gray_erosion🔗
Short description🔗
gray_erosion — Perform a gray value erosion on an image.
Signature🔗
gray_erosion( image Image, image SE, out image 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🔗
Execution information
-
Multithreading type: reentrant (runs in parallel with non-exclusive operators).
-
Multithreading scope: global (may be called from any thread).
-
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.
