Abstract: We propose a new gradient-domain technique for processing registered EM image stacks to remove the inter-image discontinuities while preserving intra-image detail. To this end, we process the image stack by first performing anisotropic diffusion to smooth the data along the slice axis and then solving a screened-Poisson equation within each slice to re-introduce the detail. The final image stack is both continuous across the slice axis (facilitating the tracking of information between slices) and maintains sharp details within each slice (supporting automatic feature detection). To support this editing, we describe the implementation of the first multigrid solver designed for efficient gradient domain processing of large, out-of-core, voxel grids.
