Abstract :
We present a linear smoothing operator which has low-pass characteristics similar to a Butterworth filter and limited spatial extent similar to a Gaussian. The smoothing operator also has closed forms in the spatial and frequency domains which facilitate analysis and implementation. A formula is derived that allows us to explicitly control shrinkage
