cv_dilate — 2D morphology op

Data kinds: imageimage

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

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

Usage

Grayscale morphological dilation (OpenCV implementation). Replaces each pixel with the maximum value of its neighborhood, expanding bright regions and shrinking dark ones (the opposite of cv_erode).

HALCON の gray_dilation(Perform a gray value dilation on an image.)に相当。実装は `cv2.dilate(v, se)、se は楕円形でサイズ 3+2*int(a*3)` —— a は構造要素サイズを 3〜9 に振る。b は未使用。
