Partial differential equations and variational methods were introduced into image processing about 15 years ago, and intensive research has been carried out since then. The main goal of this work is to present the variety of image analysis applications and the precise mathematics involved. It is intended for two audiences. The first is the mathematical community, to show the contribution of mathematics to this domain and to highlight some unresolved theoretical questions. The second is the computer vision community, to present a clear, self-contained, and global overview of the mathematics involved in image processing problems. This book will be useful to researchers and graduate students in mathematics and computer vision.
From the reviews:
MATHEMATICAL REVIEWS
"The authors have substantially contributed to many aspects of the subjectThe level of the book is advanced, and the exposition very clear, developed in depth, and to some extent self-contained. The proofs of the main theorems are usually given in detail; when necessary there is also a precise reference to the ample literature on the specific topic. This book will certainly interest both mathematicians (some interesting, still open theoretical questions there are highlighted) and researchers in computer visionThe books substantial and up-to-date body for reference is a detailed guide to the literature on the many aspects of image processing."
