Stabilized inverse diffusion equations and segmentation of vector-valued images
We further investigate and generalize the stabilized inverse diffusion equations (SIDEs), which were introduced and analyzed by Pollak, Willsky and Krim (see Technical Report LIDSP-2368, Laboratory for Information and Decision Systems, MIT, 1996, and Scale-Space Theory in Computer Vision, Springer, 1997). We demonstrate their robustness and applicability to the segmentation of color images.
