Hi - I am trying to create a version of the MCF example in DIP.

I am trying to follow the example data provided and the write-up. Is the following an equivalent formulation to what is presented in the write-up? Some of the notation in the write-up is ill-posed, so it's a bit hard to follow.

Thanks,
Matt
