About the Lab

Professor Yoon Mo Jung's research lab specializes in mathematical modeling, optimization, and numerical analysis for inverse problems and image reconstruction, with a strong focus on developing efficient and robust algorithms for real-time applications. The lab's main research directions include total variation-based regularization, non-convex optimization, and advanced image segmentation techniques, particularly in medical imaging and electrical impedance tomography (EIT). The group also explores dynamic systems and control, especially in the context of multi-agent systems with Markov jump parameters and adaptive event-triggered mechanisms. Their work bridges applied mathematics, computational science, and engineering applications, emphasizing theoretical rigor and practical efficiency.

Multiphase Image Segmentation via Modica–Mortola Phase Transition
Yoon Mo Jung, Sung Ha Kang, Jianhong Shen
SJR Q1SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics

We propose a novel multiphase segmentation model built upon the celebrated phase transition model of Modica and Mortola in material sciences and a properly synchronized fitting term that complements it. The proposed sine-sinc model outputs a single multiphase distribution from which each individual segment or phase can be easily extracted. Theoretical analysis is developed for the $\Gamma$-convergence behavior of the proposed model and the existence of its minimizers. Since the model is not quad

Impedance Imaging With First-Order TV Regularization
Yoon Mo Jung, Sangwoon Yun
SJR Q1IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging

EIT problem is a typical inverse problem with serious ill-posedness. In general, regularization techniques are necessary for such ill-posed inverse problems. To overcome ill-posedness, the total variation (TV) regularization is widely used and it is also successfully applied to EIT. For realtime monitoring, a fast and robust image reconstruction algorithm is required. By exploiting recent advances in optimization, we propose a first-order TV algorithm for EIT, which simply consists of matrix-vec

Non-convex TV denoising corrupted by impulse noise

SJR Q2Inverse Problems and ImagingOA

We propose a non-convex type total variation model for impulse noise removal by incorporating TV and the quasi-norm $\ell_q $, $0 < q < 1 $. Since the proposed model is non-convex and non-smooth, an iteratively reweighted algorithm is adapted and combined with a linearized ADMM. The convergence of the proposed algorithm is established and numerical results are given to illustrate the validity and efficiency of the proposed model.
