Profile

Description

Profile is a discrete approximation of a continuous real function, or may represent output of a measurement. It is used for example in analysis of image edges (1D Edge Detection) and in analysis of entire sequences of distances between two Path-represented objects.

In FabImage Studio a profile is basically a sequence of Real values, which are supposed to be samples taken from equal intervals of space or time. Infinite/NaN values inside of a Profile can cause filters to compute incorrect results and thus such values should be used with caution.
