Artistic Edge and Corner Enhancing Smoothing Giuseppe Papari Nicolai Petkov Patrizio Campisi
ABSTRACT • 1) absence of texture details 2) increased sharpness of edges as compared to photographic images • generalizes both the well known Kuwahara filter and the more general class of filters known as VCFS. • VCFS: value and criterion filter structure Value-and-criterion filters have a `value' function (V) and a `criterion' function (C), each operating separately on the original image, and a `selection' operator (S) acting on the output of C. The selection operator chooses a location from the output of C, and the output of V at that point is the output of the overall filter.
OUTLINE • INTRODUCTION • KUWAHARA FILTER AND EXTENSIONS • PROPOSED OPERATOR • EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS
INTRODUCTION • Linear low-pass filtering strongly attenuates high-frequency components, not only noise, but also edges and corners, are smoothed out. • There has been a remarkable effort to find a nonlinear operator able to remove texture and noise, while preserving edges and corners. • ECPS: edge and corner preserving smoother • Ex : median filtering, morphological analysis, bilateral filtering
INTRODUCTION • current work: In a specific aspect of ECPSs, their ability to produce images that are visually similar to paintings. • algorithm makes use of: 1) a different set of weighting subregions for computing local averages 2) a different combination criterion which generalizes the minimum standard deviation rule and which does not suffer the above mentioned ill-posedness.
