Learning optimal orders of the underlying Euclidean norm in total variation image denoising

A novel class of semi-norms, generalising the notion of the isotropic total variation $TV_{2}$ and the an-isotropic total variation $TV_{1}$ is introduced. A supervised learning method via bilevel optimisation is proposed for the computation of optimal parameters for this class of regularizers. Existence of solutions to the bilevel optimisation approach is proven. Moreover, a finite-dimensional approximation scheme for the bilevel optimisation approach is introduced that can numerically compute a global optimizer to any given accuracy.
