Abstract

See full text

Median filtering of images is described using a directed search. In one example a method includes sliding a first window to a second position on an image to generate a second window where the first window overlaps the second window, determining a second histogram of pixel values by extracting a set of pixels from the first histogram and adding a set of pixels to the first histogram so that the second histogram has only pixels within the second window, determining a second median value of the pixel values using the second histogram by searching pixel values of the second histogram for the median starting at the median value of the first histogram, and repeating sliding the window determining a histogram and determining a median value until a complete median set of an area of interest of the image is determined.
