Detailed Description

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

Applies an version of the median filter optimized for binary images.

This filter was contributed by Bjorn Hanch Sollie after identifying that the generic Median filter performed unecessary operations when the input image is binary.

This filter Computes an image where a given pixel is the median value of the pixels in a neighborhood about the corresponding input pixel. For the case of binary images the median can be obtained by simply conting the neigbors that are foreground.

A median filter is one of the family of nonlinear filters. It is used to smooth an image without being biased by outliers or shot noise.

Member Function Documentation

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> virtual void itk::BinaryMedianImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::GenerateInputRequestedRegion (    )  throw (InvalidRequestedRegionError) [virtual]

BinaryMedianImageFilter needs a larger input requested region than the output requested region. As such, BinaryMedianImageFilter needs to provide an implementation for GenerateInputRequestedRegion() in order to inform the pipeline execution model. See also: ImageToImageFilter::GenerateInputRequestedRegion() Reimplemented from itk::ImageToImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >.

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> virtual const char* itk::BinaryMedianImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::GetClassName (    )  const [virtual]

Run-time type information (and related methods). Reimplemented from itk::ImageToImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >.

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> itk::BinaryMedianImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::itkGetConstReferenceMacro (  ForegroundValue   , InputPixelType    )

Get the value associated with the Foreground (or the object) on the binary input image and the Background .

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> itk::BinaryMedianImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::itkGetConstReferenceMacro (  BackgroundValue   , InputPixelType    )

Get the value associated with the Foreground (or the object) on the binary input image and the Background .

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> itk::BinaryMedianImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::itkGetConstReferenceMacro (  Radius   , InputSizeType    )

Get the radius of the neighborhood used to compute the median

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> itk::BinaryMedianImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::itkStaticConstMacro (  OutputImageDimension   , unsigned    int, TOutputImage::ImageDimension    )

Extract dimension from input and output image. Reimplemented from itk::ImageToImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >.

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> itk::BinaryMedianImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::itkStaticConstMacro (  InputImageDimension   , unsigned    int, TInputImage::ImageDimension    )

Extract dimension from input and output image. Reimplemented from itk::ImageToImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >.

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> Pointer itk::BinaryMedianImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::New (    )  [static]

Method for creation through the object factory. Reimplemented from itk::ImageToImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >.

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> void itk::BinaryMedianImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::PrintSelf (  std::ostream &    os, Indent    indent )  const [protected, virtual]

Methods invoked by Print() to print information about the object including superclasses. Typically not called by the user (use Print() instead) but used in the hierarchical print process to combine the output of several classes. Reimplemented from itk::ImageToImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >.

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> virtual void itk::BinaryMedianImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::SetBackgroundValue (  InputPixelType    _arg )  [virtual]

Set the value associated with the Foreground (or the object) on the binary input image and the Background .

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> virtual void itk::BinaryMedianImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::SetForegroundValue (  InputPixelType    _arg )  [virtual]

Set the value associated with the Foreground (or the object) on the binary input image and the Background .

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> virtual void itk::BinaryMedianImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::SetRadius (  InputSizeType    _arg )  [virtual]

Set the radius of the neighborhood used to compute the median.

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> void itk::BinaryMedianImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::ThreadedGenerateData (  const OutputImageRegionType &    outputRegionForThread, int    threadId )  [protected, virtual]

BinaryMedianImageFilter can be implemented as a multithreaded filter. Therefore, this implementation provides a ThreadedGenerateData() routine which is called for each processing thread. The output image data is allocated automatically by the superclass prior to calling ThreadedGenerateData(). ThreadedGenerateData can only write to the portion of the output image specified by the parameter "outputRegionForThread" See also: ImageToImageFilter::ThreadedGenerateData(), ImageToImageFilter::GenerateData() Reimplemented from itk::ImageSource< TOutputImage >.
