Variational Image Segmentation Model Coupled with Image Restoration Achievements
Image segmentation and image restoration are two important topics in image
processing with great achievements. In this paper, we propose a new multiphase
segmentation model by combining image restoration and image segmentation
models. Utilizing image restoration aspects, the proposed segmentation model
can effectively and robustly tackle high noisy images, blurry images, images
with missing pixels, and vector-valued images. In particular, one of the most
important segmentation models, the piecewise constant Mumford-Shah model, can
be extended easily in this way to segment gray and vector-valued images
corrupted for example by noise, blur or missing pixels after coupling a new
data fidelity term which comes from image restoration topics. It can be solved
efficiently using the alternating minimization algorithm, and we prove the
convergence of this algorithm with three variables under mild condition.
Experiments on many synthetic and real-world images demonstrate that our method
gives better segmentation results in comparison to others state-of-the-art
segmentation models especially for blurry images and images with missing pixels
values.Comment: 23 page
비가우시안 잡음 영상 복원을 위한 그룹 희소 표현
학위논문(박사)--서울대학교 대학원 :자연과학대학 수리과학부,2020. 2. 강명주.For the image restoration problem, recent variational approaches exploiting nonlocal information of an image have demonstrated significant improvements compared with traditional methods utilizing local features. Hence, we propose two variational models based on the sparse representation of image groups, to recover images with non-Gaussian noise. The proposed models are designed to restore image with Cauchy noise and speckle noise, respectively. To achieve efficient and stable performance, an alternating optimization scheme with a novel initialization technique is used. Experimental results suggest that the proposed methods outperform other methods in terms of both visual perception and numerical indexes.영상 복원 문제에서, 영상의 비국지적인 정보를 활용하는 최근의 다양한 접근 방식은 국지적인 특성을 활용하는 기존 방법과 비교하여 크게 개선되었다. 따라서, 우리는 비가우시안 잡음 영상을 복원하기 위해 영상 그룹 희소 표현에 기반한 두 가지 변분법적 모델을 제안한다. 제안된 모델은 각각 코시 잡음과 스펙클 잡음 영상을 복원하도록 설계되었다. 효율적이고 안정적인 성능을 달성하기 위해, 교대 방향 승수법과 새로운 초기화 기술이 사용된다. 실험 결과는 제안된 방법이 시각적인 인식과 수치적인 지표 모두에서 다른 방법보다 우수함을 나타낸다.1 Introduction 1

Image Restoration for Remote Sensing: Overview and Toolbox
Remote sensing provides valuable information about objects or areas from a
distance in either active (e.g., RADAR and LiDAR) or passive (e.g.,
multispectral and hyperspectral) modes. The quality of data acquired by
remotely sensed imaging sensors (both active and passive) is often degraded by
a variety of noise types and artifacts. Image restoration, which is a vibrant
field of research in the remote sensing community, is the task of recovering
the true unknown image from the degraded observed image. Each imaging sensor
induces unique noise types and artifacts into the observed image. This fact has
led to the expansion of restoration techniques in different paths according to
each sensor type. This review paper brings together the advances of image
restoration techniques with particular focuses on synthetic aperture radar and
hyperspectral images as the most active sub-fields of image restoration in the
remote sensing community. We, therefore, provide a comprehensive,
discipline-specific starting point for researchers at different levels (i.e.,
students, researchers, and senior researchers) willing to investigate the
vibrant topic of data restoration by supplying sufficient detail and
references. Additionally, this review paper accompanies a toolbox to provide a
platform to encourage interested students and researchers in the field to
further explore the restoration techniques and fast-forward the community. The
toolboxes are provided in https://github.com/ImageRestorationToolbox.Comment: This paper is under review in GRS
