CImCombine:Max

The Max method selects the maximum pixel value at each point.

Syntax

CImage = CImCombine:Max( CImageSet )

where

CImageSet contains the collection of images to be combined.

CImage is a new image created by this method. On failure, nil is returned.

Each pixel in the output image is the maximum of values at the same location in all the images of the CImageSet. Normalization is used to remove offsets between the images prior to combining.

Example

Suppose a CImageSet named S exists. The following script combines the images by the Max method after normalizing their luminance by the median statistic computed inside the central 10% of the image:

C = CImCombine:new()	-- create a CImCombine object
R = NewRect(10,50,10,50)	-- central 10% of the image
C:SetRelRect( R )	-- specify CImage and CRect to measure
C:SetNormStat("median")	-- use the median as the normalization statistic
C:SetNormMethod("scale")	-- scale to normalize the image set
I = C:Max( S )	-- combine the image set and return a new image
I:Display()	-- show the new image
