The watershed transformation is an efficient tool for segmenting grayscale images. An original approach to the watershed [1,9] consists in modifying the original image by lowering...
We extend the well-known BFGS quasi-Newton method and its memory-limited variant LBFGS to the optimization of nonsmooth convex objectives. This is done in a rigorous fashion by ge...
