26 Lagrange Multiplier One kind of optimization method to find the maxima/ minima of a function s.t. constraints subject to argmin f (x), x g(x) = c A Lagrange multiplier λ can be introduced to study the following function (Lagrange function) instead h(x,!) = f (x)+!!(g(x)" c)

27 Lagrange Multiplier If f(x*) is a minimum of the original constrained problem, then there exists such λ so that (x*, λ ) is the stationary point for the Lagrange function h(x,!) = f (x)+!!(g(x)" c) Stationary point:!h(x,!)!x x* = 0,!h(x,!)!!! = 0 Necessary condition. Not all stationary points are the local optima of the original problem

28 Lagrange Multiplier How to understand? h(x,!) = f (x)+!!(g(x)" c)

29 Lagrange Multiplier How to understand? h(x,!) = f (x)+!!(g(x)" c) If g(x)=c intersects with the contour line of f, it means the value of f will change if we keep moving along g(x) = c Only when g(x)=c meets f tangentially, we do not increase of decrease the value of f!f = "!!g,!f = [ #f #x 1, #f #x 2,... #f #x n ],!g = [ #g #x 1, #g #x 2,... #g #x n ], This is the same as introducing the Lagrange function, and solve! x,! h(x,!) = 0 Implies g(x)=c

30 Lagrange Multiplier- A Toy Example Find the minimum value of f (x, y) = 5x! 3y subject to x 2 + y 2 =136 Solution h(x,!) = 5x! 3y +! "(x 2 + y 2!136) #!h(x, y,!) %!x %!h(x, y,!) $ %!y %!h(x, y,!) % &!! = 5" 2!x = 0 = "3" 2!y = 0 = x 2 + y 2 "136 = 0 The constraints

38 Variational Methods in General Domains

39 Variational Approach in Computer Vision A unifying concept to deal with a variety of problems in computer vision, such as image segmentation, denoising, 3D reconstruction, etc Problem solution is the minimizer of an energy functional E, argmin u!v E(u) Images as functions: A greyscale image is a real-valued function A color image is a vector-valued function u :! " R,! # R 2 u :! " R 3,! # R 2

40 Example 1: Image De-noising Given image: f (x) = u(x)+ n(x) Denoised solution: u(x) Typical least-square restoration methods: Objective: argmin " (u # f ) 2 dx u(x)! under desirable constraints: e.g., smoothness, edge-preserving, etc.

41 Total Variation Image De-noising f (x) = u(x)+ n(x) Optimization problem: Objective: s.t. argmin u(x) #!u dx dy = # (u 2 " x + u 2 y ) dx dy " "! udx dy = "! 1 2 (u " f )2 dx dy f dx dy #! =! 2 White noise is zero- mean Prior informa-on on the standard devia-on of noise

42 TV-L 1 Model #!u dx dy = # (u 2 " x + u 2 y ) dx dy " Total variation of the image Consider L 1 norm instead of L 2 norm of the gradients The simplicity of L 2 models is now lost and complexity emerges
