hysteresis_threshold — Perform a hysteresis threshold operation on an image.
hysteresis_threshold(Image : RegionHysteresis : Low, High, MaxLength : )
hysteresis_threshold performs a hysteresis threshold operation (introduced by Canny) on an image. All points in the input image Image having a gray value larger than or equal to High are immediately accepted (“secure” points). Conversely, all points with gray values less than Low are immediately rejected. “Potential” points with gray values between both thresholds are accepted if they are connected to “secure” points by a path of “potential” points having a length of at most MaxLength points. This means that “secure” points influence their surroundings (hysteresis).
For images of type byte, uint2, or int4 the lower threshold must be Low > 0.
Input image.
Segmented region.
Lower threshold for the gray values.
Default value: 30
Suggested values: 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100
Upper threshold for the gray values.
Default value: 60
Suggested values: 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120, 130
Restriction: High >= Low
Maximum length of a path of “potential” points to reach a “secure” point.
Default value: 10
Suggested values: 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 12, 14, 17, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 50
Typical range of values: 1 ≤ MaxLength
Minimum increment: 1
Recommended increment: 5
Restriction: MaxLength > 1
hysteresis_threshold returns 2 (H_MSG_TRUE) if all parameters are correct. The behavior with respect to the input images and output regions can be determined by setting the values of the flags 'no_object_result', 'empty_region_result', and 'store_empty_region' with set_system. If necessary, an exception is raised.
