	%X It has proved that nonlinear diffusion and bilateral
filtering (BF) have a closed connection. Early effort and contribution
are to find a generalized representation to link them by using adaptive
filtering. In this paper a new further relationship between nonlinear
diffusion and bilateral filtering is explored which pays more attention
to numerical calculus. We give a fresh idea that bilateral filtering can
be accelerated by multigrid (MG) scheme which likes the nonlinear
diffusion, and show that a bilateral filtering process with large kernel
size can be approximated by a nonlinear diffusion process based on
full multigrid (FMG) scheme.
