sk_dog — 2D edges op

Data kinds: imageimage

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

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

Usage

DoG (Difference of Gaussians) filter. Takes the difference between images blurred with two different sigma values, cheaply obtaining a bandpass response close to LoG (Laplacian of Gaussian) - edge/blob detection that emphasizes only a specific spatial-frequency band.

HALCON の diff_of_gauss(Approximate the LoG operator.)に相当。実装は `filters.difference_of_gaussians(v, 1.0, 1.0+3.0*a)` の絶対値を正規化したもの —— 小さい方の σ は 1.0 に固定し、a は大きい方の σ を 1.0〜4.0 に振る(σ の比が広がるほど検出する構造のスケール帯が広がる)。b は未使用。
