Difference of Gaussians Edge Enhancement Algorithm

Difference of Gaussians Edge Enhancement Algorithm - Java Tutorial

A majority of the edge enhancement algorithms commonly employed in digital image processing often produce the unwanted side effect of increasing random noise in the image. Because it removes high-frequency spatial detail that can include random noise, the difference of gaussians algorithm is useful for enhancing edges in noisy digital images. This interactive tutorial explores application of the difference of gaussians algorithm to images captured in the microscope.
