    Abstract:

    An efficient method for postprocessing of the directional field is presented. Utilizing the coherence of the squared gradients, our algorithm firstly clears off the background/noise block in the directional field and then smoothes the directional field. Through this method, we can get accurate directional field. The efficiency of this method is illustrated by experiment.
