  2. Outline • Spatial filters • Frequency domain filtering • Edge detection VC 17/18 - TP7 - Spatial Filters

  3. Topic: Spatial filters • Spatial filters • Frequency domain filtering • Edge detection VC 17/18 - TP7 - Spatial Filters

  4. Images are Discrete and Finite Convolution Fourier Transform Inverse Fourier Transform VC 17/18 - TP7 - Spatial Filters

  5. Simple way to process an image. Mask defines the processing function. Corresponds to a multiplication in frequency domain. Spatial Mask Mask Image Convolution – Mask ‘slides’ over the image VC 17/18 - TP7 - Spatial Filters

  6. Each mask position has weight w. The result of the operation for each pixel is given by: Example Mask Image =1*2+2*2+1*2+… =8+0-20 =-12 VC 17/18 - TP7 - Spatial Filters

  7. Definitions • Spatial filters • Use a mask (kernel) over an image region. • Work directly with pixels. • As opposed to: Frequency filters. • Advantages • Simple implementation: convolution with the kernel function. • Different masks offer a large variety of functionalities.

  8. For n=2, convolve pixel values with 2D images: 1 1 1 2 1 then (a) use or (b) use 1 1 1 2 2 2 1 1 1 2 2 4 2 2 1 2 1 1 1 Averaging Let’s think about averaging pixel values Which is faster? VC 17/18 - TP7 - Spatial Filters

  9. large Repeated averaging Gaussian smoothing Averaging The convolution kernel VC 17/18 - TP7 - Spatial Filters

  10. pixels Filter size …can be very large 2D Gaussian is separable! Gaussian Smoothing Gaussiankernel (truncate, if necessary) Use two 1DGaussianFilters! VC 17/18 - TP7 - Spatial Filters

  11. Gaussian Smoothing • A Gaussian kernel gives less weight to pixels further from the center of the window • This kernel is an approximation of a Gaussian function: VC 17/18 - TP7 - Spatial Filters

  13. Mean Filtering • We are degrading the energy of the high spatial frequencies of an image (low-pass filtering). • Makes the image ‘smoother’. • Used in noise reduction. • Can be implemented with spatial masks or in the frequency domain. VC 17/18 - TP7 - Spatial Filters

  17. Median filtering sort median Median Filter (a) • Smoothing is averaging (a) Blurs edges (b) Sensitive to outliers (b) • Sort values around the pixel • Select middle value (median) • Non-linear (Cannot be implemented with convolution) VC 17/18 - TP7 - Spatial Filters
