Abstract
Decomposition by extrema is put into the context of linear vision
systems and scale-space. It is proved that discrete one-dimensional, M-
and N-sieves neither introduce new edges as the scale increases nor
create new extrema. They share this property with diffusion based
filters. They are robust and preserve edges of large scale
features
