TotalVariationFilter

TotalVariationFilter[image]
iteratively reduces noise while preserving edges in image.
TotalVariationFilter
assumes a regularization parameter value param.
MORE INFORMATION
  • TotalVariationFilter works with arbitrary grayscale and multichannel images, as well as real arrays of any rank.
  • In TotalVariationFilter, the value of regularization parameter param is typically in the range 0 to 1.
  • The type of noise to be removed can be specified by setting a Method option. Possible settings include , , and .
  • By default, Gaussian noise is assumed. For removing salt-and-pepper noise or impulse noise, the Laplacian noise model gives best results. Poisson noise typically describes low-light images as well as various types of multiplicative noise.
