TL;DR
The paper tackles sparse recovery via the regularized basis pursuit problem and introduces surrogate hyperplane sparse Kaczmarz methods to accelerate convergence. It develops residual-based and partial residual-based implementations, grounded in Bregman-distance analysis of the $f(x)=\lambda\|x\|_1+\frac{1}{2}\|x\|_2^2$ objective, and proves linear convergence with explicit contraction factors. The authors provide detailed theoretical guarantees and extensive numerical experiments on random Gaussian and SuiteSparse matrices, as well as image restoration tasks, showing faster convergence than traditional randomized sparse Kaczmarz approaches and enhanced reconstruction quality. The work offers practical, scalable algorithms for sparse recovery in compressed sensing and imaging with strong convergence guarantees and demonstrated empirical efficiency.
Abstract
The Sparse Kaczmarz method is a famous and widely used iterative method for solving the regularized basis pursuit problem. A general scheme of the surrogate hyperplane sparse Kaczmarz method is proposed. In particular, a class of residual-based surrogate hyperplane sparse Kaczmarz method is introduced and the implementations are well discussed. Their convergence theories are proved and the linear convergence rates are studied and compared in details. Numerical experiments verify the efficiency of the proposed methods.
