    "We consider two different variational models of transport networks, the so-called branched transport problem and the urban planning problem. Based on a novel relation to Mumford-Shah image inpainting and techniques developed in that field, we show for a two-dimensional situation that both highly non-convex network optimisation tasks can be transformed into a minorising convex variational problem."
