Abstract

The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) and its variants are widely used for sparse signal recovery. However, the determination of the regularization factor requires cross-validation strategy, which may obtain a sub-optimal solution. Motivated by the self-regularization nature of sparse Bayesian learning (SBL) approach and the framework of generalized LASSO, we propose a new hierarchical Bayesian model using automatic-weighting Laplace priors in this paper. In the proposed hierarchical Bayesian model, the posterior distributions of all the parameters can be approximated using variational Bayesian inference, resulting in closed-form solutions for all parameters updating. Moreover, the space alternating variational estimation strategy is used to avoid matrix inversion, and a fast algorithm (SAVE-WLap-SBL) is proposed. Comparing to existed SBL methods, the proposed method encourages the sparsity of signals more efficiently. Numerical experiments on synthetic and real data illustrate the benefit of these advances.
