“…While several numerical methods have proliferated for solving (1) in which the fidelity term is measured with the 2 norm, e.g. (Chen et al, 2001;Kim et al, 2007;Figueiredo et al, 2007;Wright et al, 2008;Argaez et al, 2011;Becker et al, 2010), research efforts aimed at solving (1) as it is presented here have been more limited. Such works include Fu et al (2006), where problem (1) is posed as a linear programming problem and solved using interior point methods; Nikolova (2004), who considers the denoising case, i.e.…”
