TIGER

Tiger (Texture/Image GenEatoR) loads a set of images and applies a filter multiple times. The result of the filter, can be descriped by the equation

\vec{y_{k+1}}(x,y) = \vec{f}(x,y,\vec{y_k}(x,y),\vec{p})

Command line options

This is a summary of all command line options. Values inside square brackets are optional. For details on how to type values, see Common types below.

—help[=string]
Prints usage information to either stdout, or to the chosen file.

—example[=string]
Generates source code for an example filter. The output is printed to either stdout, or to the chosen file.

—filter=string
Specifies the filter file. The filter is either a shared object, or C++ source file. A template filter can be extracted with the --example option. When a C++ source file is specified, it will be compiled into a shared object stored. The location of that object is controlled by the option --objdir.

—objdir=string
Specifies where to store any copiled binary, relative to the working directory.

—params[=Parameter,…]
Sets filter parameters. This is the content of $\vec{p}$ in the equation above.

—params-list[=string]
Lists all parameters availible for filter

—channels-list[=string]
Lists all channel names used by filter

—init=Channel mapping,…
Selects initial images. These images determines $\vec{y_{0}}$ in the equation above.

—dest=Channel mapping,…
Selects output images

—iterations=unsigned int
Selects the number of iterations to apply the filter

Common types

Channel mapping := [Channel:Filename]
A Channel mapping maps a channel to a given file. Use —channels-list to see a list of availible channels.

Parameter := [Name:Value]
Parameters control the algorithm used by filter. Use —params-list to see a list of parameters availible.

string
An UTF-8 encoded string

unsigned int
An integer in the range [0, 4294967295]
