A Simplified Convex Optimization Model for Image Restoration with Multiplicative Noise.

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a novel convex variational model for image restoration with multiplicative noise. To preserve the edges in the restored image, our model incorporates a total variation regularizer. Additionally, we impose an equality constraint on the data fidelity term, which simplifies the model selection process and promotes sparsity in the solution. We adopt the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) method to solve the model efficiently. To validate the effectiveness of our model, we conduct numerical experiments on both real and synthetic noise images, and compare its performance with existing methods. The experimental results demonstrate the superiority of our model in terms of PSNR and visual quality.
