Name

hamming_distance_normhamming_distance_normHammingDistanceNormHammingDistanceNormhamming_distance_norm — Hamming distance between two regions using normalization.

Signature

Description

The operator hamming_distance_normhamming_distance_normHammingDistanceNormHammingDistanceNormHammingDistanceNormhamming_distance_norm returns the hamming distance between two regions, i.e., the number of pixels of the regions which are different (DistanceDistanceDistanceDistancedistancedistance). Before calculating the difference the region in Regions1Regions1Regions1Regions1regions1regions_1 is normalized onto the regions in Regions2Regions2Regions2Regions2regions2regions_2. The result is the number of pixels contained in one region but not in the other: The parameter SimilaritySimilaritySimilaritySimilaritysimilaritysimilarity describes the similarity between the two regions based on the hamming distance DistanceDistanceDistanceDistancedistancedistance:

The following types of normalization are available:

'center'"center""center""center""center""center":

The region is moved so that both regions have the save center of gravity.

If both regions are empty SimilaritySimilaritySimilaritySimilaritysimilaritysimilarity is set to 0. The regions with the same index from both input parameters are always compared.

Attention

In both input parameters the same number of regions must be passed.

Execution Information

• Multithreading type: reentrant (runs in parallel with non-exclusive operators).
• Multithreading scope: global (may be called from any thread).
• Automatically parallelized on tuple level.

Parameters

Complexity

If F is the area of a region the mean runtime complexity is O(sqrt(F)).

Result

hamming_distance_norm returns the value 2 (H_MSG_TRUE) if the number of objects in both parameters is the same and is not 0. The behavior in case of empty input (no input objects available) is set via the operator set_system('no_object_result',<Result>)set_system("no_object_result",<Result>)SetSystem("no_object_result",<Result>)SetSystem("no_object_result",<Result>)SetSystem("no_object_result",<Result>)set_system("no_object_result",<Result>). The behavior in case of empty region (the region is the empty set) is set via set_system('empty_region_result',<Result>)set_system("empty_region_result",<Result>)SetSystem("empty_region_result",<Result>)SetSystem("empty_region_result",<Result>)SetSystem("empty_region_result",<Result>)set_system("empty_region_result",<Result>). If necessary an exception is raised.
