Bilateral Filter

Edge-preserving and noise-reducing smoothing filter for images.

You are now following this Submission

This preserves sharp edges by systematically looping through each pixel and adjusting weights to the adjacent pixels accordingly.
% bif = bilateral filter
% im = input image
% sigd = domain parameter for spatial kernel
% sigr = range parmeter for intensity kernel
% n = noise intensity
% out = output image
