| Summary: | This book is devoted to the study of variational methods in imaging. The presentation is mathematically rigorous and covers a detailed treatment of the approach from an inverse problems point of view. Key Features: - Introduces variational methods with motivation from the deterministic, geometric, and stochastic point of view - Bridges the gap between regularization theory in image analysis and in inverse problems - Presents case examples in imaging to illustrate the use of variational methods e.g. denoising, thermoacoustics, computerized tomography - Discusses link between non-convex calculus of variations, morphological analysis, and level set methods - Analyses variational methods containing classical analysis of variational methods, modern analysis such as G-norm properties, and non-convex calculus of variations - Uses numerical examples to enhance the theory This book is geared towards graduate students and researchers in applied mathematics. It can serve as a main text for graduate courses in image processing and inverse problems or as a supplemental text for courses on regularization. Researchers and computer scientists in the area of imaging science will also find this book useful
