Extension Methods
  NameDescription
Public Extension MethodHasMethod
Checks whether an object implements a method with the given name.
(Defined by ExtensionMethods.)
Public Extension MethodIsEqual
Compares two objects for equality, performing an elementwise comparison if the elements are vectors or matrices.
(Defined by Matrix.)
Public Extension MethodTo(Type)Overloaded.
Converts an object into another type, irrespective of whether the conversion can be done at compile time or not. This can be used to convert generic types to numeric types during runtime.
(Defined by ExtensionMethods.)
Public Extension MethodToTOverloaded.
Converts an object into another type, irrespective of whether the conversion can be done at compile time or not. This can be used to convert generic types to numeric types during runtime.

Remarks

The filter performs image thresholding calculating threshold automatically using simple image statistics method. For each pixel:

  • two gradients are calculated - ex = |I(x + 1, y) - I(x - 1, y)| and |I(x, y + 1) - I(x, y - 1)|;
  • weight is calculated as maximum of two gradients;
  • sum of weights is updated (weightTotal += weight);
  • sum of weighted pixel values is updated (total += weight * I(x, y)).
The result threshold is calculated as sum of weighted pixel values divided by sum of weight.

The filter accepts 8 bpp grayscale images for processing.

Sample usage:

// create filter
SISThreshold filter = new SISThreshold( );
// apply the filter
filter.ApplyInPlace( image );

Initial image:

Result image (calculated threshold is 127):
