%'sub_background': substract a sliding background to an image series %------------------------------------------------------------------------ % Method: %calculate the background image by sorting the luminosity of each point % over a sliding sub-sequence of 'nbaver_ima' images. % The luminosity value of rank 'rank' is selected as the % 'background'. rank=nbimages/2 gives the median value. Smaller values are appropriate % for a dense set of particles. The extrem value rank=1 gives the true minimum % luminosity, but it can be polluted by noise. % Organization of image indices: % The program is working on a series of images, % In the mode 'volume', nbfield2=1 (1 image at each level)and NbSlice (=nbfield_j) % Else nbfield2=nbfield_j =nbre of images in a burst (j index) % function GUI_config=sub_background(Param) % %%%%%%%%%%% GENERAL TO ALL SERIES ACTION FCTS %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % %OUTPUT % ParamOut: sets options in the GUI series.fig needed for the function % %INPUT: % In run mode, the input parameters are given as a Matlab structure Param copied from the GUI series. % In batch mode, Param is the name of the corresponding xml file containing the same information % when Param.Action.RUN=0 (as activated when the current Action is selected % in series), the function ouput paramOut set the activation of the needed GUI elements % % Param contains the elements:(use the menu bar command 'export/GUI config' in series to % see the current structure Param) % .InputTable: cell of input file names, (several lines for multiple input) % each line decomposed as {RootPath,SubDir,Rootfile,NomType,Extension} % .OutputSubDir: name of the subdirectory for data outputs % .OutputDirExt: directory extension for data outputs % .Action: .ActionName: name of the current activated function % .ActionPath: path of the current activated function % .ActionExt: fct extension ('.m', Matlab fct, '.sh', compiled Matlab fct % .RUN =0 for GUI input, =1 for function activation % .RunMode='local','background', 'cluster': type of function use % % .IndexRange: set the file or frame indices on which the action must be performed % .FieldTransform: .TransformName: name of the selected transform function % .TransformPath: path of the selected transform function % .InputFields: sub structure describing the input fields withfields % .FieldName: name(s) of the field % .VelType: velocity type % .FieldName_1: name of the second field in case of two input series % .VelType_1: velocity type of the second field in case of two input series % .Coord_y: name of y coordinate variable % .Coord_x: name of x coordinate variable % .ProjObject: %sub structure describing a projection object (read from ancillary GUI set_object) %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %======================================================================= % Copyright 2008-2018, LEGI UMR 5519 / CNRS UGA G-INP, Grenoble, France % http://www.legi.grenoble-inp.fr % Joel.Sommeria - Joel.Sommeria (A) legi.cnrs.fr % % This file is part of the toolbox UVMAT. % % UVMAT is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify % it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published % by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the license, % or (at your option) any later version. % % UVMAT is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, % but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of % MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
