An Introduction to Variational Calculus: Applications in Image Processing

This textbook introduces variational calculus and regularization methods for inverse problems, seamlessly blending classical concepts with contemporary computational applications, particularly in the field of image processing.

The classical perspective draws upon foundational topics explored by pioneers such as Euler and Lagrange, establishing a solid theoretical groundwork. In recent decades, the advent of disciplines such as computer vision has expanded the horizons of variational calculus...
