Computer Vision and Image Processing
Variational methods are mathematical techniques that seek to find extrema (minimum or maximum values) of functionals, which are mappings from a set of functions to real numbers. These methods are often used in optimization problems, particularly in image processing and computer vision, where they help to model and solve complex problems by transforming them into a more manageable form through functional minimization.
congrats on reading the definition of Variational methods. now let's actually learn it.
