sub_image ( ImageMinuend, ImageSubtrahend : ImageSub : Mult, Add : )

Subtract two images.

The operator sub_image subtracts two images. The gray values (g1,g2)

                g' := (g1 - g2) * Mult + Add


Parameters

ImageMinuend (input_object)
(multichannel-)image(-array) -> object : byte / int1 / int2 / uint2 / int4 / real / direction / cyclic / complex
Minuend(s).

ImageSubtrahend (input_object)
(multichannel-)image(-array) -> object : byte / int1 / int2 / uint2 / int4 / real / direction / cyclic / complex
Subtrahend(s).

ImageSub (output_object)
(multichannel-)image(-array) -> object : byte / int1 / int2 / uint2 / int4 / real / direction / cyclic / complex
Result image(s) by the subtraction.

Mult (input_control)
number -> real / integer
Correction factor.
Default value: 1.0
Suggested values: 0.0, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0
Typical range of values: -255.0 <= Mult <= 255.0
Minimum increment: 0.001
Recommended increment: 0.1

Add (input_control)
number -> real / integer
Correction value.
Default value: 128.0
Suggested values: 0.0, 128.0, 256.0
Typical range of values: -512.0 <= Add <= 512.0
Minimum increment: 0.01
Recommended increment: 1.0


Example
read_image(Image0,"fabrik")
disp_image(Image0,WindowHandle)
read_image(Image1,"Affe")
disp_image(Image1,WindowHandle)
sub_image(Image0,Image1,Result,2.0,10.0)
disp_image(Result,WindowHandle)

Result

The operator sub_image returns the value 2 (H_MSG_TRUE) if the parameters are correct. The behavior in case of empty input (no input images available) is set via the operator set_system(::'no_object_result',<Result>:) If necessary an exception handling is raised.


Parallelization Information

sub_image is reentrant and automatically parallelized (on tuple level, channel level, domain level).


Possible Successors

dual_threshold
