Abstract

In this paper we present a new explicit numerical scheme to approximate the solution of the linear diffusion filtering. This scheme is fast, stable, easy to program, applicable to arbitrary dimensions, and preserves the discontinuities of the objects. Experimental results support the efficiency of the proposed approach for the multi-scale detection of edges in greyscale, and color images.
