  1. Gaussian Smoothing Gaussian Smoothing is the result of blurring an image by a Gaussian function. It is also known as Gaussian blur. • Course Name: Digital Image Processing Level(UG/PG): UG • Author(s) : Phani Swathi Chitta • Mentor: Prof. Saravanan Vijayakumaran *The contents in this ppt are licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 2.5 India license

  2. Learning Objectives After interacting with this Learning Object, the learner will be able to: • Explain how the smoothing of an image is done using a Gaussian filter

  3. Definitions of the components/Keywords: 1 • Smoothing filters are used for blurring and for noise reduction. • Blurring is used in preprocessing steps, such as removal of small details from an image prior to object extraction, and bridging of small gaps in lines or curves • Noise reduction can be accomplished by blurring • In edge detection, Gaussian smoothing is done prior to Laplacian to remove the effect of noise. • Gaussian smoothing is a special case of weighted smoothing, where the coefficients of the smoothing kernel are derived from a Gaussian distribution. • The 2D Gaussian smoothing filter is given by the equation • where σ is the variance of the mask • The amount of smoothing can be controlled by varying the values of the two standard deviations. 2 3 4 5

  4. Definitions of the components/Keywords: 1 • For a 3x3 mask, the values of x and y are taken from the below grid. 2 3 4 5
