Arbitrary Shrinkage Rules for Approximation Schemes with Sparsity Constraints
نویسندگان
چکیده
Finding a sparse representation of a possibly noisy signal can be modeled as a variational minimization with `q-sparsity constraints for q less than one. Especially for real-time and on-line applications, one requires fast computations of these minimizers. However, there are no sufficiently fast algorithms, and to circumvent this limitation, we consider minimization up to a constant factor. We verify that q-dependent modifications of shrinkage rules provide closed formulas for such minimizers, and we introduce a new shrinkage rule which is adapted to q. To support the concept of shrinkage rules and minimizers up to a constant factor, we finally apply different shrinkage rules to wavelet-based variational image denoising. We verify in our numerical experiments that the H-curve criterion which is a parameter selection method already being successfully applied to soft-thresholding can yield better results if we replace softby other shrinkage rules.

Analysis of Multiresolution Image Denoising Schemes Using Generalized{gaussian Priors
In this paper, we investigate various connections between wavelet shrinkage methods in image processing and Bayesian estimation using Generalized Gaus-sian priors. We present fundamental properties of the shrinkage rules implied by Generalized Gaussian and other heavy{tailed priors. This allows us to show a simple relationship between diierentiability of the log{ prior at zero and the sparsity ...
متن کاملLocally Analytic Schemes: a Link between Diffusion Filtering and Wavelet Shrinkage
We study a class of numerical schemes for nonlinear diffusion filtering that offers insights on the design of novel wavelet shrinkage rules for isotropic and anisotropic image enhancement. These schemes utilise analytical or semi-analytical solutions to dynamical systems that result from space-discrete nonlinear diffusion filtering on minimalistic images with 2×2 pixels. We call them locally an...
متن کاملFault-Tolerant Control of a Nonlinear Process with Input Constraints
A Fault-Tolerant Control (FTC) methodology has been presented for nonlinear processes being imposed by control input constraints. The proposed methodology uses a combination of Feedback Linearization and Model Predictive Control (FLMPC) schemes. The resulting constraints in the transformed process will be dependent on the actual evolving states, making their incorporation in the de...
متن کاملAPPROXIMATION OF STOCHASTIC PARABOLIC DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS WITH TWO DIFFERENT FINITE DIFFERENCE SCHEMES
We focus on the use of two stable and accurate explicit finite difference schemes in order to approximate the solution of stochastic partial differential equations of It¨o type, in particular, parabolic equations. The main properties of these deterministic difference methods, i.e., convergence, consistency, and stability, are separately developed for the stochastic cases.
