Image restoration is one of the most fundamental issues in imaging science. Total variation (TV) regularization is widely used in image restoration problems for its capability to preserve edges. In the literature, however, it is also well…

Total Generalized Variation (TGV) has recently been introduced as penalty functional for modelling images with edges as well as smooth variations. It can be interpreted as a "sparse" penalization of optimal balancing from the first up to…

We study the JKO scheme for the total variation, characterize the optimizers, prove some of their qualitative properties (in particular a form of maximum principle and in some cases, a minimum principle as well). Finally, we establish a…
We propose a novel discrete concept for the total generalized variation (TGV), which has originally been derived to reduce the staircasing effect in classical total variation (TV) regularization, in image denoising problems. We describe…
This paper investigates the regularity of Lipschitz solutions $u$ to the general two-dimensional equation $\text{div}(G(Du))=0$ with highly degenerate ellipticity. Just assuming strict monotonicity of the field $G$ and heavily relying on…
We address the image restoration problem under Poisson noise corruption. The Kullback-Leibler divergence, which is typically adopted in the variational framework as data fidelity term in this case, is coupled with the second-order Total…
We present some results of geometric convergence of level sets for solutions of total variation denoising as the regularization parameter tends to zero. The common feature among them is that they make use of explicit constructions of…
We consider whether minimizers for total variation regularization of linear inverse problems belong to $L^\infty$ even if the measured data does not. We present a simple proof of boundedness of the minimizer for fixed regularization…
