edgetaper() - Image Processing

J = edgetaper(I,PSF) blurs
the edges of the input image I using the point
spread function PSF. The size of the PSF cannot
exceed half of the image size in any dimension.The output image J is the weighted sum of
the original image I and its blurred version. The
weighting array, determined by the autocorrelation function of PSF,
makes J equal to I in its central
region, and equal to the blurred version of I near
the edges.The edgetaper function reduces the ringing
effect in image deblurring methods that use the discrete Fourier transform,
such as deconvwnr, deconvreg, and deconvlucy.

Syntax

J = edgetaper(I,PSF)

Example

Blur the Edges of an ImageOpen This Example
original = imread('cameraman.tif');
PSF = fspecial('gaussian',60,10);
edgesTapered = edgetaper(original,PSF);
figure, imshow(original,[]);
figure, imshow(edgesTapered,[]);
