Abstract Total variation based image restoration and reconstruction lead to a kind of minimization problem that turns out to be a nonlinear integro-differential equation of elliptic type. An effective linearization and. discretization method is essential for solving the problem. The fixed point iteration proposed by C. R. Vogel and M. E. Oman(1996) is an elegant scheme of linearization. For discretization of the problem, however, the reported methods mostly involve the skills in numerical solutions of differential equations that are not amiable for the image processing community. In this paper, a discretization method is presented that needs only con-
ventional technique for image processing. The method can simplify the implementation of the fixed point iteration scheme. The experimental results of image restoration and image denoising are used to justify the method.
