Does the 'gaussian' filter in MATLAB convolve the image with the Gaussian kernel? Also, how do you choose the parameters hsize (size of filter) and sigma? What do you base it on?
Gaussian smoothing filters are commonly used to reduce noise. Read an image into the workspace. I = imread('cameraman. tif'); Filter the image with isotropic Gaussian smoothing kernels of increasing standard deviations.
A Gaussian Filter is a low pass filter used for reducing noise (high frequency components) and blurring regions of an image. The filter is implemented as an Odd sized Symmetric Kernel (DIP version of a Matrix) which is passed through each pixel of the Region of Interest to get the desired effect.
In electronics and signal processing mainly in digital signal processing, a Gaussian filter is a filter whose impulse response is a Gaussian function (or an approximation to it, since a true Gaussian response would have infinite impulse response).
You can create and evaluate a fismf object that implements the gaussmf membership function. mf = fismf("gaussmf",P); Y = evalmf(mf,X); Here, X , P , and Y correspond to the x , params , and y arguments of gaussmf , respectively.
You first create the filter with fspecial and then convolve the image with the filter using imfilter (which works on multidimensional images as in the example).
You specify sigma
and hsize
in fspecial
.
%%# Read an image I = imread('peppers.png'); %# Create the gaussian filter with hsize = [5 5] and sigma = 2 G = fspecial('gaussian',[5 5],2); %# Filter it Ig = imfilter(I,G,'same'); %# Display imshow(Ig)
