.SH NAME
|
||
|
im_scale, im_scaleps \- scale an image to unsigned char image
|
||
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
#include <vips/vips.h>
|
||
|
|
||
|
int im_scale(in, out)
|
||
|
.br
|
||
|
IMAGE *in, *out;
|
||
|
|
||
|
int im_scaleps(in, out)
|
||
|
.br
|
||
|
IMAGE *in, *out;
|
||
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
These functions scale a non-complex image to a displayable
|
||
|
byte (unsigned char) image.
|
||
|
|
||
|
im_scale() scales the image held by image descriptor to a byte (unsigned char)
|
||
|
image and writes the result on the image descriptor out. Sizes and the number
|
||
|
of the bands of out are identical to those of input.
|
||
|
Input image should be non complex and can have any number of channels.
|
||
|
The output is scaled between 0 and 255; if the image is multiband the maximum
|
||
|
value of all channels is set to 255 and the minimum to 0. In all cases,
|
||
|
rounding is performed by adding .5 to the scaled values.
|
||
|
|
||
|
.B im_scaleps()
|
||
|
scales to 0 - 255 by mapping each pixel through the equation
|
||
|
|
||
|
log10(1.0 + pow(x, 0.25))
|
||
|
|
||
|
and then multiplying by a factor so that the image maximum is 255.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This transformation highlights both low and high spatial
|
||
|
frequencies in the power spectrum.
|
||
|
The images produced by this non-linear transformation are only
|
||
|
for display and not for further processing.
|
||
|
.SH RETURN VALUE
|
||
|
Each function returns 0 on success and -1 on error.
