Maximum-a-posteriori estimation with unknown regularisation parameters: combining deterministic and Bayesian approachesMS54

This talk presents a highly efficient Bayesian computation methodology to solve imaging inverse problems with unknown regularisation parameters. A main novelty of this methodology is that it uses stochastic optimisation algorithms that are driven by proximal Markov chain Monte Carlo samplers, tightly integrating modern high-dimensional Monte Carlo sampling and convex optimisation approaches. The proposed methodology is demonstrated on several challenging imaging problems and compared to other techniques to set regularisation parameters.
