Abstract :
In this paper the minimization of a functional defined in the context of biomedical image processing is obtained through a cellular nonlinear network (CNN). The CNN performs noise removal in grey-level biomedical images. The performances of the circuit at behavioural level are shown in a case study concerning retinal images.
