GeodesicErosion

Updated In 8 Graphic
GeodesicErosion
gives the fixed point of the geodesic erosion of the image marker constrained by the image mask.
MORE INFORMATION
  • GeodesicErosion effectively starts with marker, then repeatedly erodes it, masking with mask, until the result no longer changes.
  • GeodesicErosion by default treats all eight pixels surrounding a given pixel as adjacent.
  • The option setting CornerNeighbors->False treats only the four pixels in the coordinate directions as adjacent.
  • If multiple image channels are present, GeodesicErosion operates on each of them separately.
  • The default setting Padding->None considers smaller neighborhoods at the edges of an image.
