cv_bilateral — 2D smoothing op

Data kinds: imageimage

Call: fullseye.apply(img, "cv_bilateral", a=0.5, b=0.5) (the 2-D model is one image plus two scalar knobs a,b∈[0,1])

HALCON equivalent: bilateral_filter (the HALCON reference is a useful guide to its meaning and parameters)

Usage

Bilateral filter (OpenCV implementation). A Gaussian-style smoothing that weights by both spatial proximity and brightness-value proximity, smoothing only flat areas without blurring edges (boundaries with large brightness differences).

HALCON の bilateral_filter(bilateral filtering of an image.)に相当。実装は `cv2.bilateralFilter(v, d=5, sigmaColor=0.05+0.4*b, sigmaSpace=1.0+3.0*a)` —— カーネル直径 d は 5 に固定、a は空間方向の広がり sigmaSpace を 1.0〜4.0 に、b は輝度方向の許容差 sigmaColor を 0.05〜0.45 に振る(引数の並びが sigmaColor, sigmaSpace の順なので a/b の対応がずれやすい点に注意)。
