What’s a Filter? • A filter is a matrix of weights centered on a specific pixel in an image and used to produce a weighted average as follows. • The center weight is multiplied with the pixel, the other weights are multiplied with corresponding neighbor pixels. • The results are added and divided by the sum of the weights (or, avoid the divide by using normalized weights; i.e., pre-divided).

What’s a Filter? • This filtering operation applied to each pixel of an image is called a convolution (if the filter is symmetrical) or correlation otherwise. • More complex filters, that can use fancier functions, exist as well.
How filters Get Used: Let Compiler Loop Unroll If the sampler can be indexed via image sized texture coordinates (otherwise, *pixelSize). float3 fillterResult= float4 (0.0, 0.0, 0.0);for (inti = -1; i <= 1; i++) { for (int j = -1; j <= 1; j++) {fillterResult+= sampler (uv.xy + float2 (i,j) ).xyz *filterWeight [i,j]; }} Filter result is the answer: assuming normalized weights
How filters Get Used: Unroll Loop Yourself If the sampler can be indexed via image sized texture coordinates (otherwise, *pixelSize). float3 fillterResult= sampler (uv.xy + float2 (-1,-1)).xyz * filterWeight [-1,-1] + sampler (uv.xy + float2 (-1, 0)).xyz * filterWeight [-1, 0] + sampler (uv.xy + float2 (-1,+1)).xyz * filterWeight [-1,+1] + sampler (uv.xy + float2 ( 0,-1)).xyz * filterWeight [ 0,-1] + sampler (uv.xy + float2 ( 0, 0)).xyz * filterWeight [ 0, 0] + sampler (uv.xy + float2 ( 0,+1)).xyz * filterWeight [ 0,+1] + sampler (uv.xy + float2 (+1,-1)).xyz * filterWeight [+1,-1] + sampler (uv.xy + float2 (+1, 0)).xyz * filterWeight [+1, 0] + sampler (uv.xy + float2 (+1,+1)).xyz * filterWeight [+1,+1]; Filter result is the answer: assuming normalized weights
A Few Observations • An odd size filter looks cleaner but even size works too (consistently applying right and down, for example)... • sum of normalized weights 1 brighter image • sum of normalized weights 1 darker image [x, y+1] Weight 0.25 [x+1, y+1] Weight 0.25 right and up for OpenGL right and down for DirectX [x, y] [x+1, y] Weight 0.25 Weight 0.25
A Few Observations • Indexing off the end is can be handled with • 0 weight • automatically via a clamping sampler • Filtered results are sometimes clamped to the bounds of the application; e.g., 0 and 1 for color.

Engineering Terminology • Relates the filter capability to what happens in the frequency domain (fourier transforms) • Low-pass filter lets low frequencies through which eliminates speckles and sharp discontinuities. • High-pass filter lets high frequencies through, an edge detector.
Source:StephenChenneyUniversity of Wisconsin Box Filter • Box filters by averaging neighbors (so it smooths) • In frequency domain, keeps low frequencies and attenuates high frequencies (so it’s a low-pass filter) Spatial domain: box frequency domain: sinc
Bartlett Filter • Triangle shaped filter in spatial domain (attenuates high frequencies less than a gaussian filter). • In frequency domain, product of two box filters (so attenuates high frequencies more than a box). spatial domain: triangle frequency domain: sinc2 Source:Stephen Chenney University of Wisconsin
Conclusion • A filter is a matrix of weights centered on a specific pixel in an image and used to produce some sort of weighted average. • A host of different effects result from weighting the filters differently...
