Abstract

The problem of finding sparse solutions to underdetermined systems of linear equations is very common in many fields as e.g. signal/image processing and statistics. A standard tool for dealing with sparse recovery is the $$\ell _1$$ ℓ 1 -regularized least-squares approach that has recently attracted the attention of many researchers. In this paper, we describe a new version of the two-block nonlinear constrained Gauss–Seidel algorithm for solving $$\ell _1$$ ℓ 1 -regularized least-squares that at each step of the iteration process fixes some variables to zero according to a simple active-set strategy. We prove the global convergence of the new algorithm and we show its efficiency reporting the results of some preliminary numerical experiments.
