Learned Block Iterative Shrinkage Thresholding Algorithm for Photothermal Super Resolution Imaging
Sensors, 2022 Block-sparse regularization is already well known in active thermal imaging and is used for multiple-measurement-based inverse problems. The main bottleneck of this method is the choice of regularization parameters which differs for each experiment.

Testing causal quantum theory [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2018 Causal quantum theory assumes that measurements or collapses are well-defined physical processes, localized in space–time, and never give perfectly reliable outcomes and that the outcome of one measurement only influences the outcomes of others within its future light cone.
