Linearized proximal alternating direction method of multipliers for parallel magnetic resonance imaging

In this study, we propose a linearized proximal alternating direction method with variable stepsize for solving total variation image reconstruction problems. Our method uses a linearized technique and the proximal function such that the closed form solutions of the subproblem can be easily derived. In the subproblem, we apply a variable stepsize, that is like Barzilai-Borwein stepsize, to accelerate the algorithm. Numerical results with parallel magnetic resonance imaging demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed algorithm.
