Filter: openfx.eu.cimg.ErodeBlur

Plugin Information

title: ErodeBlurCImg
media types: Video experimental
description: Performs an operation that looks like an erosion or a dilation by smoothing the image and then remapping the values of the result. The image is first smoothed by a triangle filter of width 2*abs(size). Now suppose the image is a 0-1 step edge (I=0 for x less than 0, I=1 for x greater than 0). The intensities are linearly remapped so that the value at x=size-0.5 is mapped to 0 and the value at x=size+0.5 is mapped to 1. This process usually works well for mask images (i.e. images which are either 0 or 1), but may give strange results on images with real intensities, where another Erode filter has to be used. CImg is a free, open-source library distributed under the CeCILL-C (close to the GNU LGPL) or CeCILL (compatible with the GNU GPL) licenses. It can be used in commercial applications (see http://cimg.eu).
