monotony — Calculating the monotony operation.
monotony(Image : ImageMonotony : : )
The operator monotony calculates the monotony operator. Thereby the points which are strictly smaller than the current grayvalue will be counted in the 8 neighborhood. This number will be entered into the output imaged.
If there is a strict maximum, the value 8 is returned; in case of a minimum or a plateau, the value 0 will be returned. A ridge or a slope will return the corresponding intermediate values.
The monotony operator is often used to prepare matching operations as it is invariant with regard to lightness modifications.
Input image.
Result of the monotony operator.
