QuantifAI

quantifai is a PyTorch-based open-source radio interferometric imaging reconstruction package with scalable Bayesian uncertainty quantification relying on data-driven (learned) priors. This package was used to produce the results of Liaudat et al. 2023. The quantifai model relies on the data-driven convex regulariser from Goujon et al. 2022.

In this code, we bypass the need to perform Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling for Bayesian uncertainty quantification, and we rely on convex accelerated optimisation algorithms. The quantifai package also includes MCMC algorithms for posterior sampling as they were used to validate our approach.

Note

This Python package is built on top of PyTorch, so a GPU can considerably accelerate all computations.

Installation

The quantifai package relies on the convex ridge regulariser CRR from Goujon et al. 2022. The version used to generate the results from the Liaudat et al. paper is the release v0.1 from the fork github.com/tobias-liaudat/convex_ridge_regularizers. The PyTorch wavelet support relies on the release v0.1 from the fork github.com/tobias-liaudat/PyTorch-Wavelet-Toolbox.

We have not yet pushed the Python package to PyPi; therefore, the easiest way to install quantifai is to start by cloning the repo

git clone https://github.com/astro-informatics/QuantifAI
cd QuantifAI

Continue by creating a conda environment with all the requirements already specified in environment.yml as follows

conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate quantifai_env

Finally, the quantifai package can be installed by running

pip install -e .

Note

If the user does not want to create a conda environment, they can install the dependencies in the environment.yml file. The specific version of the convex ridge regulariser, complex PyTorch support and the PyTorch wavelets used can be manually installed by running (in the following order)

pip install git+https://github.com/tobias-liaudat/[email protected]
pip install git+https://github.com/tobias-liaudat/[email protected]
pip install git+https://github.com/tobias-liaudat/[email protected]

The paper's numerical results were obtained using PyTorch version 1.13.1.

Examples & usage

The easiest way to get into using quantifai is to check the different notebooks in the example/ directory, which includes:

  • Compute the MAP estimation with the QuantifAI model (Notebook).

  • Compute the MAP estimation with the wavelet-based model (Notebook).

  • Compute the MAP-based LCIs with the QuantifAI model (Notebook).

  • Compute the MAP-based LCIs with the wavelet-based model (Notebook).

  • Compute the MAP-based fast pixel uncertainty quantification method with QuantifAI (Notebook).

  • Compute a hypothesis test on an inpainted surrogate image with QuantifAI (Notebook).

  • Sample from the posterior distribution of the QuantifAI model using the SK-ROCK algorithm (Pereyra et al. 2020) and compare the results with sample-based LCIs (Notebook).

Reproducibility

All the scripts and notebooks used to generate the plots of Liaudat et al. 2023 can be found in the paper/Liaudat2023/ directory and the data in the data/ directory.

The most computationally intensive results of the paper can be obtained by running the two scripts in paper/Liaudat2023/scripts/, where UQ_SKROCK_CRR.py corresponds to the QuantifAI model and UQ_SKROCK_wavelets.py to the wavelet-based model. The rest of the results and plots can be generated by running the different notebooks in paper/Liaudat2023/notebooks/.
