Overview of anisotropic filtering methods based on partial differential equations for electronic speckle pattern interferometry

Abstract

In this paper, we first present the general description for partial differential equations (PDEs) based image processing methods, including the basic idea, the main advantages and disadvantages, a few representative PDE models, and the derivation of PDE models. Then we review our contributions on PDE-based anisotropic filtering methods for electronic speckle pattern interferometry, including the second-order, fourth-order, and coupled nonoriented PDE filtering models and the second-order and coupled nonlinear oriented PDE filtering models. We have summarized the features of each model.
