| --exposure-weight=0 |
Determines the contribution of pixels close to the ideal luminance of the blended image. A value of zero implies that all pixels contribute equally. |
| --saturation-weight=0 |
Determines the contribution of highly-saturated pixels. A value of zero implies that all pixels contribute equally. |
| --contrast-weight=1 |
Determines the contribution of pixels with high local contrast, which result from sharp edges. A value of one amplifies the contribution of these pixels. |
| --hard-mask |
The use of hard-masks increases the level of detail in the final image and reduces halos where the outlines of focal planes overlap, as it uses only information from the sharpest focal plane |
| --contrast-edge-scale=1 |
Determines the pre-processing function used prior to edge detection. A value of unity uses local-contrast-enhancement. |
| --gray-projector=l-star |
Determines the relative weight of the colour channels for greyscale conversion. By default, the colour channels are averaged, but if halos are visible in the EDOF image, 1-star can be set as the grey- projector instead (resulting in an emphasis of small contrast variations in highlights and shadows). The 1-star conversion is disabled by default, as it is more computationally expensive, but it can be activated within the scanner setup section of the GUI under the option “stacking method” (Fig. 2). |
