Among the various nonlinear image filtering techniques, the Affine Morphological Scale Space (AMSS) model is characterized by especially appealing theoretical properties. In this paper we propose a Semi-Lagrangian scheme to approximate the AMSS model, prove convergence of its monotone version and apply it to some typical problem of image filtering.

Abstract
Among the various nonlinear image filtering techniques, the Affine Morphological Scale Space (AMSS) model is characterized by especially appealing theoretical properties. In this paper we propose a Semi-Lagrangian scheme to approximate the AMSS model, prove convergence of its monotone version and apply it to some typical problem of image filtering. We also carry out a comparison with the Level Lines Affine Shortening implementation of the AMSS model, as well as with other nonlinear filtering techniques, namely the Mean Curvature equation and the Perona-Malik model.
