Detailed Description

template<class TPixel, unsigned int VDimension, class TAllocator = NeighborhoodAllocator< TPixel >>
class itk::NeighborhoodOperator< TPixel, VDimension, TAllocator >

Virtual class that defines a common interface to all neighborhood operator subtypes.

A NeighborhoodOperator is a set of pixel values that can be applied to a Neighborhood to perform a user-defined operation (i.e. convolution kernel, morphological structuring element). A NeighborhoodOperator is itself a specialized Neighborhood, with functionality to generate its coefficients according to user-defined parameters. Because the operator is a subclass of Neighborhood, it is a valid operand in any of the operations defined on the Neighborhood object (convolution, inner product, etc.).

NeighborhoodOperator is a pure virtual object that must be subclassed to be used. A user's subclass must implement two methods:

(1) GenerateCoefficients – the algorithm that computes the scalar coefficients of the operator.

(2) Fill – the algorithm that places the scalar coefficients into the memory buffer of the operator (arranges them spatially in the neighborhood).

NeighborhoodOperator supports the concept of a "directional operator." A directional operator is defined in this context to be an operator that is applied along a single dimension. Examples of this type of operator are directional derivatives and the individual, directional components of separable processes such as Gaussian smoothing.

How a NeighborhoodOperator is applied to data is up to the user who defines it. One possible use of an operator would be to take its inner product with a neighborhood of values to produce a scalar result. This process effects convolution when applied to successive neighborhoods across a region of interest in an image.
