AVL.DilateImage_Mask(AvlNet.Image, AvlNet.Region, AvlNet.MorphologyKernel, AvlNet.Image)

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

Namespace:	AvlNet
Assembly:	AVL.NET.dll


public static void DilateImage_Mask(
	AvlNet.Image inImage,
	AvlNet.Region inRoi,
	AvlNet.MorphologyKernel inKernel,
	out AvlNet.Image outImage
)

inImage: Type: AvlNet.Image
Input image
inRoi: Type: AvlNet.Region
Range of outImage pixels to be computed, or null.
inKernel: Type: AvlNet.MorphologyKernel
Selects a predefined kernel
outImage: Type: AvlNet.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 type: UINT8.

This operation supports automatic parallelization for multicore and multiprocessor systems.

Hardware acceleration settings may be manipulated with Settings class.
