public class JAIEdgeDetection
extends Transformer

An actor that does edge detection on a image. This is done by taking the image and separately convolving it with two different masks. The two results are squared, summed together, and square rooted to give the final image. The user may specify one, or both masks. A series of predefined masks are available for the user to use.

Field Detail

firstMask

public StringAttribute firstMask

The following two parameters are used to specify the masks used for edge detection. Traditionally one mask is used for horizontal edge detection, and one mask is used for vertical edge detection. The following predefined masks are available: Sobel horizontal mask. Sobel vertical mask. Roberts horizontal mask. Roberts vertical mask. Prewitt horizontal mask. Prewitt vertical mask. Frei and Chen horizontal mask. Frei and Chen vertical mask. A diagonal mask, which finds edges in the direction of a slash. A back diagonal mask, which finds edges in the direction of a backslash. A Transparent mask. Using this mask allows you to find edges in one direction and add them back to the original image. A mask of zeros. The default mask for the first choice is a Sobel horizontal mask. The default mask for the second choice is a Sobel vertical mask. The user can also specify mask(s). The dimensions of the mask(s) must be specified if the user chooses to do so.

secondMask

public StringAttribute secondMask

The mask used for edge detection.

See Also:

firstMask

userSpecifiedFirstMask

public Parameter userSpecifiedFirstMask

The first user specified mask, and its corresponding x and y dimensions. The Default mask is the transparent mask, and the default x and y dimensions is 3.

userSpecifiedSecondMask

public Parameter userSpecifiedSecondMask

The second user specified mask, and its corresponding x and y dimensions. The Default mask is the transparent mask, and the default x and y dimensions is 3.

Constructor Detail

JAIEdgeDetection

public JAIEdgeDetection(CompositeEntity container,
                        java.lang.String name)
                 throws IllegalActionException,
                        NameDuplicationException

Construct an actor with the given container and name.

Parameters:

container - The container.

name - The name of this actor.

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If the actor cannot be contained by the proposed container.

NameDuplicationException - If the container already has an actor with this name.

Method Detail

attributeChanged

public void attributeChanged(Attribute attribute)
                      throws IllegalActionException

Override the base class and set change private variables if the attribute corresponding to it has changed.

Overrides:

attributeChanged in class NamedObj

Parameters:

attribute - The attribute that changed.

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If the function is not recognized, or if a contained method throws it.

clone

public java.lang.Object clone(Workspace workspace)
                       throws java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException

Clone the actor into the specified workspace.

Overrides:

clone in class TypedAtomicActor

Parameters:

workspace - The workspace for the new attribute

Returns:

A new director.

Throws:

java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException - If a derived class contains an attribute that cannot be cloned.

See Also:

NamedObj.exportMoML(Writer, int, String), NamedObj.setDeferringChangeRequests(boolean)

fire

public void fire()
          throws IllegalActionException

Fire this actor. Output the edge detected image.

Specified by:

fire in interface Executable

Overrides:

fire in class AtomicActor<TypedIOPort>

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If a contained method throws it.
