G'MIC(1) General Commands Manual G'MIC(1) NAME gmic - Perform image processing operations using the G'MIC framework. HELP gmic: GREYC's Magic for Image Computing: command-line interface Version 3.1.6 (https://gmic.eu) Copyright (c) Since 2008, David TschumperlA(C) / GREYC / CNRS. (https://www.greyc.fr) 1. Usage ----- gmic [command1 [arg1_1,arg1_2,..]] .. [commandN [argN_1,argN_2,..]] 'gmic' is the open-source interpreter of the G'MIC language, a script-based programming language dedicated to the design of possibly complex image processing pipelines and operators. It can be used to convert, manipulate, filter and visualize image datasets made of one or several 1D/2D or 3D multi-spectral images. This reference documentation describes all the technical aspects of the G'MIC framework, in its current version 3.1.6. As a starting point, you may want to visit our detailed tutorial pages, at: https://gmic.eu/tutorial/ 2. Overall Context --------------- * At any time, G'MIC manages one list of numbered (and optionally named) pixel-based images, entirely stored in computer memory (uncompressed). * The first image of the list has index '0' and is denoted by '[0]'. The second image of the list is denoted by '[1]', the third by '[2]' and so on. * Negative indices are treated in a periodic way: '[-1]' refers to the last image of the list, '[-2]' to the penultimate one, etc. Thus, if the list has 4 images, '[1]' and '[-3]' both designate the second image of the list. * A named image may be also indicated by '[name]', if 'name' uses the character set '[a-zA-Z0-9_]' and does not start with a number. Image names can be set or reassigned at any moment during the processing pipeline (see command name for this purpose). * G'MIC defines a set of various commands and substitution mechanisms to allow the design of complex pipelines and operators managing this list of im- ages, in a very flexible way: You can insert or remove images in the list, re- arrange image order, process images (individually or grouped), merge image data together, display and output image files, etc. * Such a pipeline can define a new custom G'MIC command (stored in a user command file), and re-used afterwards as a regular command, in a larger pipeline if necessary. 3. Image Definition and Terminology -------------------------------- * In G'MIC, each image is modeled as a 1D, 2D, 3D or 4D array of scalar values, uniformly discretized on a rectangular/parallelepipedic domain. * The four dimensions of this array are respectively denoted by: - 'width', the number of image columns (size along the 'x-axis'). - 'height', the number of image rows (size along the 'y-axis'). - 'depth', the number of image slices (size along the 'z-axis'). The depth is equal to '1' for usual color or grayscale 2D images. - 'spectrum', the number of image channels (size along the 'c-axis'). The spectrum is respectively equal to '3' and '4' for usual 'RGB' and 'RGBA' color images. * There are no hard limitations on the size of the image along each di- mension. For instance, the number of image slices or channels can be of arbitrary size within the limits of the available memory. * The 'width', 'height' and 'depth' of an image are considered as spatial dimensions, while the 'spectrum' has a multi-spectral meaning. Thus, a 4D image in G'MIC should be most often regarded as a 3D dataset of multi-spectral voxels. Most of the G'MIC commands will stick with this idea (e.g. command blur blurs images only along the spatial 'xyz'-axes). * G'MIC stores all the image data as buffers of 'float' values (32 bits, value range '[-3.4E38,+3.4E38]'. It performs all its image processing operations with floating point numbers. Each image pixel takes then 32bits/channel (except if double-precision buffers have been enabled during the compilation of the software, in which case 64bits/channel can be the de- fault). * Considering 'float'-valued pixels ensure to keep the numerical precision when executing image processing pipelines. For image in- put/output operations, you may want to prescribe the image datatype to be different than 'float' (like 'bool', 'char', 'int', etc.). This is possible by specifying it as a file option when using I/O commands. (see section Input/Output Properties to learn more about file options). 4. Items of a Processing Pipeline ------------------------------ * In G'MIC, an image processing pipeline is described as a sequence of items separated by the space character. Such items are interpreted and executed from the left to the right. For instance, the expression: filename.jpg blur 3,0 sharpen 10 resize 200%,200% output file_out.jpg defines a valid pipeline composed of nine G'MIC items. * Each G'MIC item is a string that is either a command, a list of command arguments, a filename or a special input string. * Escape characters '' and double quotes '"' can be used to define items containing spaces or other special characters. For instance, the two strings 'single item' and '"single item"' both define the same single item, with a space in it. 5. Input Data Items ---------------- * If a specified G'MIC item appears to be an existing filename, the corresponding image data are loaded and inserted at the end of the image list (which is equivalent to the use of 'input filename'). * Special filenames '-' and '-.ext' stand for the standard input/output streams, optionally forced to be in a specific 'ext' file format (e.g. '-.jpg' or '-.png'). * The following special input strings may be used as G'MIC items to cre- ate and insert new images with prescribed values, at the end of the image list: - '[selection]' or '[selection]xN': Insert 1 or N copies of already existing images. 