Description

erosion_rectangle1erosion_rectangle1ErosionRectangle1ErosionRectangle1ErosionRectangle1erosion_rectangle1 applies an erosion with a rectangular structuring element to the input regions RegionRegionRegionRegionregionregion. The size of the structuring rectangle is WidthWidthWidthWidthwidthwidth x HeightHeightHeightHeightheightheight. The operator results in reduced regions, and the areas smaller than the rectangular mask are eliminated.

erosion_rectangle1erosion_rectangle1ErosionRectangle1ErosionRectangle1ErosionRectangle1erosion_rectangle1 is a very fast operation because the height of the rectangle enters only logarithmically into the runtime complexity, while the width does not enter at all. This leads to excellent runtime efficiency, even in the case of very large rectangles (edge length > 100).

Regions containing small connecting strips between large areas are separated only seemingly. They remain logically one region.

Attention

To reduce a region by the same amount in all directions, WidthWidthWidthWidthwidthwidth and HeightHeightHeightHeightheightheight must be odd. If this is not the case, the region is eroded by a larger amount at the right or at the bottom, respectively, than at the left or at the top.

Complexity

Let F1 be the area of an input region and H be the height of the rectangle. Then the runtime complexity for one region is:

Result

erosion_rectangle1erosion_rectangle1ErosionRectangle1ErosionRectangle1ErosionRectangle1erosion_rectangle1 returns TRUE if all parameters are correct. The behavior in case of empty or no input region can be set via:

Otherwise, an exception is raised.
