Total generalized variation of the normal vector field and applications to mesh denoising

We propose a novel formulation for the second-order total generalized variation (TGV) of the normal vector on an oriented, triangular mesh embedded in ℝ3. The normal vector is considered as a manifold-valued function, taking values on the unit sphere. Our formulation extends previous discrete TGV mo...

Descrizione
Riassunto:We propose a novel formulation for the second-order total generalized variation (TGV) of the normal vector on an oriented, triangular mesh embedded in ℝ3. The normal vector is considered as a manifold-valued function, taking values on the unit sphere. Our formulation extends previous discrete TGV models for piecewise constant scalar data that utilize a Raviart–Thomas function space. To extend this formulation to the manifold setting, a tailor-made tangential Raviart–Thomas-type finite element space is constructed in this work. The new regularizer is compared to existing methods in mesh denoising experiments.
