Threshold

Thresholding function to process the image by different thresholding methods. This function applies a fixed level of thresholding to a multi-channel array. It is typically used to obtain a binary image from a grayscale image or for noise removal, i.e., filtering out pixels with values that are too small or too large. This function currently supports the HB_VP_THRESH_TOZERO type of threshold.

Principle

Different threshold types have different processing effects, which are based on the following principles:

VP5threshold1

The principle expression formula is as follows:
