To achieve consistent smoothing, we propose a novel optimization model making use of the redundancy of natural images, by defining a nonlocal concentration regularization term on the gradient. This nonlocal constraint is carefully combined with a gradientsparsity constraint, allowing details throughout the whole image to be removed automatically in a datadriven manner. As variations in gradient between similar patches can be suppressed effectively, the new model has excellent edge preserving, detail removal,and visual consistency properties. Comparisons with state-of-the-art smoothing methods demonstrate the effectiveness of the new method. Several applications,including edge manipulation, image abstraction,detail magnification, and image resizing, show the applicability of the new method.展开更多
