Abstract :
In this paper, we propose a so-called directional smoothing method based mean curvature flow. The selection of the diffusion direction is based on the descent of some energy functional. We show that the directional diffusion flow is volume-preserving. Based on the local directional diffusion flow, we present a feature-preserving smoothing method. Finally, we provide a series of examples to graphically demonstrate the quality of our results.
