With the development of compressive sensing theory, image reconstruction from few-view projections has received considerable research attentions in the field of computed tomography (CT). Total-variation- (TV-) based CT image reconstruction has been shown to be experimentally capable of producing accurate reconstructions from sparse-view data. In this study, a distributed reconstruction algorithm based on TV minimization has been developed. This algorithm is very simple as it uses the alternating direction method. The proposed method can accelerate the alternating direction total variation minimization (ADTVM) algorithm without losing accuracy.

The l1-norm regularization has attracted attention for image reconstruction in computed tomography. The l0-norm of the gradients of an image provides a measure of the sparsity of gradients of the image. In this paper, we present a new combined l1-norm and l0-norm regularization model for image reconstruction from limited projection data in computed tomography. We also propose an algorithm in the algebraic framework to solve the optimization effectively using the nonmonotone alternating direction algorithm with hard thresholding method. Numerical experiments indicate that this new algorithm makes much improvement by involving l0-norm regularization.

Total variation (TV)-based CT image reconstruction has been shown to be experimentally capable of producing accurate reconstructions from sparse-view data. In this study, an inexact distributed reconstruction algorithm based on TV minimization has been developed. The algorithm is relatively simple as it uses the inexact alternating direction method, which involves linearization and proximal points techniques. The outstanding acceleration factor is achieved as the algorithm distributes the data and computation to individual nodes. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can accelerate the alternating direction total variation minimization (ADTVM) algorithm with very little accuracy loss.
