Half quadratic regularization

  This method is based on the introduction of an auxiliary variable b related to the presence of discontinuities. If the regularizing function verifies some properties (cf. [3][5]), then we have :
with strictly convex and deduced from the regularizing function. The auxiliary variable is :
We get the following functional
which is convex with respect to (wrt) b and locally quadratic wrt (according to the definition of W ).
