Chebyshev Inertial Landweber Algorithm for Linear Inverse Problems

Abstract: The Landweber algorithm defined on complex/real Hilbert spaces is a gradient descent algorithm for linear inverse problems. Our contribution is to present a novel method for accelerating convergence of the Landweber algorithm. In this paper, we first extend the theory of the Chebyshev inertial iteration to the Landweber algorithm on Hilbert spaces. An upper bound on the convergence rate clarifies the speed of global convergence of the proposed method. The Chebyshev inertial Landweber algorithm can be applied to wide class of signal recovery problems on a Hilbert space including deconvolution for continuous signals. The theoretical discussion developed in this paper naturally leads to a novel practical signal recovery algorithm. As a demonstration, a MIMO detection algorithm based on the projected Landweber algorithm is derived. The proposed MIMO detection algorithm achieves much smaller symbol error rate compared with the MMSE detector.