'selection' may represent one or several images (see section Command Items and Selections to learn more about selec- tions). - 'width[%],_height[%],_depth[%],_spectrum[%],_values[xN]': Insert one or N images with specified size and values (adding '%' to a dimen- sion means "percentage of the size along the same axis", taken from the last image '[-1]'). Any specified dimension can be also written as '[image]', and is then set to the size (along the same axis) of the existing specified image '[image]'. 'values' can be either a sequence of numbers separated by commas ',', or a mathematical expres- sion, as e.g. in input item '256,256,1,3,[x,y,128]' which creates a '256x256' RGB color image with a spatial shading on the red and green channels. (see section Mathematical Expressions to learn more about mathematical expressions). - '(v1,v2,..)[xN]': Insert one or 'N' new images from specified prescribed values. Value separator inside parentheses can be ',' (column separator), ';' (row separator), '/' (slice separator) or '^' (channel separator). For instance, expression '(1,2,3;4,5,6;7,8,9)' creates a 3x3 matrix (scalar image), with values running from 1 to 9. - '('string'[:delimiter])[xN]': Insert one or N new images from specified string, by filling the images with the character codes compos- ing the string. When specified, 'delimiter' tells about the main orientation of the image. Delimiter can be 'x' (eq. to ',' which is the default), 'y' (eq. to ';'), 'z' (eq. to '/') or 'c' (eq. to '^'). When specified delimiter is ',', ';', '/' or '^', the expression is actually equivalent to '({'string'[:delimiter]})[xN]' (see section Substitution Rules for more information on the syntax). - '0[xN]': Insert one or N new 'empty' images, containing no pixel data. Empty images are used only in rare occasions. * Input item 'name=value' declares a new variable 'name', or assign a new string value to an existing variable. Variable names must use the character set '[a-zA-Z0-9_]' and cannot start with a number. * A variable definition is always local to the current command except when it starts by the underscore character '_'. In that case, it becomes also accessible by any command invoked outside the current command scope (global variable). * If a variable name starts with two underscores '__', the global variable is also shared among different threads and can be read/set by commands running in parallel (see command parallel for this purpose). Otherwise, it remains local to the thread that defined it. * Numerical variables can be updated with the use of these special oper- ators: '+=' (addition), '-=' (subtraction), '*=' (multiplication), '/=' (division), '%=' (modulo), '&=' (bitwise and), '|=' (bitwise or), '^=' (power), '<<=' and '>>' (bitwise left and right shifts). For instance, 'foo=1' 'foo+=3'. * Input item 'name.=string' appends specified 'string' at the end of variable 'name'. * Input item 'name..=string' prepends specified 'string' at the beginning of variable 'name'. * Multiple variable assignments and updates are allowed, with expres- sions: 'name1,name2,...,nameN=value' or 'name1,name2,...,nameN=value1,value2, ...,valueN' where assignment operator '=' can be replaced by one of the allowed operators (e.g. '+='). * Variables usually store numbers or strings. Use command store to assign variables from image data (and syntax 'input $variable' to bring them back on the image list afterwards). 6. Command Items and Selections ---------------------------- * A G'MIC item that is not a filename nor a special input string designates a 'command' most of the time. Generally, commands perform image processing operations on one or several available images of the list. * Reccurent commands have two equivalent names ('regular' and 'short'). For instance, command names 'resize' and 'r' refer to the same image resizing action. * A G'MIC command may have mandatory or optional arguments. Command arguments must be specified in the next item on the command line. Commas ', ' are used to separate multiple arguments of a single command, when re- quired. * The execution of a G'MIC command may be restricted only to a subset of the image list, by appending '[selection]' to the command name. Examples of valid syntaxes for 'selection' are: - 'command[-2]': Apply command only on the penultimate image '[-2]' of the list. - 'command[0,1,3]': Apply command only on images '[0]', '[1]' and '[3]'. - 'command[3-6]': Apply