We propose an image denoising method by combining overlapping group sparsity and second-order total variation regularization. The method is named OGS-SOTV (image denoising method based on Overlapping Group Sparsity and Second-Order Total Variation regularization). The method utilizes performance of noise removal of overlapping group sparsity and performance of artifacts elimination of second-order total variation. A regularization parameter estimation is also proposed to implement the method automatically. In experiments, we compare denoising results of OGS-SOTV with ones of other similar methods. Results confirmed that OGS-SOTV works effectively and outperforms other similar denoising methods.
