Trust your source: quantifying source condition elements for variational regularisation methods
share
Source conditions are a key tool in variational regularisation to derive error estimates and convergence rates for ill-posed inverse problems. In this paper, we provide a recipe to practically compute source condition elements as the solution of convex minimisation problems that can be solved with first-order algorithms. We demonstrate the validity of our approach by testing it for two inverse problem case studies in machine learning and image processing: sparse coefficient estimation of a polynomial via LASSO regression and recovering an image from a subset of the coefficients of its Fourier transform. We further demonstrate that the proposed approach can easily be modified to solve the machine learning task of identifying the optimal sampling pattern in the Fourier domain for given image and variational regularisation method, which has applications in the context of sparsity promoting reconstruction from magnetic resonance imaging data.
