3.5. Mean Curvature Blur

3.5.1. 概観

Regularize geometry at a speed proportional to the local mean curvature value: this filter uses the mean curvature algorithm to blur the image preserving edges.

The Mean Curvature algorithm is described on Wikipedia.

Iterations

Increasing Iterations increases blur.
