The bound shows that the solutions of the L1/2 regularization can achieve a loss within logarithmic factor of an ideal mean squared error and therefore underlies the feasibility and effectiveness of the L1/2 regularization. Interestingly, when applied to compressive sensing, the L1/2 regularization scheme has exhibited a very promising capability of completed recovery from a much less sampling information. As compared with the Lp （0 〈 p 〈 1） penalty, it is appeared that the L1/2 penalty can always yield the most sparse solution among all the Lv penalty when 1/2 〈 p 〈 1, and when 0 〈 p 〈 1/2, the Lp penalty exhibits the similar properties as the L1/2 penalty. This suggests that the L1/2 regularization scheme can be accepted as the best and therefore the representative of all the Lp （0 〈 p 〈 1） regularization schemes.展开更多
