Well-posedness study of a non-linear hyperbolic-parabolic coupled system applied to image speckle reduction

Abstract: In this article, we consider a non-linear hyperbolic-parabolic coupled system based on telegraph diffusion framework applied to image despeckling. A separate equation is used to calculate the edge variable, which improves the quality of the despeckled images. A well-posedness result of the proposed coupled system is settled via Schauder's fixed point theorem. Numerical experiments are reported to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed model, with recently developed models, over a set of gray level test images contaminated by speckle noise.
