ITERATIVE RASTER-ORDER SEEDFILL
The basic method in the Vincent seedfill (aka reconstruction)
algorithm is simple. We describe here the situation for
binary seedfill. Pixels are sampled in raster order in
the seed image. If they are 4-connected to ON pixels
either directly above or to the left, and are not masked
out by the mask image, they are turned on (or remain on).
(Ditto for 8-connected, except you need to check 3 pixels
on the previous line as well as the pixel to the left
on the current line. This is extra computational work
for relatively little gain, so it is preferable
in most situations to use the 4-connected version.)
The algorithm proceeds from UR to LL of the image, and
then reverses and sweeps up from LL to UR.
These double sweeps are iterated until there is no change.
At this point, the seed has entirely filled the region it
is allowed to, as delimited by the mask image.
The grayscale seedfill is a straightforward generalization
of the binary seedfill, and is described in seedfillLowGray().
For some applications, the filled seed will later be OR'd
with the negative of the mask. This is used, for example,
when you flood fill into a 4-connected region of OFF pixels
and you want the result after those pixels are turned ON.
Note carefully that the mask we use delineates which pixels
are allowed to be ON as the seed is filled. We will call this
a "filling mask". As the seed expands, it is repeatedly
ANDed with the filling mask: s & fm. The process can equivalently
be formulated using the inverse of the filling mask, which
we will call a "blocking mask": bm = ~fm. As the seed
expands, the blocking mask is repeatedly used to prevent
the seed from expanding into the blocking mask. This is done
by set subtracting the blocking mask from the expanded seed:
s - bm. Set subtraction of the blocking mask is equivalent
to ANDing with the inverse of the blocking mask: s & (~bm).
But from the inverse relation between blocking and filling
masks, this is equal to s & fm, which proves the equivalence.
For efficiency, the pixels can be taken in larger units
for processing, but still in raster order. It is natural
to take them in 32-bit words. The outline of the work
to be done for 4-cc (not including special cases for boundary
words, such as the first line or the last word in each line)
is as follows. Let the filling mask be m. The
seed is to fill "under" the mask; i.e., limited by an AND
with the mask. Let the current word be w, the word
in the line above be wa, and the previous word in the
current line be wp. Let t be a temporary word that
is used in computation. Note that masking is performed by
w & m. (If we had instead used a "blocking" mask, we
would perform masking by the set subtraction operation,
w - m, which is defined to be w & ~m.)
The entire operation can be implemented with shifts,
logical operations and tests. For each word in the seed image
there are two steps. The first step is to OR the word with
the word above and with the rightmost pixel in wp (call it "x").
Because wp is shifted one pixel to its right, "x" is ORed
to the leftmost pixel of w. We then clip to the ON pixels in
the mask. The result is
t <-- (w | wa | x000... ) & m
We've now finished taking data from above and to the left.
The second step is to allow filling to propagate horizontally
in t, always making sure that it is properly masked at each
step. So if filling can be done (i.e., t is neither all 0s
nor all 1s), iteratively take:
t <-- (t | (t >> 1) | (t << 1)) & m
until t stops changing. Then write t back into w.
Finally, the boundary conditions require we note that in doing
the above steps:
(a) The words in the first row have no wa
(b) The first word in each row has no wp in that row
(c) The last word in each row must be masked so that
pixels don't propagate beyond the right edge of the
actual image. (This is easily accomplished by
setting the out-of-bound pixels in m to OFF.)

Input: pixd (<optional>; this can be null, equal to pixs, or different from pixs; 1 bpp) pixs (1 bpp seed) pixm (1 bpp filling mask) connectivity (4 or 8) Return: pixd always
Notes: (1) This is for binary seedfill (aka "binary reconstruction"). (2) There are 3 cases: (a) pixd == null (make a new pixd) (b) pixd == pixs (in-place) (c) pixd != pixs (3) If you know the case, use these patterns for clarity: (a) pixd = pixSeedfillBinary(NULL, pixs, ...); (b) pixSeedfillBinary(pixs, pixs, ...); (c) pixSeedfillBinary(pixd, pixs, ...); (4) The resulting pixd contains the filled seed. For some applications you want to OR it with the inverse of the filling mask. (5) The input seed and mask images can be different sizes, but in typical use the difference, if any, would be only a few pixels in each direction. If the sizes differ, the clipping is handled by the low-level function seedfillBinaryLow().

(2) There are occasions where it is useful not to permit the fill to go more than a certain distance into the mask. specifies the maximum horizontal distance allowed in the fill; does likewise in the vertical direction. (3) Operationally, the max "distance" allowed for the fill is a linear distance from the original seed, independent of the actual mask topology. (4) Another formulation of this problem, not implemented, would use the manhattan distance from the seed, as determined by a breadth-first search starting at the seed boundaries and working outward where the mask fg allows. How this might use the constraints of separate xmax and ymax is not clear.

