A note on the Bregmanized Total Variation and dual forms

2009

This paper considers two approaches to perform image restoration while preserving the contrast. The first one is the Total Variation-based Bregman iterations while the second consists in the minimization of an energy that involves robust edge preserving regularization. We show that these two approaches can be derived form a common framework. This allows us to deduce new properties and to extend and generalize these two previous approaches.

A Nonlinear Primal-Dual Method for Total Variation-Based Image Restoration

1999

We present a new method for solving total variation (TV) minimization problems in image restoration. The main idea is to remove some of the singularity caused by the nondifferentiability of the quantity $|\nabla u|$ in the definition of the TV-norm before we apply a linearization technique such as Newton's method. This is accomplished by introducing an additional variable for the flux quantity appearing in the gradient of the objective function, which can be interpreted as the normal vector to the level sets of the image u. Our method can be viewed as a primal-dual method as proposed by Conn and Overton [ A Primal-Dual Interior Point Method for Minimizing a Sum of Euclidean Norms, preprint,…
