HistogramEqualizeCommand Class

Summary
Linearizes the number of pixels, in an image, based on the specified color space. This can be used to bring out the detail in dark areas of an image. This function is useful for pre-processing images for the purpose of improving barcode recognition results.
Syntax

Objective-C
C++/CLI
Java
Python
public class HistogramEqualizeCommand : RasterCommand 
@interface LTHistogramEqualizeCommand : LTRasterCommand 
public class HistogramEqualizeCommand 
    extends RasterCommand 
public ref class HistogramEqualizeCommand : public RasterCommand   
class HistogramEqualizeCommand(RasterCommand):
Remarks
  • Previously this class only equalized the number of pixels per gray level, using a gray level representation of the image. This functionality is now obtained by passing HistogramEqualizeType.Gray for the Type property.
  • For the best results, set Type to HistogramEqualizeType.Yuv
  • This class can process the whole image or a region of the image.
  • This class 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.
  • This command does not support 32-bit grayscale images.
  • This command supports signed/unsigned data images.

Example

Run the HistogramEqualizeCommand on an image and apply histogram equalization with YUV color space.

C#
using Leadtools; 
using Leadtools.Codecs; 
using Leadtools.ImageProcessing.Color; 
 
 
public void HistogramEqualizeCommandExample() 
{ 
   // Load an image 
   RasterCodecs codecs = new RasterCodecs(); 
   codecs.ThrowExceptionsOnInvalidImages = true; 
 
   RasterImage image = codecs.Load(Path.Combine(LEAD_VARS.ImagesDir, "IMAGE1.CMP")); 
 
   // Prepare the command 
   HistogramEqualizeCommand command = new HistogramEqualizeCommand(); 
   //Histogram equalize the image. 
   command.Type = HistogramEqualizeType.Yuv; 
   command.Run(image); 
   codecs.Save(image, Path.Combine(LEAD_VARS.ImagesDir, "Result.jpg"), RasterImageFormat.Jpeg, 24); 
 
} 
 
static class LEAD_VARS 
{ 
   public const string ImagesDir = @"C:\LEADTOOLS22\Resources\Images"; 
}
