The \(\ell^2\) norm is the default loss function for complex image reconstruction. In this work, we investigate the behavior of the \(\ell^1\) and \(\ell^2\) loss functions for complex image reconstruction with non-complex-valued models. Simulations show that these norms assign a lower loss to reconstructions with lower magnitude, introducing an asymmetry in the loss function. To address this, we propose a new, symmetric loss function, and train deep learning models to show that the proposed loss function achieves better performance and faster convergence on complex image reconstruction tasks.
