contour op• Data kinds: contour → feature
• Call: fullseye.apply(img, "contour_point_num_xld", a=0.5, b=0.5) (the 2-D model is one image plus two scalar knobs a,b∈[0,1])
• HALCON equivalent: contour_point_num_xld (the HALCON reference is a useful guide to its meaning and parameters)
*The figure is the actual output on a synthetic 128×128 input. Left: input, right: output. Point clouds are drawn as a top-down scatter (brightness = z), 1-D series as a line plot, volumes as the maximum-intensity projection along z, videos as the middle frame, complex images as magnitude; return values that are not pictures are shown as the values themselves.*
*Knob a does not change the output (measured: identical at 0.1 / 0.5 / 0.9).*
*Knob b does not change the output (measured: identical at 0.1 / 0.5 / 0.9).*
Stages (the ops that come before → this op, left to right):
▸ contour_point_num_xld: stages (docs site)
Selects the contour with the most points among a group of XLD contours and returns its vertex count normalized by 500 into [0,1] (saturating at 1.0 for 500 or more points). a and b are unused. Returns 0 if there are no contours.
Unlike HALCON's contour_point_num_xld (an operation that returns the actual number of points contained in an XLD contour as is), this implementation is an approximation that returns not the point count itself but a ratio scaled by 500 points (because of the contract that the feature sort carries values assumed to lie in [0,1]).

• Operator provenance and references — the sources of the research/methods this op family came from.
• The canonical algorithm (author, year) and its uses are named in the family usage guide above.
The program below has been verified to run (same input as the figure). In Studio's help this block becomes buttons that load and run it on the spot.
