cv_dist — 2D region op

Data kinds: regionimage

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

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

Usage

Distance transform (OpenCV implementation, L2/Euclidean approximation). For each pixel in the foreground region, computes the distance to the nearest background pixel and returns it as an image - used as preprocessing for extracting a region's "thickness" or its centerline.

HALCON の distance_transform(Compute the distance transformation of a region.)に相当。実装は `cv2.distanceTransform(_u8(binm(v)), DIST_L2, maskSize=3)` を正規化したもの(cv2 は float32 で返すが、契約に合わせて float64 化 —— 2026-09-03 実測でベンチマーク済み)。maskSize=3 は 3x3 近傍での近似計算(厳密なユークリッド距離ではなく高速近似)。a, b は未使用。
