Simultaneous Image Classification and Restoration Using a Variational Approach

Abstract

Herein, we present a variational model devoted to image classification coupled with an edge-preserving regularization process. In the last decade, the variational approach has proven its efficiency in the field of edge-preserving restoration. In this paper, we add a classification capability which contributes to provide images compound of homogeneous regions with regularized boundaries. The soundness of this model is based on the works developed on the phase transition theory in mechanics. The proposed algorithm is fast, easy to implement and efficient. We compare our results on both synthetic and satellite images with the ones obtained by a stochastic model using a Potts regularization.
