Different operators compute different finite-difference approximations of the
gradient. For example, the Scharr filter results in a better rotational
variance than other filters such as the Sobel filter [1]_ [2]_. The difference
between the two filters is illustrated below on an image that is the
discretization of a rotation-invariant continuous function. The discrepancy
between the two filters is stronger for regions of the image where the
direction of the gradient is close to diagonal, and for regions with high
spatial frequencies.
