使い方

EPI直線の向きから求めた画素ごとの傾き(構造テンソル、1パスで計算)。

A scene point traces a straight line in the epipolar-plane image

(:func:lf_epi), so along that line the intensity is constant:

`E_u + s * E_x = 0`. Accumulating that constraint over the whole angular

grid and a `window x window` spatial neighbourhood gives the closed-form

least-squares slope `s = -(J_ux + J_vy) / (J_xx + J_yy)` with

`J_ab = sum(E_a * E_b)` — one pass over the light field, no sweep, both

the horizontal and vertical EPI directions pooled.

This estimator is biased, and the bias is the reason to also run

:func:lf_depth_from_focus. It is ordinary (not total) least squares on

finite differences, so it needs the EPI line to advance less than roughly

one texture correlation length per view. Measured 2026-09-01 on

5x5x64x64 synthetic fields, median over the interior: with texture

`sigma = 1.5 px, true +1.00 -> +1.0004, +0.50 -> +0.5285`,

`+1.50 -> +1.3018, +2.00 -> +1.4614; with sigma = 5.0` px the same

slopes give `+1.0003, +0.5029, +1.4827, +1.9482`. Integer

slopes on a wrapped field come back within 4e-4 and `s = 0` is exact;

`|s| > 1 is under-estimated, by 27% at s = 2` on the roughest texture.

Use it as a fast dense initialiser, not as the final word.

Returns `(slope_map, energy): the (H, W) slope map and the (H, W)`

gradient energy `J_xx + J_yy` that was the denominator. Pixels whose

energy is below *min_energy* have no measurable parallax (a flat patch

of sky); their slope is set to 0 and their energy reported as-is, so you

threshold on `energy` instead of being handed a plausible-looking number

divided by ~0.

Raises `ValueError`: *lf* not a valid light field, an angular/spatial

shape where *neither* EPI direction carries information (the horizontal EPI

needs `U >= 2 **and** W >= 2, the vertical needs V >= 2` and

`H >= 2`), an even or non-positive *window*, a non-positive *min_energy*.

Typed bridge of the lightfield op `lf_epi_slope into the 2-D evolution registry: the same implementation, called under the op(v, a, b) convention. This op has no tunable parameter; a and b` are unused.
