HybridBinarizer class

This class implements a local thresholding algorithm, which while slower than the GlobalHistogramBinarizer, is fairly efficient for what it does.

It is designed for high frequency images of barcodes with black data on white backgrounds. For this application, it does a much better job than a global blackpoint with severe shadows and gradients. However it tends to produce artifacts on lower frequency images and is therefore not a good general purpose binarizer for uses outside ZXing.

This class extends GlobalHistogramBinarizer, using the older histogram approach for 1D readers, and the newer local approach for 2D readers. 1D decoding using a per-row histogram is already inherently local, and only fails for horizontal gradients. We can revisit that problem later, but for now it was not a win to use local blocks for 1D.

This Binarizer is the default for the unit tests and the recommended class for library users.

Constructors

HybridBinarizer(LuminanceSource source)

Properties

blackMatrix BitMatrix
Calculates the final BitMatrix once for all requests. This could be called once from the constructor instead, but there are some advantages to doing it lazily, such as making profiling easier, and not doing heavy lifting when callers don't expect it.
no setteroverride
hashCode int
The hash code for this object.

height int

luminanceSource LuminanceSource
no setterinherited
runtimeType Type
A representation of the runtime type of the object.

width int

Methods

createBinarizer(LuminanceSource source) Binarizer
Creates a Binarizer with the same type as this Binarizer implementation, but with pristine state.
override
getBlackRow(int y, BitArray? row) BitArray
Converts the row y of luminance data to row(true means black).
inherited
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic
Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.
inherited
toString() String
A string representation of this object.
