Filter isotropic_diffusion

  • Smoothing is an important preprocessing step for many vision tasks
  • Gaussian filtering is one of the best smoothing methods
  • HALCON 7.1 offers a new implementation of the Gaussian smoothing with the following features:
    • When filtering with ROIs only pixels inside the ROI are used instead of using the pixels outside the ROI for border treatment
    • For huge filter masks the execution time is constant, i.e., it does not increase
