Abstract

This paper is dedicated to a brain magnetic resonance images regularization method, preserving grey/white matter edges using rotating smoothing filters. After a preprocessing, the originality of this approach resides in the mixing of ideas coming both from pixel classification which determines roughly if a pixel belongs to a homogenous region or an edge and an anisotropic edge detector which computes two precise diffusion directions. These directions are used by an anisotropic diffusion scheme which is accurately controlled near edges and corners. Comparing our results with existing algorithms allows us to validate the robustness of our method.
