable selection via regularization. Methods of regularization are a commonly used technique to get stable solution to ill-posed problems such as nonparametric regression and classification. In recent years, methods of regularization have also been successfully introduced to address a cla...
متن کاملPerturbation-Based Regularization for Signal Estimation in Linear Discrete Ill-posed Problems
Estimating the values of unknown parameters from corrupted measured data faces a lot of challenges in ill-posed problems. In such problems, many fundamental estimation methods fail to provide a meaningful stabilized solution. In this work, we propose a new regularization approach and a new regularization parameter selection approach for linear leastsquares discrete ill-posed problems. The propo...
متن کاملA Theoretical Framework for the Regularization of Poisson Likelihood Estimation Problems
Let z = Au + γ, where γ > 0 is constant, be an ill-posed, linear operator equation. Such a model arises, for example, in both astronomical and medical imaging, in which case γ corresponds to background light intensity. Regularized solutions of this equation can be obtained by solving Rα(A, z) = arg min u≥0 {T0(Au; z) + αJ(u)}, where T0(Au; z) is the negative-log of the Poisson likelihood functi...
