SmoothImage_Gauss

Basic

Module: FoundationLite

Smooths an image using a gaussian kernel.

Applications

Removal of gaussian noise from images.
Name Type Range Description
Input value inImage Image Input image
Input value inRoi Region* Range of output pixels to be computed
Input value inStdDevX Real 0.0 - Horizontal smoothing standard deviation
Input value inStdDevY Real* 0.0 - Vertical smoothing standard deviation
Input value inKernelRelativeSize Real 0.0 - 3.0 A multiple of the standard deviation determining the size of the kernel
Output value outImage Image Output image
Diagnostic input diagKernelRadiusX Integer Horizontal radius of Gaussian kernel being used
Diagnostic input diagKernelRadiusY Integer Vertical radius of Gaussian kernel being used

Hints

  • To make smoothing stronger, increase the inStdDevX and - optionally - inStdDevY.
  • Increase inKernelRelativeSize to achieve better quality at the cost of a bit longer execution time.
  • For small kernels consider switching to SmoothImage_Gauss_Mask to achieve the highest performance.

Examples

Description of usage of this filter can be found in examples and tutorial: Fertilizer Granulation, HMI Configuration Page, Image Modification Using the HMI, Using HMI multipanel control.

SmoothImage_Gauss performed on a sample image with inStdDevX = 3.0.
