Description

gray_dilationgray_dilationGrayDilationGrayDilationgray_dilation applies a gray value dilation to the input image ImageImageImageimageimage with the structuring element SESESESEse. The image type of the structuring element SESESESEse must match the image type of the input image ImageImageImageimageimage. The gray value dilation of an image i with a structuring element s at the pixel position x is defined as: Here, S is the domain of the structuring element s (see read_gray_seread_gray_seReadGraySeReadGraySeread_gray_se).

The gray value dilation is particularly fast for flat structuring elements, i.e., structuring elements with a constant gray level within their domain.

Execution Information

  • Multithreading type: reentrant (runs in parallel with non-exclusive operators).
  • Multithreading scope: global (may be called from any thread).
  • Automatically parallelized on tuple level.
  • Automatically parallelized on channel level.
  • Automatically parallelized on internal data level.

Parameters

ImageImageImageimageimage (input_object)  (multichannel-)image(-array) objectHImageHObjectHObjectHobject (byte / uint2 / real)

Input image.

SESESESEse (input_object)  singlechannelimage objectHImageHObjectHObjectHobject (byte / uint2 / real)

Structuring element.

ImageDilationImageDilationImageDilationimageDilationimage_dilation (output_object)  (multichannel-)image(-array) objectHImageHObjectHObjectHobject * (byte / uint2 / real)

Gray-dilated image.

Result

gray_dilationgray_dilationGrayDilationGrayDilationgray_dilation returns 2 ( H_MSG_TRUE) if the structuring element is not the empty region. Otherwise, an exception is raised.
