Abstract

The total variational (TV) regularization method was first proposed in14 for gray scale images and was extended in1 for vector valued images. In this work, we apply the TV regularization method to solve the multichannel image deconvolution problem. The motivation for regularizing with the TV norm is that it is extremely effective for recovering edges of images. In this paper, a fast iterative method is developed to solve the deconvolution problem. Our method involves solving linear systems and the conjugate gradient method is applied in which Fourier transform type preconditioners are used to speed up the convergence rate. Numerical experiments will demonstrate the effectiveness of the TV regularization method. In this paper, we will present some preliminary results on multichannel blind deconvolution with TV regularization.
