Proposes Fast-IPGDF, an inertial proximal gradient algorithm with dry friction and Nesterov-style acceleration for slice-based convolutional sparse coding, to improve EPI-based 3D localization of fluorescent beads in light field microscopy.
Problem
Neuron/point-source 3D localization from single light field microscopy images is less accurate at greater depths and in noisy conditions, and ADMM-based convolutional sparse coding solvers can converge to local minima and are slow.
Approach
Replaces ADMM in the convolutional sparse coding model with an accelerated inertial proximal gradient method using a dry friction term (Heavy Ball with Dry Friction), with a slice-based CSC formulation, to avoid local minima and speed convergence for depth matching on EPIs.
Key results
- Fast-IPGDF processes a single EPI in 2.235 s versus 6.489 s for the ADMM-based method, about 2.9x faster.
- Under Poisson noise (PSNR ~24 dB), the ADMM-based method's localization curve fluctuates and fails, while Fast-IPGDF localizes depth accurately with minimal x/y error.
- Best RMSE of 2.11e-6 at dry friction coefficient r=0.05; RMSE rises to 3.97e-6 at viscous damping γ=55.

| set viscous damping parameter γ to 10 instead of 30 (ablation) | Fast-IPGDF · Localization experiment | RMSE (10−6): 2.41 -> 2.59 | Hurt |
| increase viscous damping parameter γ from 30 to 55 (ablation) | Fast-IPGDF · Localization experiment | RMSE (10−6): 2.41 -> 3.97 | Hurt |
| increase viscous damping parameter γ from 30 to 65 (ablation) | Fast-IPGDF · Localization experiment | RMSE (10−6): 2.41 -> 5.83 | Hurt |
Surprising findings
- Increasing the viscous damping parameter γ beyond a point degrades RMSE (5.83e-6 at γ=65), and larger γ also increases iteration count.
Limitations
- Accuracy decreases as depth increases, and experiments use simulated/non-scattered fluorescent beads only.
- Convergence results are derived from prior theory and evaluated on a limited set of synthetic bead experiments.
