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

Top-hat morphological operator subtracts result of morphological opening on the input image from the input image itself.

Applied to binary image, the filter allows to get all those object (their parts) which were removed by opening filter, but never restored.

The filter accepts 8 and 16 bpp grayscale images and 24 and 48 bpp color images for processing.

Sample usage:

// create filter
TopHat filter = new TopHat( );
// apply the filter
filter.Apply( image );

Initial image:
