The operator create_ncc_modelcreate_ncc_modelCreateNccModelcreate_ncc_modelCreateNccModelCreateNccModel prepares a template, which is
passed in the image TemplateTemplateTemplateTemplateTemplatetemplate, as an NCC model used for
matching using the normalized cross correlation (NCC). The ROI of
the model is passed as the domain of TemplateTemplateTemplateTemplateTemplatetemplate.
The model is generated using multiple image pyramid levels at
multiple rotations on each level and is stored in memory. The
output parameter ModelIDModelIDModelIDModelIDModelIDmodelID is a handle for this model, which
is used in subsequent calls to find_ncc_modelfind_ncc_modelFindNccModelfind_ncc_modelFindNccModelFindNccModel.
The number of pyramid levels is determined with the parameter
NumLevelsNumLevelsNumLevelsNumLevelsNumLevelsnumLevels. It should be chosen as large as possible
because by this the time necessary to find the object is
significantly reduced. On the other hand, NumLevelsNumLevelsNumLevelsNumLevelsNumLevelsnumLevels must
be chosen such that the model is still recognizable and contains a
sufficient number of points (at least eight) on the highest pyramid
level. This can be checked using the domains of the output images
of gen_gauss_pyramidgen_gauss_pyramidGenGaussPyramidgen_gauss_pyramidGenGaussPyramidGenGaussPyramid. If not enough model points are
generated, the number of pyramid levels is reduced internally until
enough model points are found on the highest pyramid level. If this
procedure would lead to a model with no pyramid levels, i.e., if the
number of model points is already too small on the lowest pyramid
level, create_ncc_modelcreate_ncc_modelCreateNccModelcreate_ncc_modelCreateNccModelCreateNccModel returns an error message. If
NumLevelsNumLevelsNumLevelsNumLevelsNumLevelsnumLevels is set to 'auto'"auto""auto""auto""auto""auto" or 0,
create_ncc_modelcreate_ncc_modelCreateNccModelcreate_ncc_modelCreateNccModelCreateNccModel determines the number of pyramid levels
automatically. The automatically computed number of pyramid levels
can be queried using get_ncc_model_paramsget_ncc_model_paramsGetNccModelParamsget_ncc_model_paramsGetNccModelParamsGetNccModelParams. In rare cases,
it might happen that create_ncc_modelcreate_ncc_modelCreateNccModelcreate_ncc_modelCreateNccModelCreateNccModel determines a value for
the number of pyramid levels that is too large or too small. If the
number of pyramid levels is chosen too large, the model may not be
recognized in the image or it may be necessary to select very low
parameters for MinScore in find_ncc_modelfind_ncc_modelFindNccModelfind_ncc_modelFindNccModelFindNccModel in order
to find the model. If the number of pyramid levels is chosen too
small, the time required to find the model in find_ncc_modelfind_ncc_modelFindNccModelfind_ncc_modelFindNccModelFindNccModel
may increase. In these cases, the number of pyramid levels should
be selected by inspecting the output of gen_gauss_pyramidgen_gauss_pyramidGenGaussPyramidgen_gauss_pyramidGenGaussPyramidGenGaussPyramid.
Here, Mode = 'constant'"constant""constant""constant""constant""constant" and Scale =
0.5 should be used.
The parameters AngleStartAngleStartAngleStartAngleStartAngleStartangleStart and AngleExtentAngleExtentAngleExtentAngleExtentAngleExtentangleExtent
determine the range of possible rotations, in which the model can
occur in the image. Note that the model can only be found in this
range of angles by find_ncc_modelfind_ncc_modelFindNccModelfind_ncc_modelFindNccModelFindNccModel. The parameter
AngleStepAngleStepAngleStepAngleStepAngleStepangleStep determines the step length within the selected
range of angles. Hence, if subpixel accuracy is not specified in
find_ncc_modelfind_ncc_modelFindNccModelfind_ncc_modelFindNccModelFindNccModel, this parameter specifies the accuracy that
is achievable for the angles in find_ncc_modelfind_ncc_modelFindNccModelfind_ncc_modelFindNccModelFindNccModel.
AngleStepAngleStepAngleStepAngleStepAngleStepangleStep should be chosen based on the size of the object.
