region op• Data kinds: region → region
• Call: fullseye.apply(img, "r3_rank_region", a=0.5, b=0.5) (the 2-D model is one image plus two scalar knobs a,b∈[0,1])
• HALCON equivalent: rank_region (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.*
Sweeping knob a (0.1 / 0.5 / 0.9, the other knob at its default):
▸ r3_rank_region: knob a sweep (docs site)
Sweeping knob b (0.1 / 0.5 / 0.9, the other knob at its default):
▸ r3_rank_region: knob b sweep (docs site)
Stages (the ops that come before → this op, left to right):
▸ r3_rank_region: stages (docs site)
On other images (synthetic scene / photo / coins. Top row: inputs, bottom row: their outputs. Knobs at default):
▸ r3_rank_region: other inputs (docs site)
Morphological rank operator on a region (HALCON's genuine `rank_region`: a generalisation that is neither pure erosion nor pure dilation).
> The detailed description below is the original text — the summary and the headings are translated.
`sz x sz(sz は 3, 5, 7 のいずれかを a で選ぶ)の窓の中で、領域に属する画素が number 個以上あれば出力を立てる。number はb(0〜1)を窓面積に対する割合として決める(number = sz*sz で収縮相当、number = 1` で膨張相当、中間ではランク/メディアンフィルタ相当の挙動になる)。
Border handling: treat everything outside the image as background (0) (measured; tools/impl2/border_probe.py).

• 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.
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.
