smooth_contours_xldsmooth_contours_xldSmoothContoursXldSmoothContoursXldsmooth_contours_xld (Operator)
Name
smooth_contours_xldsmooth_contours_xldSmoothContoursXldSmoothContoursXldsmooth_contours_xld — Smooth an XLD contour.
Signature
Description
smooth_contours_xldsmooth_contours_xldSmoothContoursXldSmoothContoursXldsmooth_contours_xld smooths the input XLD contours
ContoursContoursContourscontourscontours and returns the smoothed contours in
SmoothedContoursSmoothedContoursSmoothedContourssmoothedContourssmoothed_contours. The smoothing is done by projecting
the contours' points onto a local regression line (i.e., a
least-squares approximating line), which is computed from
NumRegrPointsNumRegrPointsNumRegrPointsnumRegrPointsnum_regr_points on each side of the current contour point.
This operator should be called, for example, before contours are
scaled.
Execution Information
- Multithreading type: reentrant (runs in parallel with non-exclusive operators).
- Multithreading scope: global (may be called from any thread).
- Processed without parallelization.
