A variational model for image segmentation consists of a data term and a regularization term. Usually, the data term is chosen as squared norm, and the regularization term is determined by the prior assumption. In this paper, we present a novel model in the framework of MAP (maximum a posteriori). A new iteratively reweighted norm is used in the data term, which shares the advantages of and mixed norm. An edge weighting function is addressed in the regularization term, which enforces the ability to reduce the outlier effects and preserve edges. An improved region-based graph cuts algorithm is proposed to solve this model efficiently. Numerical experiments show our method can get better segmentation results, especially in terms of removing outliers and preserving edges.
