Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We are very happy to announce that The Workshop on Mathematical Methods for Image Processing and Understanding (https://sites.google.com/view/mmipu-2023/home-page) will be held in conjunction with the 2023 International Conference on Computational Science and its Applications (ICCSA 2023) in Athens, Greece, on July 3‒6, 2023.

The Workshop is focused on the analysis of mathematical methods to solve the theoretical and computational problems that are typical in image processing and understanding. The themes and topics include but are not limited to:

  • Theoretical and numerical approximation for image processing;
  • Filter theory;
  • Space color definition;
  • Regularization techniques;
  • MAP estimation for image processing;
  • Image reconstruction;
  • Image enhancement;
  • Image rescaling;
  • Image segmentation;
  • Image registration;
  • Image clustering;
  • Image compactification;
  • Image demosaicing;
  • Medical imaging;
  • Digital tomography;
  • Mathematical methods for virtual document restoration;
  • Pattern recognition;
  • Stereoscopic and optical flow.

Moreover, applications of digital image processing in different fields will be also considered.

We would like to invite authors to submit an extended version of their conference papers for this Special Issue. All papers accepted in this Special Issue will meet the usual standards for publication in Mathematics.

Manuscripts should be submitted online at mdpi.longhoe.net by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs).

In recent decades, a remarkable amount of research has been carried out regarding fast solvers for large linear systems resulting from various discretizations of fractional differential equations (FDEs). In the current work, we focus on multigrid methods for a Riesz–Space FDE whose theoretical convergence analysis of such multigrid methods is currently limited in the relevant literature to the two-grid method. Here we provide a detailed theoretical convergence study in the multilevel setting. Moreover, we discuss its use combined with a band approximation and we compare the result with both τ and circulant preconditionings. The numerical tests include 2D problems as well as the extension to the case of a Riesz–FDE with variable coefficients. Finally, we investigate the use of a Riesz–Space FDE in a variational model for image deblurring, comparing the performance of specific preconditioning strategies. Full article