Input: pixb (binary mask giving seed locations) pixm (8 bpp basin-type filling mask) delta (amount of seed value above mask) connectivity (4 or 8) Return: pixd (filled seed) if OK, null on error
Notes: (1) This fills from a seed within basins defined by a filling mask. The seed value(s) are greater than the corresponding filling mask value, and the result has the bottoms of the basins raised by the initial seed value. (2) The seed has value 255 except where pixb has fg (1), which are the seed 'locations'. At the seed locations, the seed value is the corresponding value of the mask pixel in pixm plus . If == 0, we return a copy of pixm. (3) The actual filling is done using the standard grayscale filling operation on the inverse of the mask and using the inverse of the seed image. After filling, we return the inverse of the filled seed. (4) As an example of use: pixm can describe a grayscale image of text, where the (dark) text pixels are basins of low values; pixb can identify the local minima in pixm (say, at the bottom of the basins); and delta is the amount that we wish to raise (lighten) the basins. We construct the seed (a.k.a marker) image from pixb, pixm and .

Input: pixs (1 bpp source) connectivity (4 or 8) outdepth (8 or 16 bits for pixd) boundcond (L_BOUNDARY_BG, L_BOUNDARY_FG) Return: pixd, or null on error
Notes: (1) This computes the distance of each pixel from the nearest background pixel. All bg pixels therefore have a distance of 0, and the fg pixel distances increase linearly from 1 at the boundary. It can also be used to compute the distance of each pixel from the nearest fg pixel, by inverting the input image before calling this function. Then all fg pixels have a distance 0 and the bg pixel distances increase linearly from 1 at the boundary. (2) The algorithm, described in Leptonica on the page on seed filling and connected components, is due to Luc Vincent. In brief, we generate an 8 or 16 bpp image, initialized with the fg pixels of the input pix set to 1 and the 1-boundary pixels (i.e., the boundary pixels of width 1 on the four sides set as either: * L_BOUNDARY_BG: 0 * L_BOUNDARY_FG: max where max = 0xff for 8 bpp and 0xffff for 16 bpp. Then do raster/anti-raster sweeps over all pixels interior to the 1-boundary, where the value of each new pixel is taken to be 1 more than the minimum of the previously-seen connected pixels (using either 4 or 8 connectivity). Finally, set the 1-boundary pixels using the mirrored method; this removes the max values there. (3) Using L_BOUNDARY_BG clamps the distance to 0 at the boundary. Using L_BOUNDARY_FG allows the distance at the image boundary to "float". (4) For 4-connected, one could initialize only the left and top 1-boundary pixels, and go all the way to the right and bottom; then coming back reset left and top. But we instead use a method that works for both 4- and 8-connected.

Input: pixs (8 bpp source) connectivity (4 or 8) Return: pixd, or null on error
Notes: (1) The raster/anti-raster method for implementing this filling operation was suggested by Ray Smith. (2) This takes an arbitrary set of nonzero pixels in pixs, which can be sparse, and spreads (extrapolates) the values to fill all the pixels in pixd with the nonzero value it is closest to in pixs. This is similar (though not completely equivalent) to doing a Voronoi tiling of the image, with a tile surrounding each pixel that has a nonzero value. All pixels within a tile are then closer to its "central" pixel than to any others. Then assign the value of the "central" pixel to each pixel in the tile. (3) This is implemented by computing a distance function in parallel with the fill. The distance function uses free boundary conditions (assumed maxval outside), and it controls the propagation of the pixels in pixd away from the nonzero (seed) values. This is done in 2 traversals (raster/antiraster). In the raster direction, whenever the distance function is nonzero, the spread pixel takes on the value of its predecessor that has the minimum distance value. In the antiraster direction, whenever the distance function is nonzero and its value is replaced by a smaller value, the spread pixel takes the value of the predecessor with the minimum distance value. (4) At boundaries where a pixel is equidistant from two nearest nonzero (seed) pixels, the decision of which value to use is arbitrary (greedy in search for minimum distance). This can give rise to strange-looking results, particularly for 4-connectivity where the L1 distance is computed from steps in N,S,E and W directions (no diagonals).

Notes: (1) This gives the actual local minima and maxima. A local minimum is a pixel whose surrounding pixels all have values at least as large, and likewise for a local maximum.

(2) The minima are found by starting with the erosion-and-equality approach of pixSelectedLocalExtrema. This is followed by a qualification step, where each c.c. in the resulting minimum mask is extracted, the pixels bordering it are located, and they are queried. If all of those pixels are larger than the value of that minimum, it is a true minimum and its c.c. is saved; otherwise the c.c. is rejected. Note that if a bordering pixel has the same value as the minimum, it must then have a neighbor that is smaller, so the component is not a true minimum.

Notes: (1) This selects those local 3x3 minima that are at least a specified distance from the nearest local 3x3 maxima, and v.v. for the selected set of local 3x3 maxima. The local 3x3 minima is the set of pixels whose value equals the value after a 3x3 brick erosion, and the local 3x3 maxima is the set of pixels whose value equals the value after a 3x3 brick dilation. (2) mindist is the minimum distance allowed between local 3x3 minima and local 3x3 maxima, in an 8-connected sense. mindist == 1 keeps all pixels found in step 1. mindist == 0 removes all pixels from each mask that are both a local 3x3 minimum and a local 3x3 maximum. mindist == 1 removes any local 3x3 minimum pixel that touches a local 3x3 maximum pixel, and likewise for the local maxima. To make the decision, visualize each local 3x3 minimum pixel as being surrounded by a square of size (2 * mindist + 1) on each side, such that no local 3x3 maximum pixel is within that square; and v.v.
