DilateImage_Mask

Replaces each pixel with the maximum of pixels within a small rectangular kernel.

Name	Type	Description
inImage	Image	Input image
inRoi	Region *	Range of outImage pixels to be computed
inKernel	MorphologyKernel	Selects a predefined kernel
outImage	Image	Output image

The operation replaces each pixel with the brightest pixel in its neighbourhood, thus shrinking dark areas in inImage and expanding the bright ones.

This filter is a simplified version of DilateImage. It is limited to only a few symmetric kernels and supports only basic ROI handling.

Please note that on some machines the filter execution time can be greater than execution time of the corresponding DilateImage filter.

DilateImage_Mask performed on the sample image with inKernel = Box3x3.

This operation is optimized for SSE2 technology for pixels of types: UINT8, SINT16, UINT16.

This operation is optimized for AVX2 technology for pixels of types: UINT8, SINT16, UINT16.

This operation supports automatic parallelization for multicore and multiprocessor systems.

This filter can throw an exception to report error. Read how to deal with errors in Error Handling.

List of possible exceptions:

Error type	Description
DomainError	Region exceeds an input image in DilateImage_Mask.

This filter is available on Basic Complexity Level.

This filter is member of DilateImage filter group.
