Scale-Space Filtering
@inproceedings{Witkin1983ScaleSpaceF, title={Scale-Space Filtering}, author={A. Witkin}, booktitle={IJCAI}, year={1983} }
The extrema in a signal and its first few derivatives provide a useful general-purpose qualitative description for many kinds of signals. A fundamental problem in computing such descriptions is scale: a derivative must be taken over some neighborhood, but there is seldom a principled basis for choosing its size. Scale-space filtering is a method that describes signals qualitatively, managing the ambiguity of scale in an organized and natural way. The signal is first expanded by convolution with… CONTINUE READING
