Detailed Description

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

grayscale reconstruction by erosion of an image

Reconstruction by erosion operates on a "marker" image and a "mask" image, and is defined as the erosion of the marker image with respect to the mask image iterated until stability.

The marker image must be greater than or equal to the mask image (on a pixel by pixel basis).

Geodesic morphology is described in Chapter 6.2 of Pierre Soille's book "Morphological Image Analysis: Principles and Applications", Second Edition, Springer, 2003.

Algorithm implemented in this filter is based on algorithm described by Kevin Robinson and Paul F. Whelan in "Efficient Morphological Reconstruction: A Downhill Filter", Pattern Recognition Letters, Volume 25, Issue 15, November 2004, Pages 1759-1767.

Good description and applications can be found in "Morphological Grayscale Reconstruction in Image Analysis: Applications and Efficient Algorithms", Luc Vincent, IEEE Transactions on image processing, Vol. 2, April 1993.

Member Function Documentation

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

This filter will enlarge the output requested region to produce all of the output if the filter is configured to run to convergence. See also: ProcessObject::EnlargeOutputRequestedRegion() Reimplemented from itk::ProcessObject.

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

Single-threaded version of GenerateData. This version is used when the filter is configured to run to convergence. This method may delegate to the multithreaded version if the filter is configured to run a single iteration. Otherwise, it will delegate to a separate instance to run each iteration until the filter converges. Reimplemented from itk::ImageSource< TOutputImage >.

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

ReconstructionByErosionImageFilter needs to request enough of the marker image to account for the elementary structuring element. The mask image does not need to be padded. Depending on whether the filter is configured to run a single iteration or until convergence, this method may request all of the marker and mask image be provided. Reimplemented from itk::ImageToImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >.

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> virtual const bool& itk::ReconstructionByErosionImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::GetFullyConnected (   )  [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> const MarkerImageType* itk::ReconstructionByErosionImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::GetMarkerImage (   )
