An adaptive total variational despeckling model based on gray level indicator frame

For the characteristics of the degraded images with multiplicative noise, the gray level indicators for constructing adaptive total variation are proposed. Based on the new regularization term, we propose the new convex adaptive variational model. Then, considering the existence, uniqueness and comparison principle of the minimizer of the functional. The finite difference method with rescaling technique and the primal-dual method with adaptive step size are used to solve the minimization problem. The paper ends with a report on numerical tests for the denoising of images subject to multiplicative noise, the comparison with other methods is provided as well.
