xsp_morph_laplace — 2D edges op

Data kinds: imageimage

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

xsp_morph_laplace: input → output

*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.*

*The output is shown in a viridis-like pseudo-colour (dark purple = low, yellow = high) so that a field of quantities — distance, phase, orientation, depth — can be read.*

Sweeping knob a (0.1 / 0.5 / 0.9, the other knob at its default):

xsp_morph_laplace: knob a sweep (docs site)

*Knob b does not change the output (measured: identical at 0.1 / 0.5 / 0.9).*

On other images (synthetic scene / photo / coins. Top row: inputs, bottom row: their outputs. Knobs at default):

xsp_morph_laplace: other inputs (docs site)

*No colour (H,W,3) input is shown: this op treats the colour channel as a third spatial axis (it crosses channels). Call it per channel.*

Usage

Edge enhancement via the morphological Laplacian (`scipy.ndimage.morphological_laplace`).

> The detailed description below is the original text — the summary and the headings are translated.

`a は構造要素のサイズを 3, 5, 7, 9 に振る(size = 3 + 2*int(a*3))。b は未使用。グレースケール膨張と収縮の差の差というべき演算で、通常の(線形)ラプラシアンよりノイズに敏感な代わりに輪郭を鋭く拾う。符号付きの結果を signed01` で [0,1] に写像するので 0.5 が無変化(ゼロ交差)にあたる。
