============
Mean filters
============

This example compares the following mean filters of the rank filter package:

* **local mean**: all pixels belonging to the structuring element to compute
  average gray level.
* **percentile mean**: only use values between percentiles p0 and p1
  (here 10% and 90%).
* **bilateral mean**: only use pixels of the structuring element having a gray
  level situated inside g-s0 and g+s1 (here g-500 and g+500)

Percentile and usual mean give here similar results, these filters smooth the
complete image (background and details). Bilateral mean exhibits a high
filtering rate for continuous area (i.e. background) while higher image
frequencies remain untouched.
