Operator Reference
access_channel (Operator)
access_channel — Access a channel of a multi-channel image.
Signature
access_channel(MultiChannelImage : Image : Channel : )
Description
The operator access_channel accesses a channel of the
(multi-channel) input image. The result is a one-channel image.
The definition domain of the input is adopted. The channels are
numbered from 1 to n. The number of channels can be determined via
the operator count_channels.
Execution Information
- Supports objects on compute devices.
- Multithreading type: reentrant (runs in parallel with non-exclusive operators).
- Multithreading scope: global (may be called from any thread).
- Processed without parallelization.
Parameters
MultiChannelImage (input_object) (multichannel-)image → object (byte / direction / cyclic / int1 / int2 / uint2 / int4 / int8 / real / complex / vector_field)
Multi-channel image.
Image (output_object) singlechannelimage → object (byte / direction / cyclic / int1 / int2 / uint2 / int4 / int8 / real / complex / vector_field)
One channel of MultiChannelImage.
Channel (input_control) channel → (integer)
Index of channel to be accessed.
Default: 1
Suggested values: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12
