摘要: Nonlinear anisotropic diffusion algorithms provide significant improvement in image enhancement as compared to linear filters. However, the excessive computational cost of solving nonlinear PDEs precludes their use real-time vision applications. We show that two orders magnitude speed is provided by a new filtering paradigm which an adaptively determined vector field specifies nonlocal application points for filter.
