Higher-Order Total Directional Variation: Imaging Applications
(1812.05023)Abstract
We introduce a class of higher-order anisotropic total variation regularisers, which are defined for possibly inhomogeneous, smooth elliptic anisotropies, that extends the Total Generalized Variation (TGV) regulariser and its variants. We propose a primal-dual hybrid gradient approach to approximate numerically the associated gradient flow. This choice of regularisers allows to preserve and enhance intrinsic anisotropic features in images. This is illustrated on various examples from different imaging applications: image denoising, wavelet-based image zooming, and reconstruction of surfaces from scattered height measurements.
