Statistical
Estimator
|
Calculates the background as a single statistical
value based on analysis of the entire image.

Polynomial
Fit
|
Calculates the background as the value of a
polynomial fit to the entire image surface.
|
X, Y Terms
|
Enter the number of terms used for the Polynomial
Fit method. For example, 1 term for X fits a constant value in the
X (column number) direction, and 3 terms in Y fits a parabola in
the Y (row number) direction.

Constant
Value
|
Assigns a fixed value to the background,
independent of the image brightness.
