It is widely known that the total variation image restoration suffers from the stair casing artifacts which results in blocky restored images. In this paper, we address this problem by proposing a combined non-convex higher order total variation with overlapping group sparse regularizer. The hybrid scheme of both the overlapping group sparse and the non-convex higher order total variation for blocky artifact removal is complementary. The overlapping group sparse term tends to smoothen out blockiness in the restored image more globally, while the non-convex higher order term tends to smoothen parts that are more local to texture while preserving sharp edges. To solve the proposed image restoration model, we develop an iteratively re-weighted ℓ1 based alternating direction method of multipliers algorithm to deal with the constraints and subproblems. In this study, the images are degraded with different levels of Gaussian noise. A comparative analysis of the proposed method with the overlapping group sparse total variation, the Lysaker, Lundervold and Tai model, the total generalized variation and the non-convex higher order total variation, was carried out for image denoising. The results in terms of peak signal-to-noise ratio and structure similarity index measure show that the proposed method gave better performance than the compared algorithms. © 2018, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.
