Detailed Description

Abstract class providing an interface to modify images before edge detection is applied.

Any particular Filter will be run only once on each image, allowing incremental data to be gathered by a Filter.

Member Function Documentation

virtual cv::Mat* Filter::filter ( const cv::Mat &  src )

pure virtual

run the filter on a given image

Filters should be implemented to enhance potential targets in the image so that they can be more easily picked up by an edge detector and supress other features of the image The filter should not make decisions on what constitutes a target. Any unusual object in the frame should be considered a target for the purposes of the filter

Returns

A pointer to a new filtered image

Implemented in KMeansFilter.

void Filter::setParameter	(	std::string	param,
		int	value
	)

Sets parameter in internal map.

These parameters are used for doing on the fly adjustments to a filter during testing. There is no guarantee that a given filter will use any given parameter.
