Non-Overlapping Domain Decomposition Methods For Dual Total Variation Based Image Denoising

In this paper non-overlapping domain decomposition methods for the pre-dual total variation minimization problem are introduced. Both parallel and sequential approaches are proposed for these methods for which convergence to a minimizer of the original problem is established. The associated subproblems are solved by a semi-smooth Newton method. Several numerical experiments are presented, which show the successful application of the sequential and parallel algorithm for image denoising.
