Cauchy-like Preconditioners for 2-D Ill-posed Problems

Ill-conditioned matrices with block Toeplitz, Toeplitz block
(BTTB) structure arise from the discretization of certain ill-posed
problems in signal and image processing. We use a preconditioned
conjugate gradient algorithm to compute a regularized solution to this
linear system given noisy data. Our preconditioner is a row rank,
Cauchy-like block diagonal approximation to the unitarily transformed
BTTB matrix, augmented by an identity matrix. We show our preconditioner
has desirable properties and demonstrate its effectiveness on some
examples.
