Detailed Description

template<class TImage>
class itk::GradientNDAnisotropicDiffusionFunction< TImage >

This class implements an N-dimensional version of the classic Perona-Malik anisotropic diffusion equation for scalar-valued images. See itkAnisotropicDiffusionFunction for an overview of the anisotropic diffusion framework and equation.

The conductance term for this implementation is chosen as a function of the gradient magnitude of the image at each point, reducing the strength of diffusion at edge pixels.

\[C(\mathbf{x}) = e^{-(\frac{\parallel \nabla U(\mathbf{x}) \parallel}{K})^2}\]

.

The numerical implementation of this equation is similar to that described in the Perona-Malik paper below, but uses a more robust technique for gradient magnitude estimation and has been generalized to N-dimensions.
