Description
fuzzy_measure_posfuzzy_measure_posFuzzyMeasurePosFuzzyMeasurePosfuzzy_measure_pos extracts straight edges which lie
perpendicular to the major axis of a rectangle or an annular arc.
In addition to measure_posmeasure_posMeasurePosMeasurePosmeasure_pos it uses fuzzy functions to
evaluate and select the edges.
For an explanation of the concept of 1D measuring see the introduction of
chapter 1D Measuring.
The algorithm of fuzzy_measure_posfuzzy_measure_posFuzzyMeasurePosFuzzyMeasurePosfuzzy_measure_pos
works by averaging the gray values in “slices”
perpendicular to the major axis of the rectangle or annular arc
in order to obtain
a one-dimensional edge profile. The sampling is done at subpixel
positions in the image ImageImageImageimageimage at integer row and column
distances (in the coordinate frame of the rectangle) from the center
of the rectangle. Since this involves some calculations which can
be used repeatedly in several measurements, the operator
gen_measure_rectangle2gen_measure_rectangle2GenMeasureRectangle2GenMeasureRectangle2gen_measure_rectangle2 is used to perform these
calculations only once, thus increasing the speed of
fuzzy_measure_posfuzzy_measure_posFuzzyMeasurePosFuzzyMeasurePosfuzzy_measure_pos significantly. Since there is a trade-off
between accuracy and speed in the subpixel calculations of the gray
values, and thus in the accuracy of the extracted edge positions,
different interpolation schemes can be selected in
gen_measure_rectangle2gen_measure_rectangle2GenMeasureRectangle2GenMeasureRectangle2gen_measure_rectangle2. (The interpolation only
influences rectangles not aligned with the image axes and annular arcs.)
The measure
object generated with gen_measure_rectangle2gen_measure_rectangle2GenMeasureRectangle2GenMeasureRectangle2gen_measure_rectangle2 is passed
in MeasureHandleMeasureHandleMeasureHandlemeasureHandlemeasure_handle.
After the one-dimensional edge profile has been calculated, subpixel
edge locations are computed by convolving the profile with the
derivatives of a Gaussian smoothing kernel of standard deviation
SigmaSigmaSigmasigmasigma. Salient edges can be selected with the parameter
AmpThreshAmpThreshAmpThreshampThreshamp_thresh, which constitutes a threshold on the amplitude,
i.e., the absolute value of the first derivative of the edge.
Additionally, it is possible to select only positive edges, i.e.,
edges which constitute a dark-to-light transition in the direction
of the major axis of the rectangle (TransitionTransitionTransitiontransitiontransition =
'positive'"positive""positive""positive""positive"), only negative edges, i.e., light-to-dark
transitions (TransitionTransitionTransitiontransitiontransition = 'negative'"negative""negative""negative""negative"), or both
types of edges (TransitionTransitionTransitiontransitiontransition = 'all'"all""all""all""all"). Finally, it
is possible to select which edge points are returned.
Having extracted subpixel edge locations,
features of these edges are evaluated by a corresponding fuzzy
function, which can be set by set_fuzzy_measureset_fuzzy_measureSetFuzzyMeasureSetFuzzyMeasureset_fuzzy_measure. Which edges
are selected can be determined with the parameter FuzzyThreshFuzzyThreshFuzzyThreshfuzzyThreshfuzzy_thresh,
which constitutes a threshold on the weight over all fuzzy sets, i.e., the
geometric mean of the weights of the defined sets.
The selected edges are returned as single points, which lie on the
major axis of the rectangle or annular arc, in
(RowEdgeRowEdgeRowEdgerowEdgerow_edge, ColumnEdgeColumnEdgeColumnEdgecolumnEdgecolumn_edge). The corresponding edge
amplitudes are returned in AmplitudeAmplitudeAmplitudeamplitudeamplitude, the fuzzy scores in
FuzzyScoreFuzzyScoreFuzzyScorefuzzyScorefuzzy_score. In addition, the
distance between consecutive edge points is returned in
DistanceDistanceDistancedistancedistance. Here, Distance[i] corresponds to the distance
between Edge[i] and Edge[i+1], i.e., the tuple DistanceDistanceDistancedistancedistance
contains one element less than the tuples RowEdgeRowEdgeRowEdgerowEdgerow_edge and
ColumnEdgeColumnEdgeColumnEdgecolumnEdgecolumn_edge.
Attention
fuzzy_measure_posfuzzy_measure_posFuzzyMeasurePosFuzzyMeasurePosfuzzy_measure_pos only returns meaningful results if the
assumptions that the edges are straight and perpendicular to the
major axis of the rectangle are fulfilled. Thus, it should not be
used to extract edges from curved objects, for example.
Furthermore, the user should ensure that the rectangle is as close
to perpendicular as possible to the edges in the image. Additionally,
SigmaSigmaSigmasigmasigma must not become larger than approx. 0.5 * Length1
(for Length1 see gen_measure_rectangle2gen_measure_rectangle2GenMeasureRectangle2GenMeasureRectangle2gen_measure_rectangle2).
It should be kept in mind that fuzzy_measure_posfuzzy_measure_posFuzzyMeasurePosFuzzyMeasurePosfuzzy_measure_pos ignores the
domain of ImageImageImageimageimage for efficiency reasons. If certain regions
in the image should be excluded from the measurement a new measure
object with appropriately modified parameters should be generated.
