parameter in (2) is a scale parameter tuning the model.
The data term H ( u,f ) is a fitting functional which is nonnegative with respect to u
for fixed f . To model Rician noise the form of H ( u,f ) has been deduced in [6] in the
context of weighed diffusion tensor MR images. The Rician likelihood term is of the
form:
u 2 + f 2

where σ is the standard deviation of the Rician noise of the data and I 0 is the modified

Due to the fact that the functional in (3) (hence in (6)) is not differentiable at the origin
we introduce the subdifferential of J ( u ) at a point u by

equation associated to the minimization problem (6). In fact the first order optimality
condition reads
