See figure 2.2.
Relational functions compare images to other images or to constants. They
accept any image or pair of images (provided they are the same size and
have the same number of bands -- their types may differ) and produce a
IM_BANDFMT_UCHAR
image with the same number of bands as the input
image, with 255 in every band element for which the condition is true and
0 elsewhere.
They may be combined with the boolean functions to form complex relational
conditions. Use im_max()
(or im_min()
) to find out if a
condition is true (or false) for a whole image.
