px.flood: Select a region of homogeneous colour

In imager: Image Processing Library Based on 'CImg'

Select a region of homogeneous colour

Description

Select pixels that are similar to a seed pixel. The underlying algorithm is the same as the bucket fill (AKA flood fill). Unlike with the bucket fill, the image isn't changed, the function simply returns a pixel set containing the selected pixels.

Usage

px.flood(im, x, y, z = 1, sigma = 0, high_connexity = FALSE)

Arguments

im	an image
x	X-coordinate of the starting point of the region to flood
y	Y-coordinate of the starting point of the region to flood
z	Z-coordinate of the starting point of the region to flood
sigma	Tolerance concerning neighborhood values.
high_connexity	Use 8-connexity (only for 2d images, default FALSE).