command only on images '[3]' to '[6]' (i.e, '[3]', '[4]', '[5]' and '[6]'). - 'command[50%-100%]': Apply command only on the second half of the image list. - 'command[0,-4--1]': Apply command only on the first image and the last four images. - 'command[0-9:3]': Apply command only on images '[0]' to '[9]', with a step of 3 (i.e. on images '[0]', '[3]', '[6]' and '[9]'). - 'command[0-9:25%]': Apply command only on images '[0]' to '[9]', with a step of 25% (i.e. on images '[0]', '[3]', '[6]' and '[9]'). - 'command[0--1:2]': Apply command only on images of the list with even indices. - 'command[0,2-4,50%--1]': Apply command on images '[0]', '[2]', '[3]', '[4]' and on the second half of the image list. - 'command[^0,1]': Apply command on all images except the first two. - 'command[name1,name2]': Apply command on named images 'name1' and 'name2'. * Indices in selections are always sorted in increasing order, and du- plicate indices are discarded. For instance, selections '[3-1,1-3]' and '[1,1, 1,3,2]' are both equivalent to '[1-3]'. If you want to repeat a single command multiple times on an image, use a 'repeat..done' loop instead. Inverting the order of images for a command is achieved by explicitly inverting the order of the images in the list, with command 'reverse[selection]'. * Command selections '[-1]', '[-2]' and '[-3]' are so often used they have their own shortcuts, respectively '.', '..' and '...'. For instance, command 'blur..' is equivalent to 'blur[-2]'. These shortcuts work also when specifying command arguments. * G'MIC commands invoked without '[selection]' are applied on all images of the list, i.e. the default selection is '[0--1]' (except for command input whose default selection is '[-1]''). * Prepending a single hyphen '-' to a G'MIC command is allowed. This may be useful to recognize command items more easily in a one-liner pipeline (typically invoked from a shell). * A G'MIC command prepended with a plus sign '+' does not act in-place but inserts its result as one or several new images at the end of the image list. * There are two different types of commands that can be run by the G'MIC interpreter: - Built-in commands are the hard-coded functionalities in the interpreter core. They are thus compiled as binary code and run fast, most of the time. Omitting an argument when invoking a built-in command is not permitted, except if all following arguments are also omitted. For in- stance, invoking 'plasma 10,,5' is invalid but 'plasma 10' is correct. - Custom commands, are defined as G'MIC pipelines of built-in or other custom commands. They are parsed by the G'MIC interpreter, and thus run a bit slower than built-in commands. Omitting arguments when invoking a custom command is permitted. For instance, expressions 'flower ,,,100,,2' or 'flower ,' are correct. * Most of the existing commands in G'MIC are actually defined as custom commands. * A user can easily add its own custom commands to the G'MIC interpreter (see section Adding Custom Commands for more details). New built-in commands cannot be added (unless you modify the G'MIC interpreter source code and recompile it). 7. Input/Output Properties ----------------------- * G'MIC is able to read/write most of the classical image file formats, including: - 2D grayscale/color files: '.png', '.jpeg', '.gif', '.pnm', '.tif', '.bmp', ... - 3D volumetric files: '.dcm', '.hdr', '.nii', '.cube', '.pan', '.inr', '.pnk', ... - Video files: '.mpeg', '.avi', '.mp4', '.mov', '.ogg', '.flv', ... - Generic text or binary data files: '.gmz', '.cimg', '.cimgz', 'flo', 'ggr', 'gpl', '.dlm', '.asc', '.pfm', '.raw', '.txt', '.h'. - 3D mesh files: '.off', '.obj'. * When dealing with color images, G'MIC generally reads, writes and dis- plays data using the usual sRGB color space. * When loading a '.png' and '.tiff' file, the bit-depth of the input image(s) is returned to the status. * G'MIC is able to manage 3D objects that may be read from files or generated by G'MIC commands. A 3D object is stored as a one-column scalar image containing the object data, in the following order: { magic_number; sizes; vertices; primitives; colors; opacities }. These 3D representations can be then processed as regular images (see command split3d for accessing each of these 3D object data separately). * Be aware that usual file formats may be sometimes not adapted to store all the available image data, since G'MIC uses float-valued image buffers. For instance, saving an image that was initially loaded as a 16bits/channel image, as a '.jpg' file will result in a loss of information. Use the G'MIC-specific file extension '.gmz' to ensure that all data precision is preserved when saving images. * Sometimes, file options may/must be set for file formats: - Video files: Only sub-frames of an image sequence may be loaded, using the input expression 'filename.ext,[first_frame[,last_frame[, step]]]'. Set 'last_frame==-1' to tell it must be the last frame of the video. Set 'step' to '0' to force an opened video file to be opened/closed. Output framerate and codec can be also set by using the output expression 'filename.avi,_fps,_codec,_keep_open' where 'keep_open' can be { 0 | 1 }. 