mediaLib Library Functions        mlib_ImageGradientMxN_Fp(3MLIB)



NAME
     mlib_ImageGradientMxN_Fp - MxN gradient filter

SYNOPSIS
     cc [ flag... ] file... -lmlib [ library... ]
     #include 

     mlib_status mlib_ImageGradientMxN_Fp(mlib_image *dst,
          const mlib_image *src, const mlib_d64 *hmask,
          const mlib_d64 *vmask, mlib_s32 m, mlib_s32 n, mlib_s32 dm,
          mlib_s32 dn, mlib_s32 cmask, mlib_edge edge);


DESCRIPTION
     The mlib_ImageGradientMxN_Fp() function  performs  floating-
     point edge detection by computing the magnitude of the image
     gradient vector in two orthogonal directions using MxN  gra-
     dient filtering.


     It uses the following equation:

       dst[x][y][i] = ( SH(x,y,i)**2 + SV(x,y,i)**2 )**0.5



     where SH() and SV() are the horizontal and vertical gradient
     images  generated  from  the  corresponding  channel  of the
     source image by correlating it with the supplied  orthogonal
     (horizontal and vertical) gradient masks.

PARAMETERS
     The function takes the following arguments:

     dst      Pointer to destination image.


     src      Pointer to source image.


     hmask    Pointer to horizontal mask in row-major order.


     vmask    Pointer to vertical mask in row-major order.


     m        Width of the convolution kernel. m > 1.


     n        Height of the convolution kernel. n > 1.

     dm       X coordinate of the key element in the  convolution
              kernel. 0 < dm < m.


     dn       Y coordinate of the key element in the  convolution
              kernel. 0 < dn < n.


     cmask    Channel mask to indicate the channels  to  be  con-
              volved,  each  bit of which represents a channel in
              the image. The channels corresponding to 1 bits are
              those  to be processed. For a single channel image,
              the channel mask is ignored.


     edge     Type of edge condition. It can be one of  the  fol-
              lowing:

                MLIB_EDGE_DST_NO_WRITE
                MLIB_EDGE_DS_FILL_ZERO
                MLIB_EDGE_DST_COPY_SRC
                MLIB_EDGE_SR_EXTEND



RETURN VALUES
     The function returns MLIB_SUCCESS if  successful.  Otherwise
     it returns MLIB_FAILURE.
