Abstract

Orthogonal Matching Pursuit (OMP) is a good candidate for solving energy function optimization problems. In this paper, we propose a novel auxiliary coefficient representation for the problem of image de-fencing. To improve the optimization efficiency of the OMP algorithm, we propose a heuristic form of the OMP (named h-OMP) approximation based on auxiliary coefficient representation. A frequency-domain optimization approach is derived by selecting an over-complete example set for the image signal, the h-OMP algorithm is used to simultaneously remove the fences on the image matrix and find the auxiliary coefficient basis to form the image segment. Experiments show that the proposed h-OMP algorithm generates better output image, whose performance is superior in terms of both subjective and objective evaluation criteria.

  1. The term “fence” here just means physically literal fence, such as shown in Figure 4.
