3x3 Average filter in matlab
- by turingcomplete
I've written code to smooth an image using a 3x3 averaging filter, however the output is strange, it is almost all black. Here's my code.
function [filtered_img] = average_filter(noisy_img)
[m,n] = size(noisy_img);
filtered_img = zeros(m,n);
for i = 1:m-2
for j = 1:n-2
sum = 0;
for k = i:i+2
for l = j:j+2
sum = sum+noisy_img(k,l);
end
end
filtered_img(i+1,j+1) = sum/9.0;
end
end
end
I call the function as follows:
img=imread('img.bmp');
filtered = average_filter(img);
imshow(uint8(filtered));
I can't see anything wrong in the code logic so far, I'd appreciate it if someone can spot the problem.
