Description

Although OriginPro offers many manipulable tools to process images, user-defined spatial filters can process an image flexibly, allowing you to apply various effects on images.

The imgUserfilter function filters the input image using a user-defined mask. With this function, customer can create a user-defined spatial filter and apply it to the image. The selected filter is passed as a parameter to this function. The filter has a rectangular form (matrix) where the values are user-defined. It allows the creation of simple customized filters, where each value found in matrix is multiplied by the corresponding pixel, and then the specified operation is performed on the results.

Examples

In this example, we use the imgUserfilter function to apply a user-defined filter to the input image:

  1. Create a new matrix for the mask.
  2. From the menu, select Matrix: Set Dimensions to open the dialog of mdim. Set Columns to 3 and Rows to 3. Click OK to close the dialog.
  3. Enter the values for this matrix as the screenshot below:
  4. Create another matrix and import myocyte2.tif under \Samples\Image Processing and Analysis folder into it.
  5. When this image is active, select Image: Spatial Filters: User Filter to open the dialog of the imgUserfilter X-Function.
  6. In the dialog, change the settings as the screenshot below and click OK to close the dialog.

    A new image is created. We can see that the edges and details are enhanced.

Algorithm

The computation uses L_UserFilterBitmap() function from LEADTOOLS Main API. Please refer to the LEADTOOLS Main API Help file, Version 14 and read the L_UserFilterBitmap topic.
