Subspace Recycling for Sequences of Shifted Systems with Applications in Image Recovery
share
For many applications involving a sequence of linear systems with slowly changing system matrices, subspace recycling, which exploits relationships among systems and reuses search space information, can achieve huge gains in iterations across the total number of linear system solves in the sequence. However, for general (i.e., non-identity) shifted systems with the shift value varying over a wide range, the properties of the linear systems vary widely as well, which makes recycling less effective. If such a sequence of systems is embedded in a nonlinear iteration, the problem is compounded, and special approaches are needed to use recycling effectively. In this paper, we develop new, more efficient, Krylov subspace recycling approaches for large-scale image reconstruction and restoration techniques that employ a nonlinear iteration to compute a suitable regularization matrix. For each new regularization matrix, we need to solve regularized linear systems, A + γ_ℓ E_k, for a sequence of regularization parameters, γ_ℓ, to find the optimally regularized solution that, in turn, will be used to update the regularization matrix. In this paper, we analyze system and solution characteristics to choose appropriate techniques to solve each system rapidly. Specifically, we use an inner-outer recycling approach with a larger, principal recycle space for each nonlinear step and smaller recycle spaces for each shift. We propose an efficient way to obtain good initial guesses from the principle recycle space and smaller shift-specific recycle spaces that lead to fast convergence. Our method is substantially reduces the total number of matrix-vector products that would arise in a naive approach. Our approach is more generally applicable to sequences of shifted systems where the matrices in the sum are positive semi-definite.
