  Inversion of the K-fold stochastic autoconvolution integral equation is an
elementary nonlinear problem, yet there are no de facto methods to solve it
with finite statistics. To fix this problem, we introduce a novel inverse
algorithm based on a combination of minimization of relative entropy, the Fast
Fourier Transform and a recursive version of Efron's bootstrap. This gives us
power to obtain new perspectives on non-perturbative high energy QCD, such as
probing the ab initio principles underlying the approximately negative binomial
distributions of observed charged particle final state multiplicities, related
to multiparton interactions, the fluctuating structure and profile of proton
and diffraction. As a proof-of-concept, we apply the algorithm to ALICE
proton-proton charged particle multiplicity measurements done at different
center-of-mass energies and fiducial pseudorapidity intervals at the LHC,
available on HEPData. A strong double peak structure emerges from the
inversion, barely visible without it.
