OpenCv; Small Code using Erode and Dilate

Small Code that reads pbm image, convert it into 1 channel image. Erodes it, dilates it and shows them

#include <float.h>

#include <limits.h>

#include <time.h>

#include <ctype.h>

#include <iostream>

#include "BlobResult.h"

#include "blob.h"

#ifdef _EiC

#define WIN32

#endif

using namespace std;

void main(void){

IplImage *inputImage = cvLoadImage( "0584.pbm", 1 );

IplImage *gray = cvCreateImage( cvSize(inputImage->width,inputImage->height), 8, 1 );

cvCvtColor( inputImage, gray, CV_BGR2GRAY );

IplImage*img = inputImage;

inputImage = gray;

::cvReleaseImage(&img);

cvNamedWindow( "orig", 1 );

cvShowImage( "orig", inputImage );

IplImage *outputImage;

IplImage *outputImage2;

outputImage = cvCreateImage( cvSize( inputImage->width, inputImage->height ), IPL_DEPTH_8U, 1 );

outputImage2 = cvCreateImage( cvSize( inputImage->width, inputImage->height ), IPL_DEPTH_8U, 1 );

cvErode(inputImage, outputImage, 0, 1);

cvNamedWindow( "erode", 1 );

cvShowImage( "erode", outputImage );

 

cvDilate(outputImage, outputImage2, 0, 2);

cvNamedWindow( "dilate", 1 );

cvShowImage( "dilate", outputImage2 );

cvReleaseImage(&outputImage);

cvReleaseImage(&outputImage2);

cvWaitKey();

connecting OpenCv with Matlab; Basic

It took much of the time, but I was able to connect OpenCv with matlab.

Much thanks to the

http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fx_files/21818/1/OpenCV_And_MEX_Files_quick_guide.pdf

I took the introductory program given in the http://www.cs.iit.edu/~agam/cs512/lect-notes/opencv-intro/opencv-intro.html

Also help from

Writing C Functions in Matlab form Jason Laska http://cnx.org/content/m12348/latest/

And modified it to run through matlab.

I named it showImageMt.cpp

So the Matlab code for compiling it was

mex showImageMt.cpp

But for that you have setup the file ‘mexopts.bat‘ as described in the above pdf . You might not able to find it by searching the matlab folder. You can find the path by running the following command in the Matlab

fullfile(prefdir,’mexopts.bat’)

The contents of the file could be see by type(fullfile(prefdir,’mexopts.bat’))

The C++ opencv code is following

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//
//showImageMt.cpp
//
// This is a simple, introductory OpenCV program. The program reads an
// image from a file, inverts it, and displays the result.
