BUILT-IN SYMBOL
ImageFileFilter[f,inputfile,r,outputfile]
applies the function f to the range r neighborhood of each pixel in each channel of the image stored in inputfile and stores the result in outputfile.
Details and Options
- ImageFileFilter can be used to read, process, and write successive blocks of data from a very large image file whose size could exceed available memory.
- ImageFileFilter[f,inputfile,r] stores the result under the "Image" directory in $WolframDocumentsDirectory.
- ImageFileFilter works with TIFF, JPEG, and PNG files. The created outputfile always has the same file format, data type, and dimensions as the inputfile.
- ImageFileFilter works on images with any number of channels.
- The image files inputfile and outputfile can be given as a string or a File object.
- ImageFileFilter[f,inputfile,r] replaces the value of each pixel by the result of applying the function f to the × array of values around that pixel.
- ImageFileFilter[f,"inputfile",{rrow,rcol}] uses range rrow in the row direction, and rcol in the column direction.
- The function f should always return a number or a list of any length.
- The channel values supplied to f are normally in the range 0 to 1, regardless of the underlying type used in the Image object. The function f is assumed to return channel values that are normally in the range 0 to 1.
- ImageFileFilter operates separately on each channel in an image.
- The following options can be given:
- The following suboptions can be given to Method:
- "ImageList" All frames to process from a multi-frame file "MaxBlockSize" 8000000 maximal size of image blocks in pixels loaded into the memory
- With the default setting Interleaving->False, the elements in the arrays to which f is applied are individual channel values for the pixels.
- For the most efficient file processing, stripes or tiles of the image may be accessed in a specific order.
- The value of the option "MaxBlockSize" may be exceeded if it is smaller than the smallest block supported for the input file.
- With "ImageList"->{l1,l2,…}, the output image only contains the processed frames.
- Padding->None is not supported by ImageFileFilter.
