Phase retrieval meets statistical learning theory: A flexible convex relaxation

S Bahmani, J Romberg - Artificial Intelligence and Statistics, 2017 - proceedings.mlr.press
We propose a flexible convex relaxation for the phase retrieval problem that operates in the
natural domain of the signal. Therefore, we avoid the prohibitive computational cost …
