Approximation of functional depending on jumps by elliptic functional via t‐convergence

Abstract

Abstract We show how it is possible to approximate the Mumford‐Shah (see [29]) image segmentation functional magnified image by elliptic functionals defined on Sobolev spaces. The heuristic idea is to consider functionals 𝒢 h ( u, z ) with z ranging between 0 and 1 and related to the set K . The minimizing z h are near to 1 in a neighborhood of the set K , and far from the neighborhood they are very small. The neighborhood shrinks as h → + ∞. For a similar approach to the problem compare Kulkarni; see [25]. The approximation of 𝒢 h to 𝒢 takes place in a variational sense, the De Giorgi F‐convergence.
