Abstract
Image reconstruction from noisy and incomplete observations is usually an ill-posed problem. A Bayesian framework may be adopted do deal with this such inverse task by well posing the reconstruction problem. In this approach, the ill poseness nature of the reconstruction is removed by minimizing a two-term energy function. The first term pushes the solution toward the data and the second regularizes the solution.
