A Wavelet-Laplace Variational Technique for Image Deconvolution and Inpainting

Abstract--We construct a new variational method for blind deconvolution of images and inpainting, motivated by recent PDE-based techniques involving the Ginzburg-Landau functional, but using more localized wavelet-based methods. We present results for both binary and grayscale images. Comparable speeds are achieved with better sharpness of edges in the reconstruction.
