Heavy-ball-based optimal thresholding algorithms for sparse linear inverse problems
share
Linear inverse problems arise in diverse engineering fields especially in signal and image reconstruction. The development of computational methods for linear inverse problems with sparsity tool is one of the recent trends in this area. The so-called optimal k-thresholding is a newly introduced method for sparse optimization and linear inverse problems. Compared to other sparsity-aware algorithms, the advantage of optimal k-thresholding method lies in that it performs thresholding and error metric reduction simultaneously and thus works stably and robustly for solving medium-sized linear inverse problems. However, the runtime of this method remains high when the problem size is relatively large. The purpose of this paper is to propose an acceleration strategy for this method. Specifically, we propose a heavy-ball-based optimal k-thresholding (HBOT) algorithm and its relaxed variants for sparse linear inverse problems. The convergence of these algorithms is shown under the restricted isometry property. In addition, the numerical performance of the heavy-ball-based relaxed optimal k-thresholding pursuit (HBROTP) has been studied, and simulations indicate that HBROTP admits robust capability for signal and image reconstruction even in noisy environments.
