Abstract

We study implementation issues for spatial convolution filters and their Fourier alternative, with the aim to optimize the accuracy of filter output. We focus on Gaussian scale-space filters and show that there exists a trade-off scale that subdivides the available scale range into two subintervals of equal length. Below this trade-off scale Fourier filtering yields more accurate results than spatial filtering; above it is the other way around. This should be contrasted with demands of computational speed, which show the opposite tenet
