Inverse imaging problems are inherently under-determined, and hence it is important to employ appropriate image priors for regularization. One recent popular prior---the graph Laplacian regularizer---assumes that the target pixel patch is…

The graph Laplacian is an important tool in Graph Signal Processing (GSP) as its eigenvalue decomposition acts as an analogue to the Fourier transform and is known as the Graph Fourier Transform (GFT). The line graph has a GFT that is a…
