Reverse Squared Euclidean Distance (RSED) computes the 2D maximal height surface created by placing an inverted parabola over each non-zero pixel of the input image, where the pixel's value is the height of the parabola. Viewed as a binary image (zero/not-zero) this is equivalent to buffering each non-zero input pixel by the square root of its value, in pixels.
| Usage | Returns | Image.rsedTransform(neighborhood, units) | Image |
| Argument | Type | Details | this: image | Image | The input image. |
neighborhood | Integer, default: 256 | Neighborhood size in pixels. |
units | String, default: "pixels" | The units of the neighborhood, currently only 'pixels' are supported. |
