Image Filtering
===============

.. highlight:: cpp

Functions and classes described in this section are used to perform various linear or non-linear filtering operations on 2D images.

.. note::

   * An example containing all basic morphology operators like erode and dilate can be found at opencv_source_code/samples/gpu/morphology.cpp

gpu::BaseRowFilter_GPU
----------------------
.. ocv:class:: gpu::BaseRowFilter_GPU

Base class for linear or non-linear filters that processes rows of 2D arrays. Such filters are used for the "horizontal" filtering passes in separable filters. ::

    class BaseRowFilter_GPU
    {
    public:
        BaseRowFilter_GPU(int ksize_, int anchor_);
        virtual ~BaseRowFilter_GPU() {}
        virtual void operator()(const GpuMat& src, GpuMat& dst, Stream& stream = Stream::Null()) = 0;
        int ksize, anchor;
    };


.. note:: This class does not allocate memory for a destination image. Usually this class is used inside :ocv:class:`gpu::FilterEngine_GPU`.



gpu::BaseColumnFilter_GPU
-------------------------
.. ocv:class:: gpu::BaseColumnFilter_GPU

Base class for linear or non-linear filters that processes columns of 2D arrays. Such filters are used for the "vertical" filtering passes in separable filters. ::

    class BaseColumnFilter_GPU
    {
    public:
        BaseColumnFilter_GPU(int ksize_, int anchor_);
        virtual ~BaseColumnFilter_GPU() {}
        virtual void operator()(const GpuMat& src, GpuMat& dst, Stream& stream = Stream::Null()) = 0;
        int ksize, anchor;
    };


.. note:: This class does not allocate memory for a destination image. Usually this class is used inside :ocv:class:`gpu::FilterEngine_GPU`.



gpu::BaseFilter_GPU
-------------------
.. ocv:class:: gpu::BaseFilter_GPU

Base class for non-separable 2D filters. ::

    class CV_EXPORTS BaseFilter_GPU
    {
    public:
        BaseFilter_GPU(const Size& ksize_, const Point& anchor_);
        virtual ~BaseFilter_GPU() {}
        virtual void operator()(const GpuMat& src, GpuMat& dst, Stream& stream = Stream::Null()) = 0;
        Size ksize;
        Point anchor;
    };


.. note:: This class does not allocate memory for a destination image. Usually this class is used inside :ocv:class:`gpu::FilterEngine_GPU`.



gpu::FilterEngine_GPU
---------------------
.. ocv:class:: gpu::FilterEngine_GPU

Base class for the Filter Engine. ::

    class CV_EXPORTS FilterEngine_GPU
    {
    public:
        virtual ~FilterEngine_GPU() {}

        virtual void apply(const GpuMat& src, GpuMat& dst,
                           Rect roi = Rect(0,0,-1,-1), Stream& stream = Stream::Null()) = 0;
    };


The class can be used to apply an arbitrary filtering operation to an image. It contains all the necessary intermediate buffers. Pointers to the initialized ``FilterEngine_GPU`` instances are returned by various ``create*Filter_GPU`` functions (see below), and they are used inside high-level functions such as :ocv:func:`gpu::filter2D`, :ocv:func:`gpu::erode`, :ocv:func:`gpu::Sobel` , and others.

By using ``FilterEngine_GPU`` instead of functions you can avoid unnecessary memory allocation for intermediate buffers and get better performance: ::

    while (...)
    {
        gpu::GpuMat src = getImg();
        gpu::GpuMat dst;
        // Allocate and release buffers at each iterations
        gpu::GaussianBlur(src, dst, ksize, sigma1);
    }

    // Allocate buffers only once
    cv::Ptr<gpu::FilterEngine_GPU> filter =
        gpu::createGaussianFilter_GPU(CV_8UC4, ksize, sigma1);
    while (...)
    {
        gpu::GpuMat src = getImg();
        gpu::GpuMat dst;
        filter->apply(src, dst, cv::Rect(0, 0, src.cols, src.rows));
    }
    // Release buffers only once
    filter.release();


``FilterEngine_GPU`` can process a rectangular sub-region of an image. By default, if ``roi == Rect(0,0,-1,-1)`` , ``FilterEngine_GPU`` processes the inner region of an image ( ``Rect(anchor.x, anchor.y, src_size.width - ksize.width, src_size.height - ksize.height)`` ) because some filters do not check whether indices are outside the image for better performance. See below to understand which filters support processing the whole image and which do not and identify image type limitations.

.. note:: The GPU filters do not support the in-place mode.
