sqrt_image — 2D arithmetic op

Data kinds: imageimage

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

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

Usage

Takes the square root of pixel values clipped to [0,1]. This becomes a gamma-like tonal compression that lifts the shadows (the square root pushes x=0.25 up to 0.5, and x=0.04 up to 0.2). Corresponds to HALCON's `sqrt_image` (Calculate the square root of an image.).

`a, b` は未使用 —— 固定の平方根写像で調整点はない。強さを変えたいなら

`gamma_image(exponent が a` で振れる)を使う。
