THRESHOLD DECOMPOSITION DRIVEN ADAPTIVE MORPHOLOGICAL FILTER FOR IMAGE SHARPENING

Tarek A. Mahmoud, Stephen Marshall

2007

Abstract

A new method is proposed to sharpen digital images. This sharpening method is based on edge detection and a class of morphological filtering. Motivated by the success of threshold decomposition, gradient-based operators, such as Prewitt operators, are used to detect the locations of the edges. A morphological filter is used to sharpen these detected edges. Experimental results demonstrate that the performance of these detected edge deblurring filters is superior to that of the traditional sharpening filter family.
