title = "A Fast Algorithm for Deconvolution and Poisson Noise Removal",
abstract = "Poisson noise removal problems have attracted much attention in recent years. The main aim of this paper is to study and propose an alternating minimization algorithm for Poisson noise removal with nonnegative constraint. The algorithm minimizes the sum of a Kullback-Leibler divergence term and a total variation term. We derive the algorithm by utilizing the quadratic penalty function technique. Moreover, the convergence of the proposed algorithm is also established under very mild conditions. Numerical comparisons between our approach and several state-of-the-art algorithms are presented to demonstrate the efficiency of our proposed algorithm.",
