Instructions to generate trained ICCNet and FidNet model files and plot results

Preparation

Download the whole package by clicking Download ZIP and extract it to any directory. (Do not alter the subdirectories.)
Extract all files downloaded from https://github.com/qMLE/qMLE into the MATLAB subdirectory. They execute maximum-likelihood procedures very quickly using projected-gradient methods.
Ensure that the MATLAB CVX package is properly installed and set to PATH. We need this to run semidefinite programs.

MATLAB runs

Generate training examples

Run train_ex_gen.m with MATLAB and generate raw training examples in the directory /raw_training_examples/train_ex_*/D16/raw_data/ for all four data types *: Haar, Haar_N_1000, ACT and ACT_N_1000.
Run raw2X_train.m to generate packaged input X_*.mat and output matrices y_*.mat, which are located in the directory /training/*_perf_noisy_ex/. These files will be used to train ICCNet and FidNet on Python.

Generate test examples

Run test_ex_gen.m with MATLAB and generate raw testing examples in the directory /raw_test_examples/D16/raw_data/ for all four data types and state ranks between 1 and 3.
Run raw2X_test.m to generate the corresponding processed input and output files.

Python runs

Run ICCNet_trainer.ipynb to train ICCNet. All trained model files will be stored in /training/*_perf_noisy_ex/ICCNet_trained_files/.
Run FidNet_trainer.ipynb to train FidNet. All trained model files will be stored in /training/*_perf_noisy_ex/FidNet_trained_files/.
Execute Net_evaluator.ipynb to carry out predictions with the trained model files on test datasets found in /raw_test_examples/ and plots the results.

Sample results

Due to space constraints, only the final ICCNet and FidNet prediction results are included in this package as MATLAB MAT files. These files are generated from pre-trained neural-network models created with 2000 training datasets per data type, which are fewer than those used in the related article. They comprise 16 files:

8 files for ICCNet

/training/8000_perf_noisy_ex/ICCNet_trained_files/model_ICCNet_scvx_*.mat

/training/8000_perf_noisy_ex/ICCNet_trained_files/model_ICCNet_scvx_pred_*.mat

and 8 for FidNet

/training/8000_perf_noisy_ex/FidNet_trained_files/model_FidNet_fid_*.mat

/training/8000_perf_noisy_ex/FidNet_trained_files/model_FidNet_fid_pred_*.mat

While better results can be obtained with more training datasets, as a preview, some important results are shown regarding the training and evaluation of ICCNet and FidNet based on the aforementioned included files:
