Histogram.cdf#

property Histogram.cdf: ndarray#

Cumulative distribution function

Returns:

array of normalized cumulative histogram count values

Return type:

ndarray(N) or ndarray(N,P)

The cdf is the cumulative frequency normalized to the range 0 to 1. This is computed by dividing the cumulative frequency by the total number of pixels in each plane.

For a greyscale image this is a 1D array, for a multiplane (color) image this is a 2D array with the normalized cumulative histograms of each plane as columns.

Example:

>>> from machinevisiontoolbox import Image
>>> import numpy as np
>>> hist = Image.Read('flowers1.png').hist()

Changed in version 2.0.0: In earlier releases this method was named ncdf.
