split_skeleton_lines🔗
Short description🔗
split_skeleton_lines — Split lines represented by one pixel wide, non-branching lines.
Signature🔗
split_skeleton_lines( region SkeletonRegion, integer MaxDistance, out line.begin.y BeginRow, out line.begin.x BeginCol, out line.end.y EndRow, out line.end.x EndCol )
Description🔗
split_skeleton_lines splits lines represented by one pixel
wide, non-branching regions into shorter lines based on their
curvature. A line is split if the maximum distance of a point on
the line to the line segment connecting its end points is larger
than MaxDistance (split & merge algorithm). The start
and end points of the approximating line segments are returned in
BeginRow, BeginCol, EndRow, and
EndCol.
Attention🔗
The input regions must represent non-branching lines, that is single branches of the skeleton.
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 tuple level.
Parameters🔗
SkeletonRegion (input_object) region-array → object
Input lines (represented by 1 pixel wide, non-branching regions).
MaxDistance (input_control) integer → (integer)
Maximum distance of the line points to the line segment connecting both end points.
Default: 3
Suggested values: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
Value range: 1 ≤ MaxDistance ≤ 500 (lin)
Minimum increment: 1
Recommended increment: 1
BeginRow (output_control) line.begin.y-array → (integer)
Row coordinates of the start points of the output lines.
BeginCol (output_control) line.begin.x-array → (integer)
Column coordinates of the start points of the output lines.
EndRow (output_control) line.end.y-array → (integer)
Row coordinates of the end points of the output lines.
EndCol (output_control) line.end.x-array → (integer)
Column coordinates of the end points of the output lines.

threshold (ImaAmp, &RawEdges, 8, 255)\;
skeleton (RawEdges, &Skeleton)\;
junctions_skeleton (Skeleton, &EndPoints, &JuncPoints)\;
difference (Skeleton, JuncPoints, &SkelWithoutJunc)\;
connection (SkelWithoutJunc, &SingleBranches)\;

&EndCol)\;
Result🔗
split_skeleton_lines always returns the value 2 (H_MSG_TRUE). The
behavior in case of empty input (no regions given) can be set via
set_system('no_object_result',<Result>),
the behavior in case of an empty input region via
set_system('empty_region_result',<Result>),
and the behavior in case of an empty result region via
set_system('store_empty_region',<'true'/'false'>).
If necessary, an exception is raised.
