    Bilateral Filtering

    The document introduces the bilateral filter, which has become ubiquitous in computational photography. It discusses how the bilateral filter can separate an image into large-scale structural features and small-scale texture features without introducing blurring or halos, unlike Gaussian blur. It provides examples of applications like photographic style transfer, tone mapping, and cartoon rendition. The course will cover the definition, parameters, applications, relationships to other filters, theoretical properties, and efficient implementation of the bilateral filter.

    A Gentle Introduction to Bilateral Filtering and its Applications

    Sylvain Paris Adobe Pierre Kornprobst INRIA Odysse Jack Tumblin Northwestern University Frdo Durand MIT CSAIL

    The bilateral filter is becoming ubiquitous in


    computational photography.

    Many applications with high quality results.

    Goal: Image Smoothing


    Split an image into:

    large-scale features, structure small-scale features, texture

    Nave Approach: Gaussian Blur


    BLUR HALOS

    input

    smoothed (structure, large scale)

    residual (texture, small scale)

    Gaussian Convolution

    Impact of Blur and Halos


    If the decomposition introduces blur and
    halos, the final result is corrupted.

    Sample manipulation: increasing texture (residual 3)

    Bilateral Filter: no Blur, no Halos

    input

    smoothed (structure, large scale)

    residual (texture, small scale)

    edge-preserving: Bilateral Filter

    input

    increasing texture with Gaussian convolution

    HALOS

    NO HALOS

    increasing texture with bilateral filter

    Many Other Options


    Bilateral filtering is not
    the only image smoothing filter
    Diffusion, wavelets, Bayesian

    We focus on bilateral filtering


    Suitable for strong smoothing used in
    computational photography

    Conceptually simple
