LBitmap::AutoBinary

#include "ltwrappr.h"

virtual L_INT LBitmap::AutoBinary(uFlags = 0)

Applies binary segmentation to the bitmap using an automatically calculated threshold based on a two-peak method of statistical analysis of the histogram.

Returns

Comments

The bitmap is transformed into a binary image using a threshold calculated automatically based on statistical features of the bitmap. Best results are obtained with grayscale bitmaps.

Use LBitmap::AutoBinary when you simply want to apply binary segmentation to the bitmap using an automatically calculated threshold based on a two-peak method of statistical analysis on its histogram. Use LBitmap::DynamicBinary if you want to convert a bitmap into a black and white image without changing its bits per pixel by using a local threshold value for each pixel of the image. Use LBitmap::AutoBinarize if you want:

• Automatic pre-processing

• Pre-processing to include background elimination

• Pre-processing to include color leveling

• To perform automatic, percentile or median thresholding

• To manually specify a threshold value

This function supports 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images. Support for 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images is available only in the Document/Medical toolkits

If the bitmap has a region, the effect will be applied on the region only..

This function does not support signed data images. It returns the error code ERROR_SIGNED_DATA_NOT_SUPPORTED if a signed data image is passed to this function.

This function does not support 32-bit grayscale images. It returns the error code ERROR_GRAY32_UNSUPPORTED if a 32-bit grayscale image is passed to this function.
