Abstract
In this paper, we investigate various connections between wavelet shrinkage methods in image processing and Bayesian estimation using Generalized Gaussian priors. We present fundamental properties of the shrinkage rules implied by Generalized Gaussian and other heavy-tailed priors. This allows us to show a simple relationship between differentiability of the log-prior at zero and the sparsity of the estimates, as well as an equivalence between universal thresholding schemes and Bayesian estimation using a certain Generalized Gaussian prior.