Smaller models do not possess many different discrete rotations in
the image, and hence AngleStepAngleStepAngleStepAngleStepAngleStepangleStep should be chosen larger for
smaller models. If AngleExtentAngleExtentAngleExtentAngleExtentAngleExtentangleExtent is not an integer multiple
of AngleStepAngleStepAngleStepAngleStepAngleStepangleStep, AngleStepAngleStepAngleStepAngleStepAngleStepangleStep is modified accordingly.
To ensure a sampling of the range of possible rotations that is
independent of the given AngleStartAngleStartAngleStartAngleStartAngleStartangleStart, the range of possible
rotations is modified as follows: If there is no positive integer
value n such that AngleStartAngleStartAngleStartAngleStartAngleStartangleStart plus n times
AngleStepAngleStepAngleStepAngleStepAngleStepangleStep is exactly 0.0, AngleStartAngleStartAngleStartAngleStartAngleStartangleStart is decreased
by up to AngleStepAngleStepAngleStepAngleStepAngleStepangleStep and AngleExtentAngleExtentAngleExtentAngleExtentAngleExtentangleExtent is increased by
AngleStepAngleStepAngleStepAngleStepAngleStepangleStep.
The model is pre-generated for the selected angle range and stored
in memory. The memory required to store the model is proportional
to the number of angle steps and the number of points in the model.
Hence, if AngleStepAngleStepAngleStepAngleStepAngleStepangleStep is too small or AngleExtentAngleExtentAngleExtentAngleExtentAngleExtentangleExtent
too big, it may happen that the model no longer fits into the
(virtual) memory. In this case, either AngleStepAngleStepAngleStepAngleStepAngleStepangleStep must be
enlarged or AngleExtentAngleExtentAngleExtentAngleExtentAngleExtentangleExtent must be reduced. In any case, it
is desirable that the model completely fits into the main memory,
because this avoids paging by the operating system, and hence the
time to find the object will be much smaller. Since angles can be
determined with subpixel resolution by find_ncc_modelfind_ncc_modelFindNccModelfind_ncc_modelFindNccModelFindNccModel,
AngleStepAngleStepAngleStepAngleStepAngleStepangleStep >= 1 can be
selected for models of a diameter smaller than about 200 pixels. If
AngleStepAngleStepAngleStepAngleStepAngleStepangleStep =
'auto'"auto""auto""auto""auto""auto" or 0 is selected,
create_ncc_modelcreate_ncc_modelCreateNccModelcreate_ncc_modelCreateNccModelCreateNccModel automatically determines a suitable angle
step length based on the size of the model. The automatically
computed angle step length can be queried using
get_ncc_model_paramsget_ncc_model_paramsGetNccModelParamsget_ncc_model_paramsGetNccModelParamsGetNccModelParams.
The parameter MetricMetricMetricMetricMetricmetric determines the conditions under which
the model is recognized in the image. If MetricMetricMetricMetricMetricmetric =
'use_polarity'"use_polarity""use_polarity""use_polarity""use_polarity""use_polarity", the object in the image and the model must
have the same contrast. If, for example, the model is a bright
object on a dark background, the object is found only if it is also
brighter than the background. If MetricMetricMetricMetricMetricmetric =
'ignore_global_polarity'"ignore_global_polarity""ignore_global_polarity""ignore_global_polarity""ignore_global_polarity""ignore_global_polarity", the object is found in the image
also if the contrast reverses globally. In the above example, the
object hence is also found if it is darker than the background. The
runtime of find_ncc_modelfind_ncc_modelFindNccModelfind_ncc_modelFindNccModelFindNccModel will increase slightly in this
case.
The center of gravity of the domain (region) of the model image
TemplateTemplateTemplateTemplateTemplatetemplate is used as the origin (reference point) of the
model. A different origin can be set with
set_ncc_model_originset_ncc_model_originSetNccModelOriginset_ncc_model_originSetNccModelOriginSetNccModelOrigin.
- Multithreading type: reentrant (runs in parallel with non-exclusive operators).
- Multithreading scope: global (may be called from any thread).
- Processed without parallelization.
This operator returns a handle. Note that the state of an instance of this handle type may be changed by specific operators even though the handle is used as an input parameter by those operators.

returns the value 2 (H_MSG_TRUE). If the parameter NumLevelsNumLevelsNumLevelsNumLevelsNumLevelsnumLevels are
chosen such that the model contains too few points, the error 8506
