Abstract :
The minimization of the total variation has become a very popular tool for image denoising. In this paper we present an alternative approach of the total variation minimization problem. In the BV functional background we introduce a formulation using level sets and the Coarea formula. From this we deduce a practical algorithm for total variation minimization. Finally we present some experimental results
