Calculating the monotony operation.
The operator ::monotony calculates the monotony operator. Thereby the points which are strictly smaller than the current grayvalue will be counted in the 8 neighborhood. This number will be entered into the output imaged.
If there is a strict maximum, the value 8 is returned; in case of a minimum or a plateau, the value 0 will be returned. A ridge or a slope will return the corresponding intermediate values.
The monotony operator is often used to prepare matching operations as it is invariant with regard to lightness modifications.
