We consider and analyze a regularization functional composed of a data-fidelity term, where signal and noise are additively mixed, a non-smooth, convex, sparsity promoting term, and a quadratic penalty term to model the noise. We prove not only that the well-established theory for sparse recovery in the single parameter case can be translated to the multi-penalty settings, but we also demonstrate the enhanced properties of multi-penalty regularization in terms of support identification compared to sole l1-minimization. We additionally confirm and support the theoretical results by extensive numerical simulations, which give a statistics of robustness of the multi-penalty regularization scheme with respect to the single-parameter counterpart. Eventually, we confirm a significant improvement in performance compared to standard l1-regularizationfor compressive sensing problems considered in our experiments.}, year = {2016}, journal = {Inverse Problems}, volume = {32}, month = {04/2016}, publisher = {IOP}, url = {http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/0266-5611/32/10/104007/meta}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1088/0266-5611/32/10/104007}, }
