Abstract

In this paper, we propose a nonconvex log total variation model for image restoration. A specific alternating direction method of multipliers is also presented to solve the nonconvex optimization model. Under mild conditions, we prove that the sequence generated by the proposed alternating direction method of multipliers converges to a stationary point. Experiment results on image denoising, image deblurring, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and image super-resolution demonstrate that the proposed method is effective and improves the quality of image recovery.
