MorphReconstructErode

Reconstructs an image by erosion.

Syntax

IppStatus ippiMorphReconstructErode_<mod>(const Ipp<datatype>* pSrc, int srcStep, Ipp<datatype>* pSrcDst, int srcDstStep, IppiSize roiSize, Ipp8u* pBuf, IppiNorm norm);

Supported values for mod:

8u_C1IR

16u_C1IR

32f_C1IR

64f_C1IR

Parameters

pSrc

Pointer to the source image ROI.

srcStep

Distance in bytes between starts of consecutive lines in the source image.

pSrcDst

Pointer to the descreased and reconstructed image ROI.

srcDstStep

Distance in bytes between starts of consecutive lines in the decreased and reconstructed image.

roiSize

Size of the source and destination image ROI.

norm

Type of norm to form the mask for dilation; the following values are possible:

ippiNormInf	Infinity norm (8-connectivity, 3x3 rectangular mask).
ippiNormL1	L1 norm (4-connectivity, 3x3 cross mask).

pBuffer

Pointer to the buffer.

Description

The function ippiMorphReconstructErode is declared in the ippcv.h It operates with ROI (see Regions of Interest in Intel IPP).

This function performs morphological reconstruction of the increased source image by erosion [Vincent93]. The operation is performed in the working buffer whose size should be computed using the function MorphReconstructGetBufferSize beforehand.

This operation enables detection of the regional minimums that can be used as markers for successive watershed segmentation.

Return Values

ippStsNoErr	Indicates no error. Any other value indicates an error or a warning.
ippStsNullPtrErr	Indicates an error condition if one of the specified pointers is NULL.
ippStsSizeErr	Indicates an error condition if roiSize has a field with a zero or negative value.
ippStsStepErr	Indicates an error condition if srcStep or srcDstStep is less than roiSize.width * <pixelSize>.
ippStsNotEvenStepErr	Indicates an error condition if one of the step values is not divisible by 4 for floating-point images.
ippStsBadArgErr	Indicates an error condition if norm has an illegal value.
