Anisotropic Diffusion for Depth Estimation in Shape from Focus Systems [PDF]
Shape from focus is a monocular method that uses the camera’s focus as the primary indicator for depth estimation. The initial depth map is usually improved by penalizing the L2 regularizer as a smoothness constraint, which tends to smoothen the ...

Image classification using multiscale information fusion based on saliency driven nonlinear diffusion filtering [PDF]
, 2014 In this paper, we propose saliency driven image multiscale nonlinear diffusion filtering. The resulting scale space in general preserves or even enhances semantically important structures such as edges, lines, or flow-like structures in the foreground ...
