gray_erosion (Operator)
gray_erosion
— Perform a gray value erosion on an image.
Signature
gray_erosion(Image, SE : ImageErosion : : )
Description
gray_erosion
applies a gray value erosion to the input image
Image
with the structuring element SE
. The image
type of the structuring element SE
must match the image
type of the input image Image
. The gray value erosion 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_se
).
The gray value erosion 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
Image
(input_object) (multichannel-)image(-array) →
object (byte / uint2 / real)
Input image.
SE
(input_object) singlechannelimage →
object (byte / uint2 / real)
Structuring element.
ImageErosion
(output_object) (multichannel-)image(-array) →
object (byte / uint2 / real)
Gray-eroded image.
Result
gray_erosion
returns 2 (
H_MSG_TRUE)
if the structuring element is not
the empty region. Otherwise, an exception is raised.
