Fast Nonconvex Nonsmooth Minimization Methods for Image Restoration and Reconstruction
Nonconvex nonsmooth regularization has advantages over convex regularization for restoring images with neat edges. However, its practical interest used to be limited by the difficu...

Minimization of a Detail-Preserving Regularization Functional for Impulse Noise Removal
Recently, a powerful two-phase method for restoring images corrupted with high level impulse noise has been developed. The main drawback of the method is the computational efficie...

Efficient Reconstruction of Piecewise Constant Images Using Nonsmooth Nonconvex Minimization
We consider the restoration of piecewise constant images where the number of the regions and their values are not fixed in advance, with a good difference of piecewise constant val...

A Quasi-Newton Approach to Nonsmooth Convex Optimization Problems in Machine Learning
We extend the well-known BFGS quasi-Newton method and its memory-limited variant LBFGS to the optimization of nonsmooth convex objectives. This is done in a rigorous fashion by ge...

Smoothing Nonlinear Conjugate Gradient Method for Image Restoration Using Nonsmooth Nonconvex Minimization
Image restoration problems are often converted into large-scale, nonsmooth and nonconvex optimization problems. Most existing minimization methods are not efficient for solving su...
