Among the various nonlinear image filtering techniques, the Affine Morphological Scale Space (AMSS) model is characterized by especially appealing theoretical properties. In this paper we propose a Semi-Lagrangian scheme to approximate the AMSS model, prove convergence of its monotone version and apply it to some typical problem of image filtering. We also carry out a comparison with the Level Lines Affine Shortening implementation of the AMSS model, as well as with other nonlinear filtering techniques, namely the Mean Curvature equation and the Perona-Malik model.

Abstract
Among the various nonlinear image filtering techniques, the Affine Morphological Scale Space (AMSS) model is characterized by especially appealing theoretical properties. In this paper we propose a Semi-Lagrangian scheme to approximate the AMSS model, prove convergence of its monotone version and apply it to some typical problem of image filtering. We also carry out a comparison with the Level Lines Affine Shortening implementation of the AMSS model, as well as with other nonlinear filtering techniques, namely the Mean Curvature equation and the Perona-Malik model.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