'codec' is a 4-char string (see http://www.fourcc.org/codecs.php ) or '0' for the default codec. 'keep_open' tells if the output video file must be kept open for appending new frames afterwards. - '.cimg[z]' files: Only crops and sub-images of .cimg files can be loaded, using the input expressions 'filename.cimg,N0,N1', 'filename.cimg,N0,N1,x0,x1', 'filename.cimg,N0,N1,x0,y0,x1,y1', 'filename.cimg,N0,N1,x0,y0,z0,x1,y1,z1' or 'filename.cimg,N0,N1,x0,y0, z0,c0,x1,y1,z1,c1'. Specifying '-1' for one coordinates stands for the maximum possible value. Output expression 'filename.cimg[z][,datatype]' can be used to force the output pixel type. 'datatype' can be { auto | bool | uint8 | int8 | uint16 | int16 | uint32 | int32 | uint64 | int64 | float32 | float64 }. - '.raw' binary files: Image dimensions and input pixel type may be specified when loading '.raw' files with input expression 'filename.raw[,datatype][,width][,height[,depth[,dim[,offset]]]]]'. If no dimensions are specified, the resulting image is a one-column vector with maximum possible height. Pixel type can also be specified with the out- put expression 'filename.raw[,datatype]'. 'datatype' can be the same as for '.cimg[z]' files. - '.yuv' files: Image dimensions must be specified when loading, and only sub-frames of an image sequence may be loaded, using the input expression 'filename.yuv,width,height[,chroma_subsampling[,first_frame[, last_frame[,step]]]'. 'chroma_subsampling' can be { 420 | 422 | 444 }. When saving, chroma subsampling mode can be specified with output expression 'filename.yuv[,chroma_subsampling]'. - '.tiff' files: Only sub-images of multi-pages tiff files can be loaded, using the input expression 'file- name.tif,_first_frame,_last_frame, _step'. Output expression 'filename.tiff,_datatype,_compression, _force_multipage,_use_bigtiff' can be used to specify the output pixel type, as well as the compression method. 'datatype' can be the same as for '.cimg[z]' files. 'compression' can be { none (default) | lzw | jpeg }. 'force_multipage' can be { 0=no (default) | 1=yes }. 'use_bigtiff' can be { 0=no | 1=yes (default) }. - '.pdf' files: When loading a file, the rendering resolution can be specified using the input expression 'filename.pdf,resolution', where 'resolution' is an unsigned integer value. - '.gif' files: Animated gif files can be saved, using the input expression 'filename.gif,fps>0,nb_loops'. Specify 'nb_loops=0' to get an infinite number of animation loops (this is the default behavior). - '.jpeg' files: The output quality may be specified (in %), using the output expression 'filename.jpg,30' (here, to get a 30% qual- ity output). '100' is the default. - '.mnc' files: The output header can set from another file, using the output expression 'filename.mnc,header_template.mnc'. - '.pan', '.cpp', '.hpp', '.c' and '.h' files: The output datatype can be selected with output expression 'filename[,datatype]'. 'datatype' can be the same as for '.cimg[z]' files. - '.gmic' files: These filenames are assumed to be G'MIC custom commands files. Loading such a file will add the commands it defines to the interpreter. Debug information can be enabled/disabled by the input ex- pression 'filename.gmic[,add_debug_info]' where 'debug_info' can be { 0=false | 1=true }. - Inserting 'ext:' on the beginning of a filename (e.g. 'jpg:filename') forces G'MIC to read/write the file as it would have been done if it had the specified extension '.ext'. * Some input/output formats and options may not be supported, depending on the configuration flags that have been set during the build of the G'MIC software. 8. Substitution Rules ------------------ * G'MIC items containing '$' or '{}' are substituted before being interpreted. Use these substituting expressions to access various data from the interpreter environment. * '$name' and '${name}' are both substituted by the value of the specified named variable (set previously by the item 'name=value'). If this variable has not been already set, the expression is substituted by the highest positive index of the named image '[name]'. If no image has this name, the expression is substituted by the value of the OS environment variable with same name (it may be thus an empty string if it is not defined). * The following reserved variables are predefined by the G'MIC inter- preter: - '$!': The current number of images in the list. - '$>' and '$<': The increasing/decreasing index of the latest (currently running) 'repeat...done' loop. '$>' goes from '0' (first loop iteration) to 'nb_iterations - 1' (last iteration). '$<' does the opposite. - '$/': The current call stack. Stack items are separated by slashes '/'. - '$|': The current value (expressed in seconds) of a millisecond precision timer. - '$^': The current verbosity level. - '$_cpus': The number of computation cores available on your ma- chine. - '$_flags': The list of enabled flags when G'MIC interpreter has been compiled. - '$_host': A string telling about the host running the G'MIC interpreter (e.g. 