void ComplexChannel::accept (  ChannelVisitor &  v  )  [virtual]

Calls visitComplexChannel() on the ChannelVisitor. Reimplemented from ChannelBase. Definition at line 235 of file ComplexChannel.C. References GVX_TRACE, and ChannelVisitor::visitComplexChannel(). Referenced by SceneUnderstanding::biasFor(), biasImage(), biasVC(), and getRaoJetMap().

void ComplexChannel::addSubChan (  nub::ref< ChannelBase >  ch, const char *  name = 0, const double  weight = 1.0, bool  exportOpts = false )

Add a subchannel. Parameters: ch  The channel to be added name  If not null, the channel's tagName will be set to this value weight  Equivalent to calling setSubchanTotalWeight() on the newly-added channel exportOpts  Whether to call exportOptions(MC_RECURSE) on the newly-added channel The channel's tagName is used for associative lookup. This is just a wrapper to ModelComponent::addSubComponent(), with some checking that the subcomponent indeed is a ChannelBase derivative, and some adjustment of our homogeneity (if the newly added subchannel has a different VisualFeature from ours, then be become heterogeneous). Definition at line 438 of file ComplexChannel.C.

Image< float > ComplexChannel::combineOutputs (   )  [protected, virtual]

This function is intended to be implemented by subclasses so that it recurses into any nested channels, mapping nested submaps into a linear sequence of indices. The output of this function is intended only to be human-readable (e.g. for labeling image displays), and does not have to follow any particular parseable syntax. Implements ChannelBase.

Set a fixed range of values for the raw output. By default, the range is set to [MAXNORMMIN .. MAXNORMMAX] at construction. If non-zero values are provided here, in getOutput() we will cumulate our various submaps, apply the provided range, apply spatial competition for salience, apply our total weight, and return the result. If a range [0.0 .. 0.0] is provided here, only spatial competition and weights will be applied, but the first step of applying the range will be skipped. This must be called before start().
