Abstract

In this paper, we propose a new algorithm for extracting a non smooth shape from its noisy observation. The key ideal is to project the noisy shape onto a set of orthogonal subspaces at different resolutions, and construct scale space representation gleaned from the locally smoothed shape. Using the curvature we proceed to filter the high resolution scale subspace by projecting it onto the scale which is in turn used for the reconstruction. Inspired by the conjugate mirror filter and the wavelet decomposition synergy, we propose a curvature based filter operating at different scales and with minimal knowledge about the noise statistics.
