  2. Traditional Image Processing • Data Structures • Images, Palettes, Histograms, Profiles, etc. • Formanydatatypes (8bit, 16 bit, float, etc.) • Algorithms • Dependent on Data Structures • Dependent on datatypes • Combinatorial Explosion -> unmanageable • Toimplementonenewalgorithm, it must bewrittenmanytimes – foreach type www.ngi-central.org

  3. Generic Image Processing • GenericProgrammingcomestotherescue • Threekey design techniques • Iteratorsdecoupledatastructures and algorithms • Functorsallowtoexchangepartsofcomputation • Genericalgorithms in termsofabstractiterators and functors • Enablingtechnologyofcompilersisthetemplate<> mechanism www.ngi-central.org

  4. Standard Template Library • STL is an implementationofgenericprogrammingconcepts • STL isavailablewith all compilerssinceitispartofthe C++ standard • STL isaround 10 yearsold and consideredmature • Educational material tolearngenericprogramming in generaland STL in particularisavailable www.ngi-central.org

  5. Example: RGB to Gray • Using STL style programming structRGBValue { unsignedcharred, green, blue; }; structRGBToGray { unsignedcharoperator()(constRGBValue& rgb) const { return 0.3*rgb.red + 0.59*rgb.green + 0.11*rgb.blue; } }; vector<RGBValue> rgb; vector<unsignedchar> gray; ... transform(rgb.begin(), rgb.end(), gray.begin(), RGBToGray()); www.ngi-central.org

  6. New:worksfor all types! Betterexample • Templated on thedatatype • <template class T> • struct RGBValue { • T red, green, blue; • }; • <template class T> • struct RGBToGray { • T operator()(const RGBValue<T>& rgb) const { • return 0.3*rgb.red + 0.59*rgb.green + 0.11*rgb.blue; • } • }; • vector<RGBValue<float> > rgb; • vector<float> gray; • ... • transform(rgb.begin(), rgb.end(), gray.begin(), RGBToGray<float>()); www.ngi-central.org

  7. STL leavesthingstodesire • STL isdesignedtoworkwith 1D data • Images areinherentlytwo(multi)dimensional • Somealgorithms do not needthedimensionality • Use STL in thiscase • Somealgorithmsneedthedimensionality • Cannotuse STL, needsomething different www.ngi-central.org

  8. Multidimensional Locators • A locatoris a multidimensional iterator • Logical extensionto an iterator Move theiterator ++it; --it; it+=100; it-=50; Move thelocator ++it.x; --it.y; it.x+=100; it.y-=50; www.ngi-central.org

  9. Algorithms change as well • // STL implementation • template<class IT, class F> • IT transform(IT First, IT Last, IT Dest, F Func) • { • for (; First != Last; ++First, ++Dest) • *Dest = Func(*First); • return (Dest); • } • // 2D implementation • template<class IT, class F> • IT transform(IT First, IT Last, IT Dest, F Func) • { • for (; First.y != Last.y; ++First.y, ++Dest.y) • for (; First.x != Last.x; ++First.x, ++Dest.x) • *Dest = Func(*First); • return (Dest); • } www.ngi-central.org

  10. What do wegain? • An algorithmliketransformreplacesmanyfunctions in traditional programming style • Itcan do this, becauseitistemplated on thefunction • We still needtoprogramthefunctionality, but decoupledfromnavigation • Itsavesustorewritetheloopsmanytimes • Bonus: thefunctionobjectscanbereused in completely different algorithmsas well • Itcan do this, becauseitistemplated on thedatatype (byiteratorindirection) • Itsavesustorewritethecompletethingforeachdatatype • The gainistremendous (time, functionality, flexibility) www.ngi-central.org

  11. NGI - Goals • Image Processing • Image -> Image • Image Analysis • Image -> Numbers • Generic Library • C++ • Templates • Source code • Independence of type • High Performance • nopenaltyforgenericcode • Portability • clean sourcecodefor easy portability www.ngi-central.org
