Detailed Description

Algorithm for image 2d dilation.

Erosion and dilation are the two fundamental morphological operations.

These operations use a flat (with values in [0, 1]) structuring element combined to a Minkowski sum (in case of dilation) or subtraction (in case of erosion).

In dilation 2d case with an input image $ InImg $ and an input flat structuring element $ InSEXY $ , Minkowski sum is given by :

$OutImg = InImg \oplus InSEXY = \left \{ (x, y) / InSEXY_{(x, y)} \cap InImg \neq \varnothing \right \}$

with

$InSEXY_{(x, y)} = \left \{ (o_x + x, o_y + y) / (o_x, o_y) \in InSEXY \right \}$

In binary cases, this equation can be reexpressed as :

$OutImg[x, y] = (InImg \oplus InSEXY)[x, y] = \bigcup_{(o_x, o_y) \in InSEXY} InImg[(x+o_x, y+o_y)]$

In grayscale cases, this equation can be reexpressed as :

$OutImg[x, y] = (InImg \oplus InSEXY)[x, y] = \sup_{(o_x, o_y) \in InSEXY} InImg[(x+o_x, y+o_y)]$

Note: Behavior of this algorithm is specialized using specific morphological structuring elements (see 2d structuring elements for more informations about these shapes).
Please refer to Usage for examples of usage of different types of specific structuring elements during morphological operations.

Here is an example of a dilation 2d extraction operation applied to a binary input image with a circular structuring element with radius 3 :

Note: This algorithm is associated with a temporary working image ipsdk::imaproc::attr::OutOptWk1Img. This parameter is only used in special processing cases defined via ipsdk::imaproc::morpho::eSEProcessingCase enumerate. Such situation can be tested using ipsdk::imaproc::morpho::getSEProcessingCase function and associated image buffer type can be retrieved using ipsdk::imaproc::morpho::getSEWkImageBufferType. This working temporary image can be provided by user or will be automatically allocated when requested.
