Detailed Description

function computing a contrasted image by ponderation along the Z axis

The Z stack focus by pondaration computes the contrast of pixels for each plan of a 3D image, then averages the pixels of each plans according to their contrast.

The parameters of this filter are :

• is the radius of the structuring element used to compute the contrast. With a low value for we are more sensitive to small details but also to noise. The default value is 10.
• defines the way the different plans are combined. If the value is too low the transitions between plans won't be smooth, and if the value is too high it will results in a blurred image. The default value is 1.
• is the factor by which the image is resized before processing. A low value allows us to save time during the process. The lower this value is, the more we are sensitive to macro elements in the image, instead of small details. The defaut value is 1.

Here is an example with default parameters.

Example of Python code :

Example imports

import PyIPSDK
import PyIPSDK.IPSDKIPLFiltering as filter

Code Example

    # opening of input images
    inImg = PyIPSDK.loadTiffImageFile(inputImgPath)

    # Optional parameters
    smoothing = 1
    zoomFactor = 0.25
    contrastRay = 1
    # Z stack focus ponderation
    outImg = filter.zStackFocusPonderationImg(inImg, contrastRay, smoothing, zoomFactor)

Code Example

    // opening input image
    ImagePtr pInImg = loadTiffImageFile(inputImgPath);

    // define optionals parameters
    ipUInt32 meanSmoothingValue = 1;
    ipReal32 zoomFactor = 0.25;
    ipUInt16 contrastRadius = 1;

    // compute Z stack focus ponderation on input image
    ImagePtr pOutImg = zStackFocusPonderationImg(pInImg, contrastRadius,meanSmoothingValue,zoomFactor);
