A regularized deep matrix factorized model of matrix completion for image restoration
share
It has been an important approach of using matrix completion to perform image restoration. Most previous works on matrix completion focus on the low-rank property by imposing explicit constraints on the recovered matrix, such as the constraint of the nuclear norm or limiting the dimension of the matrix factorization component. Recently, theoretical works suggest that deep linear neural network has an implicit bias towards low rank on matrix completion. However, low rank is not adequate to reflect the intrinsic characteristics of a natural image. Thus, algorithms with only the constraint of low rank are insufficient to perform image restoration well. In this work, we propose a Regularized Deep Matrix Factorized (RDMF) model for image restoration, which utilizes the implicit bias of the low rank of deep neural networks and the explicit bias of total variation. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our RDMF model with extensive experiments, in which our method surpasses the state of art models in common examples, especially for the restoration from very few observations. Our work sheds light on a more general framework for solving other inverse problems by combining the implicit bias of deep learning with explicit regularization.
