Detailed Description

Represents a class for applying a median filter to an image to reduce noise and preserve edges.

The median filter is a non-linear, spatial filter used to reduce impulsive noise in images. It replaces each pixel with the median value of the pixels in its local neighborhood, defined by the specified kernel size. The kernel size corresponds to a square neighborhood (size x size grid) around each pixel, where the median is calculated.

This process preserves edges better than linear smoothing filters while effectively removing salt-and-pepper noise and small image artifacts. A larger kernel removes more noise but also reduces image detail.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

MedianFilter()

MedianFilter ( )

default

Constructs a MedianFilter with a default kernel size of 3 (3×3 neighborhood).

ids_peak_icv 1.1

Member Function Documentation

GetKernelSize()

size_t GetKernelSize ( ) const

inline

Returns

The current kernel size used for the median filter.

Since

ids_peak_icv 1.1

Definition at line 122 of file peak_icv_median_filter.hpp.

Process()

Image Process ( const Image & image ) const

inline

Applies the median filter to the specified image.

Parameters

[in]

image

The image to process.

Supported pixel formats

Mono8 Mono10 Mono12 Mono16 RGB8 RGBa8 BGR8 BGRa8 Coord3D_C32f Coord3D_ABC32f

See the Pixel and Pixel Format Specifications for a detailed description of the pixel formats.

Note

Processes the entire image, ignoring any specified image region.

Exceptions

NotSupportedException	The pixel format is unsupported.
NotPossibleException	The kernel size must be an odd number.
OutOfRangeException	The kernel size exceeds the image dimensions.

SetKernelSize()

void SetKernelSize ( size_t kernelSize )

inline

Sets the kernel size used for the median filter.

The kernel size must be an odd number greater than 1 and smaller than the image dimensions. The kernel size defines the size of the neighborhood (in a size x size grid) used to calculate the median for each pixel.

A larger kernel removes more noise but also reduces image detail.

Parameters

[in]

kernelSize

Size of the kernel used for the median filter.
