Fast, GPU friendly, antialiasing downsampling filter

Posted on March 7, 2022 by bartwronski

In this shorter post, I will describe a 2X downsampling filter that I propose as a “safe default” for GPU image processing. It’s been an omission on my side that I have not proposed any specific filter despite writing so … Continue reading →

Practical Gaussian filtering: Binomial filter and small sigma Gaussians

Posted on October 31, 2021 by bartwronski

Gaussian filters are the bread and butter of signal and image filtering. They are isotropic and radially symmetric, filter out high frequencies extremely well, and just look pleasant and smooth. In this post I will cover two of my favorite … Continue reading →

Processing aware image filtering: compensating for the upsampling

Posted on July 20, 2021 by bartwronski

This post summarizes some thoughts and experiments on “filtering aware image filtering” I’ve been doing for a while. The core idea is simple – if you have some “fixed” step at the end of the pipeline that you cannot control … Continue reading →

Bilinear texture filtering – artifacts, alternatives, and frequency domain analysis

Posted on April 14, 2020 by bartwronski

In this post we will look at one of the staples of real-time computer graphics – bilinear texture filtering. To catch your interest, I will start with focusing on something that is often referred to as “bilinear artifacts”, trapezoid/star-shaped artifact … Continue reading →
