Detailed Description

Base class for computing IIR convolution with an approximation of a Gaussian kernel.

\[ \frac{ 1 }{ \sigma \sqrt{ 2 \pi } } \exp{ \left( - \frac{x^2}{ 2 \sigma^2 } \right) } \]

RecursiveGaussianImageFilter is the base class for recursive filters that approximate convolution with the Gaussian kernel. This class implements the recursive filtering method proposed by R.Deriche in IEEE-PAMI Vol.12, No.1, January 1990, pp 78-87, "Fast Algorithms for Low-Level Vision"

Details of the implementation are described in the technical report: R. Deriche, "Recursively Implementing The Gaussian and Its Derivatives", INRIA, 1993, ftp://ftp.inria.fr/INRIA/tech-reports/RR/RR-1893.ps.gz

Further improvements of the algorithm are described in: G. Farnebäck & C.-F. Westin, "Improving Deriche-style Recursive Gaussian Filters". J Math Imaging Vis 26, 293–299 (2006). https://doi.org/10.1007/s10851-006-8464-z

As compared to itk::DiscreteGaussianImageFilter , this filter tends to be faster for large kernels, and it can take the derivative of the blurred image in one step. Also, note that we have itk::RecursiveGaussianImageFilter::SetSigma() , but itk::DiscreteGaussianImageFilter::SetVariance() .

See also: DiscreteGaussianImageFilter; itk::simple::RecursiveGaussian for the procedural interface; itk::RecursiveGaussianImageFilter for the Doxygen on the original ITK class.

◆ SetNormalizeAcrossScale()

Self& itk::simple::RecursiveGaussianImageFilter::SetNormalizeAcrossScale ( bool NormalizeAcrossScale )

inline

     Set/Get the flag for normalizing the gaussian over scale-space.

This flag enables the analysis of the differential shape of features independent of their size ( both pixels and physical size ). Following the notation of Tony Lindeberg:

Let

\[ L(x; t) = g(x; t) \ast f(x) \]

be the scale-space representation of image

\[ f(x) \]

where

\[ g(x; t) = \frac{1}{ \sqrt{ 2 \pi t} } \exp{ \left( -\frac{x^2}{ 2 t } \right) } \]

is the Gaussian function and

\[\ast\]

denotes convolution. This is a change from above with

\[ t = \sigma^2 \]

.

Then the normalized derivative operator for normalized coordinates across scale is:

\[ \partial_\xi = \sqrt{t} \partial_x \]

The resulting scaling factor is

\[ \sigma^N \]

where N is the order of the derivative.

When this flag is ON the filter will be normalized in such a way that the values of derivatives are not biased by the size of the object. That is to say the maximum value a feature reaches across scale is independent of the scale of the object.

For analyzing an image across scale-space you want to enable this flag. It is disabled by default.

Note: Not all scale space axioms are satisfied by this filter, some are only approximated. Particularly, at fine scales ( say less than 1 pixel ) other methods such as a discrete Gaussian kernel should be considered.

◆ SetOrder()

Self& itk::simple::RecursiveGaussianImageFilter::SetOrder ( OrderType Order )

inline

     Set/Get the Order of the Gaussian to convolve with.

SecondOrder is equivalent to convolving with the second derivative of a Gaussian.

Definition at line 119 of file sitkRecursiveGaussianImageFilter.h.

◆ SetSigma()

Self& itk::simple::RecursiveGaussianImageFilter::SetSigma ( double Sigma )

inline

Set/Get the Sigma, measured in world coordinates, of the Gaussian kernel. The default is 1.0. An exception will be generated if the Sigma value is less than or equal to zero.
