Detailed Description

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage>
class itk::GrayscaleConnectedClosingImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >

Enhance pixels associated with a dark object (identified by a seed pixel) where the dark object is surrounded by a brigher object.

GrayscaleConnectedClosingImagefilter is useful for enhancing dark objects that are surrounded by bright borders. This filter makes it easier to threshold the image and extract just the object of interest.

Geodesic morphology and the connected closing algorithm are described in Chapter 6 of Pierre Soille's book "Morphological Image Analysis: Principles and Applications", Second Edition, Springer, 2003.

Member Function Documentation

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> void itk::GrayscaleConnectedClosingImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::EnlargeOutputRequestedRegion (  DataObject *   )  [protected, virtual]

GrayscaleConnectedClosingImageFilter will produce the entire output. Reimplemented from itk::ProcessObject.

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> virtual void itk::GrayscaleConnectedClosingImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::FullyConnectedOff (   )  [virtual]

Set/Get whether the connected components are defined strictly by face connectivity or by face+edge+vertex connectivity. Default is FullyConnectedOff. For objects that are 1 pixel wide, use FullyConnectedOn.

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> virtual void itk::GrayscaleConnectedClosingImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::FullyConnectedOn (   )  [virtual]

Set/Get whether the connected components are defined strictly by face connectivity or by face+edge+vertex connectivity. Default is FullyConnectedOff. For objects that are 1 pixel wide, use FullyConnectedOn.

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> void itk::GrayscaleConnectedClosingImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::GenerateData (   )  [protected, virtual]

Single-threaded version of GenerateData. This filter delegates to GrayscaleGeodesicDilateImageFilter. Reimplemented from itk::ImageSource< TOutputImage >.

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> void itk::GrayscaleConnectedClosingImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::GenerateInputRequestedRegion (   )  [protected, virtual]

GrayscaleConnectedClosingImageFilter needs the entire input be available. Thus, it needs to provide an implementation of GenerateInputRequestedRegion(). Reimplemented from itk::ImageToImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >.

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> virtual const bool& itk::GrayscaleConnectedClosingImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::GetFullyConnected (   )  [virtual]
