ImageDev

ImageLocalMaxima2d

Removes the non-local maxima from the gradient amplitude of a two-dimensional image.

Access to parameter description

For an introduction: For each pixel of a gradient image, gray level values within the neighborhood in the direction of the gradient are computed (given by X and Y gradients). If this value is greater than all of its neighbors it is kept, otherwise it is set to 0.

This algorithm eliminates some noise effects. It is very useful after having applied the GradientOperator2d algorithm.

The output edges are one pixel thickness edges. It is then possible to perform a HysteresisThresholding algorithm.
