LBitmap::CLAHE

#include "ltwrappr.h"

virtual L_INT LBitmap::CLAHE(Alpha, TileSize, nfclipLimit, Binnumber, uFlags)

L_FLOAT Alpha;

distribution parameter value

L_UINT TileSize;

Size of tiles

L_FLOAT nfclipLimit;

contrast enhancement limit

L_UINT Binnumber;

Number of bins for the histogram

L_UINT uFlags;

flags

Adjusts the image contrast using the Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalizer (CLAHE) method, Which uses several histograms each corresponding to a distinct section in the image while limiting the amplification of the noise in the image.

Parameter Description
Alpha Non-negative real scalar specifying a distribution parameter.
TileSize Positive integer specifying the size of tiles ranging from 1 to 60.
nfclipLimit Real scalar in the range [0, 1] that specifies a contrast enhancement limit. Higher numbers result in more contrast.
Binnumber Multiple of 2 integer in the range [2, 1024] that specifies the number of bins for the histogram used in building a contrast enhancing transformation.
uFlags Flags specifying the desired histogram shape for the image tiles. Possible values are:
CLAHE_RAYLIEH
CLAHE_EXPONENTIAL
CLAHE_NORMAL
CLAHE_SIGMOID
CLAHE_RETURN8BITIMAGE
CLAHE_RETURN16BITIMAGE

Returns

SUCCESS The function was successful.
< 1 An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.
