The formalism is based on regularizers penalizing the singular values of the Jacobian of the field. Specifically, we rely on the nuclear norm. Our method is invariant with respect to fundamental transformations and can be efficiently solved. We conduct numerical experiments on several phantom data and report improved performance compared to existing vectorial extensions of total variation and curl-divergence regularizations. Finally, we apply our reconstruction method to an experimentally-acquired phase-contrast MRI recording for enhancing the data visualization.4D MRIdenoisingflow fieldsflow MRIJacobianPCMRIphase-constrast MRIregularizationSchatten normsvector fieldsvectorial total variationImproved Variational Denoising of Flow Fields with Application to Phase-Contrast MRI Datatext::journal::journal article::research article
