Wavelet forward–backward splitting: pipeline round 2.

Input: Visibilities: V
Input: Stepsize: τ (chosen artificially, such that algorithm converges)
Input: Regularization Parameter: α
Input: Total flux: f
Precompute needed data terms and operators
   Define a dictionary of basis functions(wavelets): Γ
   Define a forward operator: G : IFΓI (note G is linear)
   Define a data-fidelity functional: df : ISlca(V, GI) + Scph(V, ΓI)
   Precompute gradient of data-fidelity functional: df′[I]
   Define a penalty term: pen : I ↦ |support(x)| (l0-norm)
   Precompute proximal operator of penalty term: proxτ (hard thrinkage operator, Eq. (25))
   I = initialguess
Find initial image thresholding by minimizing Eq. (26) on a predefined grid of thresholds
   Define grid of possible thresholds: ti
   for i = 1, 2, 3, … do
      Hard thresholding:
      mini = df (testi) + αpen(testi)
   Find minimum i and update initial guess
   mintot = mini
   for j = 0, 1, 2, …, J do
      for i = 1, 2, 3, … do
         Hard thresholding single scale:
         mini,j = df (testi,j) + αpen(testi,j)
         if mini,j < mintot then
                  mintot = mini,j
         
Start forward–backward iterations from this guess
   while stopping-rule 1 do
      while stopping-rule 2 do
         I = I - τ d f′ [I]
         I = proxτ·α(I)
      I = I·f/sumI)
   Compute Multiresolution support M = {I ≠ 0}
Output: I is approximate minimizer to Eq. (26)
Output: Î = ΓI is an approximation to the true sky brightness distribution
Output: As a byproduct M is a reasonable multi-resolution support
