halfQuadraticFilter edit page

haldQuadraticFilter uses the techniques elaborated half-quadratic minimization on manifolds to denoise EBSD data. For further details of the algorithm see: R. Bergmann, R. H. Chan, R. Hielscher, J. Persch, G. Steidl Restoration of Manifold-Valued Images by Half-Quadratic Minimization. Preprint, ArXiv #1505.07029. (2015)

With the l1 norms switched on the filter keeps sharp steps, so a subgrain boundary survives the smoothing instead of being blurred away.

Syntax

F = halfQuadraticFilter
F.alpha = 0.5;
ebsd = smooth(ebsd,F)

Class Properties

alpha regularization parameter, larger means smoother
l1DataFit use the l1 norm for data fitting
l1TV use the l1 norm for regularization
iterMax maximum number of iterations
tol stopping criterion of the gradient descent
eps l1 relaxation parameter
threshold threshold for subgrain boundaries
isHex is the map on a hexagonal grid
