چکیده
We show how certain nonconvex optimization problems that arise in image processing and computer vision can be restated as convex minimization problems. This allows, in particular, the finding of global minimizers via standard convex minimization schemes.

Global Minimizers of The Active Contour/Snake Model
The active contour/snake model [9, 2, 10] is one of the most wellknown segmentation variational models in image processing. However this model suffers from the existence of local minima which makes the initial guess critical for getting satisfactory results. In this paper, we propose to solve this problem by finding global minimizers of the active contour model following the original work of Ch...
متن کاملComparative Analysis of Image Denoising Methods Based on Wavelet Transform and Threshold Functions
There are many unavoidable noise interferences in image acquisition and transmission. To make it better for subsequent processing, the noise in the image should be removed in advance. There are many kinds of image noises, mainly including salt and pepper noise and Gaussian noise. This paper focuses on the research of the Gaussian noise removal. It introduces many wavelet threshold denoising alg...
