setWeights
public IntelligentScissorsMB setWeights(float weight_non_edge, float weight_gradient_direction, float weight_gradient_magnitude) Specify weights of feature functionsConsider keeping weights normalized (sum of weights equals to 1.0) Discrete dynamic programming (DP) goal is minimization of costs between pixels.
- Parameters:
weight_non_edge- Specify cost of non-edge pixels (default: 0.43f)weight_gradient_direction- Specify cost of gradient direction function (default: 0.43f)weight_gradient_magnitude- Specify cost of gradient magnitude function (default: 0.14f)- Returns:
- automatically generated
-
setGradientMagnitudeMaxLimit
Specify gradient magnitude max value thresholdZero limit value is used to disable gradient magnitude thresholding (default behavior, as described in original article). Otherwize pixels with
gradient magnitude >= thresholdhave zero cost. Note: Thresholding should be used for images with irregular regions (to avoid stuck on parameters from high-contract areas, like embedded logos).- Parameters:
gradient_magnitude_threshold_max- Specify gradient magnitude max value threshold (default: 0, disabled)- Returns:
- automatically generated
-
setGradientMagnitudeMaxLimit
Specify gradient magnitude max value thresholdZero limit value is used to disable gradient magnitude thresholding (default behavior, as described in original article). Otherwize pixels with
gradient magnitude >= thresholdhave zero cost. Note: Thresholding should be used for images with irregular regions (to avoid stuck on parameters from high-contract areas, like embedded logos).- Returns:

setEdgeFeatureZeroCrossingParameters
public IntelligentScissorsMB setEdgeFeatureZeroCrossingParameters(float gradient_magnitude_min_value) Switch to "Laplacian Zero-Crossing" edge feature extractor and specify its parametersThis feature extractor is used by default according to article.
Implementation has additional filtering for regions with low-amplitude noise. This filtering is enabled through parameter of minimal gradient amplitude (use some small value 4, 8, 16). Note: Current implementation of this feature extractor is based on processing of grayscale images (color image is converted to grayscale image first). Note: Canny edge detector is a bit slower, but provides better results (especially on color images): use setEdgeFeatureCannyParameters().
- Parameters:
gradient_magnitude_min_value- Minimal gradient magnitude value for edge pixels (default: 0, check is disabled)- Returns:
- automatically generated
-
