IntensityHistogram

Computes the histogram of a gray level image.

Access to parameter description

For an introduction: For each gray level $i$ of the input image, the number of pixels with intensity $i$ is computed.
This number of points per level is given in an histogram array. The histogram size depends on the intensity range. As an example, for an 8-bit integer image, the histogram $H$ is an array with 256 entries. $H(i)$ is the number of pixels at level i, for $i \in [0,255]$.

Notice: This algorithm can be used only on integer input images. The IntensityBinHistogram algorithm must be used to compute a histogram on floating point images.
