[ITK] Binary Dilate/Erode filter

[jay nanavati]

Hi Matt,

I think your answer might be referring to my original question. But I could you please confirm my understanding on the painting of all of the SE points.

Thanks,
Jay

Hi Jay,

Yes, outputRegion.IsInside(idx) means that we only are changing the region we are processing.

HTH,

Hi Matt,

Thanks for the help on this, it makes sense now.

Also with regards to the following :

typename NeighborIndexContainer::const_iterator itIdx;
      NeighborIndexContainer & idxDifferenceSet =
        this->GetDifferenceSet(centerPixelCode);
      for ( itIdx = idxDifferenceSet.begin();
            itIdx != idxDifferenceSet.end();
            ++itIdx )
        {
        IndexType idx = tmpRegIndexIt.GetIndex() + *itIdx;
        if ( outputRegion.IsInside(idx) )
          {
          output->SetPixel(idx, backgroundValue);
          }
        }

Am I correct in understanding that the entire SE is being painted? and is the reason why this is done at least one to take care of an edge case where the radius of the SE is bigger than the surface being painted, which means just painting the surface points wont actually be correct?

Thanks,
Jay

Hi Jay,

The region will be padded by the radius. The cropping will possibly
shrink the region at the input image's boundaries.
