roofDiff: Roof Edge Detection Statistics

Description

Compute the difference between two one-sided gradient estimates.

Usage

roofDiff(image, bandwidth, blur)

Value

A matrix where each entry is the maximum of the differences:

\(|\widehat{f}_{x+} - \widehat{f}_{x-}|\) and

\(|\widehat{f}_{y+} - \widehat{f}_{y-}|\) at each pixel location.

Arguments

image

A square matrix, no missing value allowed.

bandwidth

A positive integer that specifies the number of pixels to use in the local smoothing.

blur

If blur = TRUE, besides the conventional 2-D kernel function, a univariate kernel function is used to address the issue of blur.

Details

At each pixel, the second-order derivarives (i.e., \(f''_{xx}\), \(f''_{xy}\) and \(f''_{yy}\)) are estimated by a local quadratic kernel smoothing procedure. Next, the local neighborhood is first divided into two halves along the direction perpendicular to (\(\widehat{f}''_{xx}\), \(\widehat{f}''_{xy}\)). Then the one-sided estimates of \(f'_{x+}\) and \(f'_{x-}\) are obtained respectively by local linear kernel smoothing. The estimates of \(f'_{y+}\) and \(f'_{y-}\) are obtained by the same procedure except that the neighborhood is divided along the direction perpendicular to (\(\widehat{f}''_{xy}\), \(\widehat{f}''_{yy}\)).
