Do not explicitly create outputarray instances applies here too.
Create cv mat c.
Possible parameter names for matrix cv mat.
In the load modify and save an image tutorial you have already learned how to write a matrix to an image file by using the cv imwrite function.
A new matrix of the specified size and specifed type will be allocated.
The same limitation as for inputarray.
To the contrary with c api where an output image had to be created by the developer an empty output mat can be supplied to each function.
If the format depth or channel order is different use mat convertto and cv cvtcolor to convert it before saving.
However for debugging purposes it s much more convenient to see the actual values.
Each implementation calls mat create for a destination matrix.
The class mat represents an n dimensional dense numerical single channel or multi channel array.
Here are the some popular ones.
It can be used to store real or complex valued vectors and matrices grayscale or color images voxel volumes vector fields point clouds tensors histograms though very high dimensional histograms may be better stored in a sparsemat.
Creating a mat object explicitly.
Or use the universal filestorage i o functions to save the image to xml or yaml format.
The name starts with a lower or upper case character hence a value between a z or a z.
Just like with inputarray opencv users should not care about outputarray they just pass mat vector t etc.
N dimensional dense array class.
This type is very similar to inputarray except that it is used for input output and output function parameters.
We can create a matrix with more than two dimensions.
If you want to make your function polymorphic i e.
There are many different ways to create cv mat object.
If it is not empty and has the correct size and type the method does nothing.
Int arr 3 4 3 2.
Using cv mat create nrows ncols type method or the similar constructor cv mat mat nrows ncols type fill value constructor.
Mat l 3 arr cv 8uc 1 scalar all 0.
This method allocates data for a matrix if it is empty.
The first character of the name can be followed by an infinite number of alpha numerical characters including characters like or.
Cv 8uc1 means 8 bit single channel matrix cv 32fc2 means 2 channel i e.
The parameters which you add to the cv mat must have a name which fits to the following rules.
You can do this using the operator of mat.
Type has the same meaning as in cvcreatemat function e g.
Complex floating point matrix etc.
