scipy.ndimage.morphology.binary_hit_or_miss

scipy.ndimage.morphology.binary_hit_or_miss(input, structure1=None, structure2=None, output=None, origin1=0, origin2=None)

Multi-dimensional binary hit-or-miss transform.

The hit-or-miss transform finds the locations of a given pattern inside the input image.

Parameters :

input : array_like (cast to booleans)

Binary image where a pattern is to be detected.

structure1 : array_like (cast to booleans), optional

Part of the structuring element to be fitted to the foreground (non-zero elements) of input. If no value is provided, a structure of square connectivity 1 is chosen.

structure2 : array_like (cast to booleans), optional

Second part of the structuring element that has to miss completely the foreground. If no value is provided, the complementary of structure1 is taken.

output : ndarray, optional

Array of the same shape as input, into which the output is placed. By default, a new array is created.

origin1 : int or tuple of ints, optional

Placement of the first part of the structuring element structure1, by default 0 for a centered structure.

origin2 : int or tuple of ints, optional

Placement of the second part of the structuring element structure2, by default 0 for a centered structure. If a value is provided for origin1 and not for origin2, then origin2 is set to origin1.

Returns :

output : ndarray

Hit-or-miss transform of input with the given structuring element (structure1, structure2).
