Localization
How the elements of a filter are “balanced” is evaluated next. In particular, how
close to the center of a filter are the element values spread is investigated here. If the
element values gather close to the center, the filter focuses on the information close
to the center.
Localization on square lattices is defined as

mn d m , n
m , n P sqr
Loc sqr

are the elements of the gradient filters derived in the
x and y directions, respectively, and d m , n is distance from the center of the filter.

The resultant localizations are listed in Table 2 with resultant SNR ,andtheyare
plotted in Figure 5. It is clear that the smaller the filter is, the better its localization
is. At the same time, the larger the filter is, the better the SNR is. Accordingly, there
