SIMD implementation of the bilateral filter
نویسنده
چکیده
Bilateral filter is a state-of-the-art method for noise reduction and color depth enhancement. The plausible visual result the filter produces makes it highly desired for video processing applications, yet, its high computational complexity makes a real-time implementation a challenging task. Presented here is a highly-parallel version of the bilateral filter for noise reduction in color video sequences, oriented to SIMD-type architecture.

A Parallel Implementation of the Color-Based Particle Filter for Object Tracking
In this paper, we present an implementation on an SIMD parallel processor of an object tracker based on a color-based particle filter. The main focus of our work is on the parallel computation of the particle weights, which is the major bottleneck in standard implementations of the color-based particle filter since it requires the knowledge of the histograms of the regions surrounding each hypo...
متن کاملEfficient Vectorization of the FIR Filter
The Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filter is one of the most important digital signal processing (DSP) kernels. It performs filtering of speech signals in modern voice coders such as the ETSI GSM EFR/AMR or ITU G.729, as well as in many other signal processing areas. Many contemporary digital signal processors as well as general-purpose microprocessors employ SIMD instructions to exploit the dat...
متن کاملA Review: Bilateral Filter for Real Time Image De-noising
Bilateral filtering has gained a high awareness level in medical image processing and non-destructive testing. Bilateral filtering method is that it allows for considering both the spatial locality and neighbouring points with similar amplitudes at the same time which make it can better preserving the image edges and textures than the conventional linear filtering algorithms. This paper illustr...
متن کاملA Comparison of Two SIMD Implementations of the 2D Discrete Wavelet Transform
There are generally two algorithms to traverse an image to implement the 2D Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT), namely Row-Column Wavelet Transform (RCWT) and Line-Based Wavelet Transform (LBWT). In the RCWT algorithm, the 2D DWT is divided into two 1D DWT: horizontal and vertical filtering. The horizontal filtering processes the rows of the original image and stores the wavelet coefficients in a...
متن کاملOptimizing Gaussian filtering of volumetric data using SSE
Gaussian filtering is a basic operation commonly used in numerous image and volume processing algorithms. It is, therefore, desirable to perform it as efficiently as possible. Over the last decade CPUs have been successfully extended with several SIMD (Single Instruction Multiple Data) extensions, such as MMX, 3DNow!, and SSE series. In this paper we introduce a new technique for Gaussian filte...
