TY - JOUR JF - Signal Processing PB - Elsevier IS - 4 SN - 0165-1684 EP - 911 ID - eprints1529 N2 - Sparse FIR filters have lower implementation complexity than full filters, while keeping a good performance level. This paper describes a new method for designing 1D and 2D sparse filters in the minimax sense using a mixture of reweighted l1 minimization and greedy iterations. The combination proves to be quite efficient; after the reweighted l1 minimization stage introduces zero coefficients in bulk, a small number of greedy iterations serve to eliminate a few extra coefficients. Experimental results and a comparison with the latest methods show that the proposed method performs very well both in the running speed and in the quality of the solutions obtained.
