Partial Differential Equations and Computer Vision

The objectives are to present an outline of the recent development of the application of Partial Differential Equations to Image Processing. These last 10 years have seen a new field emerging from a need for better mathematical formalism of problems in Image Processing. It was introduced at first for an invariant image analysis through different scales, and also used for adaptative image smoothing, image sequence analysis, active contours and surfaces, curve evolution. The school is intended to beginners as well confirmed scientists in both the Mathematician Community and the Computer Science Community.
