void vigra::localMinima | ( | ... | ) |
Find local minima in an image or multi-dimensional array.
Note: the function is not yet implemented for arbitrary dimensional arrays, but see localMinima3D() for 3D.
By default, minima are defined as points which are not at the array border and whose value is lower than the value of all indirect neighbors (i.e. 8-neighbors in 2D, 26-neighbors in 3D, 3N-1 neighbors in N-D). The detected points will be marked with the default value 1 in the destination array.
The defaults can be overridden in various ways by providing LocalMinmaxOptions : you can switch to the direct neighborhood (i.e. 4-neighborhood in 2D, 6-neighborhood in 3D, 2*N neighborhood in N-D), allow minima at the border, discard minima where the function value is not below a given threshold, allow extended minima (i.e. minima that form minimal plateaus rather than isolated pixels -- note that this option is only supported for 2D images), and change the marker in the destination image. See usage examples below for details.
There are also variants of the localMinima() function where parameters are passed explicitly rather than via an option object. These versions of the function are deprecated, but will be kept for compatibility.
Declarations:
use arbitrary-dimensional arrays:
namespace vigra { template <unsigned int N, class T1, class C1, class T2, class C2> void localMinima(MultiArrayView<N, T1, C1> src, MultiArrayView<N, T2, C2> dest, LocalMinmaxOptions const & options = LocalMinmaxOptions()); }

namespace vigra { template <class SrcIterator, class SrcAccessor, class DestIterator, class DestAccessor> void localMinima(triple<SrcIterator, SrcIterator, SrcAccessor> src, pair<DestIterator, DestAccessor> dest, LocalMinmaxOptions const & options = LocalMinmaxOptions()); }

void vigra::localMaxima | ( | ... | ) |
Find local maxima in an image or multi-dimensional array.
Note: the function is not yet implemented for arbitrary dimensional arrays, but see localMaxima3D() for 3D.

void vigra::localMaxima3D | ( | ... | ) |
Find local maxima in a 3D multi array.
By default, maxima are defined as points which are not at the array border and whose value is higher than the value of all indirect neighbors. The detected points will be marked as specified. See localMaxima() for mor details.
void vigra::extendedLocalMinima | ( | ... | ) |
Find local minimal regions in an image or volume.
Note: the function is not yet implemented for arbitrary dimensional arrays, but see extendedLocalMinima3D() for 3D.
This function finds regions of uniform pixel value whose neighboring regions are all have smaller values (minimal plateaus of arbitrary size). By default, the pixels in a plateau have exactly identical values. By passing an EqualityFunctor
with tolerance, one can allow for plateaus that are not quite constant (this is often necessary with float pixel values). Pass vigra::EightNeighborCode or vigra::FourNeighborCode to determine the neighborhood where pixel values are compared.
Minimal regions are marked in the destination image with the given marker value (default is 1), all other destination pixels remain unchanged. SrcAccessor::value_type
must be equality-comparable and less-comparable. A pixel or region touching the image border will never be marked as minimum or minimal plateau. Use localMinima() with the appropriate options if you need that functionality. Likewise if you want to apply a threshold onl the fly. In fact, all functionality except for 'equality with tolerance' can be accessed via that function in a more readable way, so localMinima() should be preferred. The function uses accessors.
Declarations:
use 3-dimensional arrays:
namespace vigra { template <class T1, class C1, class T2, class C2, class Neighborhood> void extendedLocalMinima(MultiArrayView<3, T1, C1> src, MultiArrayView<3, T2, C2> dest, LocalMinmaxOptions const & options = LocalMinmaxOptions());
