The generalization of approach presented in [1] is proposed and applied in the field of image segmentation. So called regularised Riemannian mean curvature flow equation is studied and the construction of the numerical scheme based on the finite volume method approach is explained. The principle of the level set, for the first time given in [2], is used. We mention two different approaches for the approximation of the nonlinear smoothing term in the equation and known theoretical results for both of them. We provide the numerical tests for both schemes. It the last section we discuss obtained results and propose possibilities for the future research

We derive the basic scheme and its iterative improvement. For both schemes, several numerical experiments using examples where the exact solution is known are presented. Then the numerical errors and experimental order of convergence of the proposed schemes is studied.

Authors deal with the approach of numerical methods, particularly the Finite volume method. The boundary conditions used are of Robin type, and they include rigid piston on one side of the domain, and changing boundary conditions on other sides. Further the numerical solution of one case is compared with the analytical one.

The use of linear approximation schemes for solving these problems from both the theoretical and numerical point of view has been extensively studied. A linear approximation scheme based on the so-called nonlinear Chernoff formula with constant relaxation parameter μ was studied in [1], [12], [14], [8]. Another linear approximation scheme was investigated in [5], [6], [7], [3]. There the authors used an approximation scheme of the type

The scheme is based on finite volume space discretization and semi-implicit time discretization [9], it is unconditionally stable and very weakly diffusive. Such properties are important in image filtering where they guarantee correct reconstruction of shapes deteriorated by high level of noise in stable and computationally efficient way. We compare the filtering capabilities of our new scheme with the standard explicit finite difference approximation of the mean curvature level set equation [15] and show appropriate behavior of the new method.

The new scheme is based on the classical diamond-cell finite volume method and on the idea of inflow-implicit/outflow-explicit (or forward-backward diffusion) splitting accompanied by a suitable stabilization. Comparisons with known exact solution and numerical experiments investigating stability of the proposed method in case of highly anisotropic diffusion tensor are discussed.

The first, CVS scheme, is based on co-volume strategy and nonlinear terms, given by absolute value of gradient, are evaluated on pixel sides using splitted diamond-cell approach [11, 7, 8, 2, 6]. In the second, EHM scheme, the absolute values of gradients are evlauated inside the pixels by the Stokes formula and the scheme is obtained by imposing the continuity of fluxes on pixel sides [4]. Results concerning numerical analysis of the schemes are presented and a comparison of these numerical approximations on several representative examples are discussed including performance in image filtering. On testing examples with exact solutions the schemes behave similarly in solution error, but the EHM scheme has higher precision in gradient error. Finite volume numerical schemes also perform better in the filtering of a strong salt & pepper noise as the results obtained using finite difference method [10].
