Abstract
We consider the problem of decomposing an image into a cartoon part and
a textural part. The geometric and smoothly-varying component, referred
to as cartoon, is composed of object hues and boundaries. The texture is
an oscillatory component capturing details and noise. Variational models
form a general framework to obtain u + v image decompositions, where
cartoon and texture are forced into different functional spaces. The
TV-L1 model consists in a L1 data fidelity term and a Total Variation
(TV) regularization term. The L1 norm is particularly well suited for
the cartoon+texture decomposition since it better preserves geometric
features than the L2 norm. The TV regularization has become famous in
inverse problems because it enables to recover sharp variations.
However, the nondifferentiability of TV makes the underlying problems
challenging to solve. There exists a wide literature of variants and
numerical attempts to solve these optimization problems. In this paper,
we present an implementation of a primal dual algorithm proposed by
Antonin Chambolle and Thomas Pock applied to this image decomposition
problem with the TV-L1 model. A thorough experimental comparison is
performed with a recent filter pair proposed in IPOL for the
cartoon+texture decomposition.
