Zusammenfassung:An adaptive smoothing filter derived from a clustering method, based on information theory and statistical mechanics is presented. The filter has been applied to the enhancement of images obtained by ultrasound reflection mode tomography using radial image processing (URTURIP). The filter significantly smooths out the noise and preserves edges at a desired level of description with the use of two scale parameters.
