pnp-mace 0.1.0

Demonstrations of the PnP algorithm and MACE framework on simple image reconstruction problems.

Introduction

This python package provides methods and utilities to explore the PnP algorithm and MACE framework in the context of image reconstruction problems, along with some simple demos. The ideas leading to this package are outlined in

• A SIAM News overview article from March 2021

• The 2020 SIAM Imaging Sciences Best Paper Award lecture

with more detail in the papers in the references.

Documentation on this package is available at https://pnp-mace.readthedocs.io, which includes installation instructions.

Demo files are available as python scripts and Jupyter notebooks. See the Demos page for more details.
