Abstract (EN)

This article proposes a new algorithm to compute the projection on the set of images whose total variation is bounded by a constant. The projection is computed through a dual formulation that is solved by first order non-smooth optimization methods. This yields an iterative algorithm that computes iterative soft thresholding of the dual vector fields. This projection algorithm can then be used as a building block in a variety of applications such as solving inverse problems under a total variation constraint, or for texture synthesis. Numerical results show that our algorithm competes favorably with state-of-the-art TV projection methods to solve denoising, texture synthesis, inpainting and deconvolution problems.
