Abstract: Motivated by image recovery in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), we propose a new approach to solving linear inverse problems based on iteratively calling a deep neural-network, sometimes referred to as plug-and-play recovery. Our approach is based on the vector approximate message passing (VAMP) algorithm, which is known for mean-squared error (MSE)-optimal recovery under certain conditions. The forward operator in MRI, however, does not satisfy these conditions, and thus we design new damping and initialization schemes to help VAMP. The resulting DD-VAMP++ algorithm is shown to outperform existing algorithms in convergence speed and accuracy when recovering images from the fastMRI database for the practical case of Cartesian sampling.
