gauss_filter — 2D smoothing op

Data kinds: imageimage

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

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

gauss_filter: 入力 → 出力

*The figure is the real output on a synthetic 128×128 input. Left: input, right: output (a non-image return value is shown as the value itself).*

Usage

Smoothing via Gaussian blur (`scipy.ndimage.gaussian_filter, sigma 0.3+2.7*a). A stand-in for HALCON's gauss_filter` (Smooth using discrete Gauss functions.) -- HALCON uses a discrete Gaussian kernel (integer arithmetic), while this uses a continuous-Gaussian scipy implementation; it is an approximation, but the results are very close.

`a がシグマを 0.3〜3.0 の範囲で振る。b` は未使用。実装は

`gauss_image` と同一。

• Sample-data catalog (download URLs / licences) — 2-D uses skimage.data (BSD/public domain) plus synthetic images; 3-D lists download URLs for real data sources (Stanford, PDS, …).

• 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.
