  The aim of this article is to present two different primal-dual methods for
solving structured monotone inclusions involving parallel sums of compositions
of maximally monotone operators with linear bounded operators. By employing
some elaborated splitting techniques, all of the operators occurring in the
problem formulation are processed individually via forward or backward steps.
The treatment of parallel sums of linearly composed maximally monotone
operators is motivated by applications in imaging which involve first- and
second-order total variation functionals, to which a special attention is
given.
