A nonconvex nonsmooth image prior based on the hyperbolic tangent function (Q6084629)

Consider the inverse image problem. The paper proposes a nonconvex nonsmooth image based on the hyperbolic tangent function. The authors give an image processing model based on the proposed prior and apply the alternating direction method of the multipliers algorithm to solve it. The proposed image prior is applied to three kinds of image inverse problems and efficient numerical algorithms are derived. The parameter sensitivity and the initialization sensitivity of the proposed method are discussed. The performance of the proposed method is demonstrated by some experimental results.
