High Boost Filtering
High Boost Filtering
The high-boost filter is a simple sharpening operator in signal and image processing.
It is used for amplifying high frequency components of signals and images. The amplification is achieved via a procedure which subtracts a smoothed version of the media data from the original one.
In image processing, we can sharpen edges of a image through the amplification and obtain a more clear image. The high boost filtering is expressed in equation form as follows:
Where A is a constant
Original Image
Give radio buttons to select the mask and the masks are given below Give a slider to select any one value of sigma ranging from 1 to 2
Step 1:
Mask 1,Sigma =1
Instruction for the animator The first fig. should appear and then when the slider points at sigma, the second fig. should be shown The text in DT should appear in parallel to the figures
Text to be displayed in the working area (DT) The original image The resulting image after high boost filtering is applied The filter mask used for filtering is mask 1 and sigma=1
Step 2:
Instruction for the Text to be displayed in the working animator area (DT) The first fig. should The original image appear and then when The resulting image after high boost the slider points at filtering is applied sigma, the second fig. The filter mask used for filtering is mask should be shown 1 and sigma=1.2 The text in DT should appear in parallel to the figures
Step 3:
Instruction for the animator The first fig. should appear and then when the slider points at sigma, the second fig. should be shown The text in DT should appear in parallel to the figures
Text to be displayed in the working area (DT) The original image The resulting image after high boost filtering is applied The filter mask used for filtering is mask 1 and sigma=1.8
Step 4:
Mask 2, Sigma 1
Instruction for the animator The first fig. should appear and then when the slider points at sigma, the second fig. should be shown The text in DT should appear in parallel to the figures
Text to be displayed in the working area (DT) The original image The resulting image after high boost filtering is applied The filter mask used for filtering is mask 2 and sigma=1
Step 5:
Instruction for the animator The first fig. should appear and then when the slider points at sigma, the second fig. should be shown The text in DT should appear in parallel to the figures
Text to be displayed in the working area (DT) The original image The resulting image after high boost filtering is applied The filter mask used for filtering is mask 2 and sigma=1.2
Step 6:
The first fig. should The original image appear and then when The resulting image after high boost the slider points at filtering is applied sigma, the second fig. The filter mask used for filtering is mask should be shown 2 and sigma=1.5 The text in DT should appear in parallel to the figures
Step 7:
Instruction for the animator The first fig. should appear and then when the slider points at sigma, the second fig. should be shown The text in DT should appear in parallel to the figures
Text to be displayed in the working area (DT) The original image The resulting image after high boost filtering is applied The filter mask used for filtering is mask 2 and sigma=1.8
Step 8:
Mask 2, Sigma 2
Instruction for the animator The first fig. should appear and then when the slider points at sigma, the second fig. should be shown The text in DT should appear in parallel to the figures
Text to be displayed in the working area (DT) The original image The resulting image after high boost filtering is applied The filter mask used for filtering is mask 2 and sigma=2
Blurring is used in preprocessing steps, such as removal of small details from an image prior to object extraction, and bridging of small gaps in lines or curves Noise reduction can be accomplished by blurring

Order-Statistics Filters
Order-statistics filters are nonlinear spatial filters whose response is based on ordering (ranking) the pixels contained in the image area encompassed by the filter, and then replacing the value of the center pixel with the value determined by the ranking result. Best-known median filter
