Sign of char is undefined and there are numerous places where its sign is important. Fixes tests with -funsigned-char. Closes gh-1110
To do ----- * add simple examples, adapt documentation on existing examples * add/check existing doc * adapting tests for each type of filter General remarks --------------- Basically these filters compute local histogram for each pixel. A histogram is built using a moving window in order to limit redundant computation. The path followed by the moving window is given hereunder ...-----------------------\ /--------------------------/ \-------------------------- ... We compare cmorph.dilate to this histogram based method to show how computational costs increase with respect to image size or structuring element size. This implementation gives better results for large structuring elements. The local histogram is updated at each pixel as the structuring element window moves by, i.e. only those pixels entering and leaving the structuring element update the local histogram. The histogram size is 8-bit (256 bins) for 8-bit images and 2 to 16-bit for 16-bit images depending on the maximum value of the image. The filter is applied up to the image border, the neighboorhood used is adjusted accordingly. The user may provide a mask image (same size as input image) where non zero values are the part of the image participating in the histogram computation. By default the entire image is filtered.
