Detailed Description

Convolution filter.

Library: ilvbmpflt

This bitmap filter lets you apply a matrix convolution to an image. A convolution combines pixels in the input image with neighboring pixels to produce a resulting image. A wide variety of imaging operations can be achieved through convolutions, including blurring, edge detection, sharpening, embossing, and beveling. A matrix convolution is based on an n-by-m matrix (the convolution kernel) that describes how a given pixel value in the input image is combined width its neighboring pixel values to produce a resulting pixel value.

To illustrate, suppose you have an input image that is 5 by 5 pixels, whose color values are as follows:

  0   20   40  235  235
100  120  140  235  235
200  220  240  235  255
225  225  255  255  255
225  225  255  255  255

and you define a 3-by-3 convolution kernel as follows:

 1  2  3
 4  5  6
 7  8  9

Let's focus on the pixel at the second row and second column of the source image (source pixel value is 120). The resulting pixel value will be:

(1 * 0 + 2 * 20 + 3 * 40 + 
4 * 100 + 5 * 120 + 6 * 140 +
7 * 200 + 8 * 220 + 9 * 240) / (1 + 2 + 3 +4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9)

By default the divisor is the sum of the kernel coefficients but can be specified. A bias value can be added after computing the value. An edge mode can be specified for border values. The edge mode can be one of:

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

IlvConvolutionFilter::IlvConvolutionFilter ( IlvBitmapDataKernel kernel = 0,
IlFloat  divisor = 0,
IlFloat  bias = 0.0 
)

Constructor.

Initializes a new instance of the class IlvConvolutionFilter. The default operator is a 3x3 identity kernel.

IlvConvolutionFilter::~IlvConvolutionFilter ( )

Destructor.

The destructor releases all the memory used by the instance.

Member Function Documentation

IlFloat IlvConvolutionFilter::getBias ( ) const

Returns the bias.

Returns
The bias.
IlFloat IlvConvolutionFilter::getDivisor ( ) const

Returns the divisor.

Returns
The divisor.
IlvConvolutionFilter::EdgeMode IlvConvolutionFilter::getEdgeMode ( ) const

Returns the edge mode.

Returns
The edge mode.
IlvBitmapDataKernel* IlvConvolutionFilter::getKernel ( ) const

Returns the kernel.

Returns
The kernel.
void IlvConvolutionFilter::setBias ( IlFloat  bias)

Sets the bias.

Parameters
biasThe new bias.
void IlvConvolutionFilter::setDivisor ( IlFloat  divisor)

Sets the divisor.

Parameters
divisorThe new divisor.
void IlvConvolutionFilter::setEdgeMode ( IlvConvolutionFilter::EdgeMode  mode)

Sets the edge mode.

Parameters
modeThe new edge mode.
void IlvConvolutionFilter::setKernel ( IlvBitmapDataKernel kernel)

Sets the kernel.
