'**SUMMARY**
Performs Total Variation Denoising, this filter tries to minimize the
total-variation of the image.
see : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_variation_denoising
**Parameters**
* *gray* - Boolean value which identifies the colorspace of
the input image. If set to True, filter uses gray scale values,
otherwise colorspace is used.
* *weight* - Denoising weight, it controls the extent of denoising.
* *eps* - Stopping criteria for the algorithm. If the relative difference
of the cost function becomes less than this value, the algorithm stops.
* *max_iter* - Determines the maximum number of iterations the algorithm
goes through for optimizing.
* *resize* - Parameter to scale up/down the image. If set to
1 filter is applied on the original image. This parameter is
mostly to speed up the filter.
**NOTE**
This function requires Scikit-image library to be installed!
To install scikit-image library run::
sudo pip install -U scikit-image
