Only the following inImage pixel formats are supported: 1xuint8
Description
The filter applies non-linear mapping to image pixel values so that pixel intensities of the resulting image are evenly distributed in range from 0 to 255.
The operation computes the cumulative histogram \(C\) of inImage and the image size \(N\). Then the result is computed as follows:
\[ \begin{aligned} outImage[i,j] &= C[ inImage[i,j] ] \times \frac{255}{N} \end{aligned} \]Examples
