sp_saddle_points_sub_pix — 2D subpix op

Data kinds: imagecontour

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

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

sp_saddle_points_sub_pix: 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

Detects saddle points of the gray-value surface with sub-pixel accuracy (equivalent to HALCON `saddle_points_sub_pix`).

3x3 の 2 次曲面フィットのヘッセ行列が不定符号(`det H < 0、両主曲率の符号が逆)になる画素を鞍点候補とし、勾配 0 点がセル内(|dx|,|dy| <= 0.5)に収まるものだけを残す。a は鞍点の強さ(より小さい方の主曲率の絶対値)のしきい値を 1e-4〜0.0201 に振る(thr = 1e-4 + 0.02*a)。b` は未使用。戻り値は CONTOUR、座標の単位は入力画像のピクセル。
