New Algorithms in Information Science

Bregman distance has been around since 1967. It turns out to lead to unreasonably effective and somewhat familiar optimization techniques involving L1, BV and related penalty terms which arise in a host of new and important algorithms, e.g., compressive sending, nonlocal means. I'll discuss this and give several application, including hypperspectral and medical imaging.