'cli' or 'gimp'). - '$_os': A string describing the running operating system. - '$_path_rc': The path to the G'MIC folder used to store configuration files (its value is OS-dependent). - '$_path_user': The path to the G'MIC user file '.gmic' or 'user.gmic' (its value is OS-dependent). - '$_path_commands': A list of all imported command files (stored as an image list). - '$_pid': The current process identifier, as an integer. - '$_pixeltype': The type of image pixels (default: 'float32'). - '$_prerelease': For pre-releases, the date of the pre-release as 'yymmdd'. For stable releases, this variable is set to '0'. - '$_version': A 3-digits number telling about the current version of the G'MIC interpreter (e.g. '316'). - '$_vt100': Set to '1' if colored text output is allowed on the console. Otherwise, set to '0'. * '$$name' and '$${name}' are both substituted by the G'MIC script code of the specified named 'custom command', or by an empty string if no custom command with specified name exists. * '${"-pipeline"}' is substituted by the status value after the execution of the specified G'MIC pipeline (see command status). Expression '${}' thus stands for the current status value. * '{``string}' (starting with two backquotes) is substituted by a double-quoted version of the specified string. * '{/string}' is substituted by the escaped version of the specified string. * '{'string'[:delimiter]}' (between single quotes) is substituted by the sequence of character codes that composes the specified string, sepa- rated by specified delimiter. Possible delimiters are ',' (default), ';', '/', '^' or ' '. For instance, item '{'foo'}' is substituted by '102,111,111' and '{'foo':;}' by '102;111;111'. * '{image,feature[:delimiter]}' is substituted by a specific feature of the image '[image]'. 'image' can be either an image number or an image name. It can be also eluded, in which case, the last image '[-1]' of the list is considered for the requested feature. Specified 'feature' can be one of: - 'b': The image basename (i.e. filename without the folder path nor extension). - 'f': The image folder name. - 'n': The image name or filename (if the image has been read from a file). - 't': The text string from the image values regarded as character codes. - 'x': The image extension (i.e the characters after the last '.' in the image name). - '^': The sequence of all image values, separated by commas ', '. - '@subset': The sequence of image values corresponding to the specified subset, and separated by commas ','. - Any other 'feature' is considered as a mathematical expression associated to the image '[image]' and is substituted by the result of its evaluation (float value). For instance, expression '{0, w+h}' is substituted by the sum of the width and height of the first im- age (see section Mathematical Expressions for more details). If a mathematical expression starts with an underscore '_', the resulting value is truncated to a readable format. For instance, item '{_pi}' is substituted by '3.14159' (while '{pi}' is substituted by '3.141592653589793'). - A 'feature' delimited by backquotes is replaced by a string whose character codes correspond to the list of values resulting from the evaluation of the specified mathematical expression. For instance, item '{`[102,111, 111]`}' is substituted by 'foo' and item '{`vector8(65)`}' by 'AAAAAAAA'. * '{*}' is substituted by the visibility state of the instant display window '#0' (can be { 0=closed | 1=visible }. * '{*[index],feature1,...,featureN[:delimiter]}' is substituted by a specific set of features of the instant display window '#0' (or '#index', if specified). Requested 'features' can be: - 'u': screen width (actually independent on the window size). - 'v': screen height (actually independent on the window size). - 'uv': screen width x screen height. - 'd': window width (i.e. width of the window widget). - 'e': window height (i.e. height of the window widget). - 'de': window width x window height. - 'w': display width (i.e. width of the display area managed by the window). - 'h': display height (i.e. height of the display area managed by the window). - 'wh': display width x display height. - 'i': X-coordinate of the display window. - 'j': Y-coordinate of the display window. - 'n': current normalization type of the instant display. - 't': window title of the instant display. - 'x': X-coordinate of the mouse position (or -1, if outside the display area). - 'y': Y-coordinate of the mouse position (or -1, if outside the display area). - 'b': state of the mouse buttons { 1=left-but. | 2=right-but. | 4=middle-but. }. - 'o': state of the mouse wheel. - 'k': decimal code of the pressed key if any, 0 otherwise. - 'c': boolean (0 or 1) telling if the instant display has been closed recently. - 'r': boolean telling if the instant display has been resized recently. - 'm': boolean telling if the instant display has been moved re- cently. - Any other 'feature' stands for a keycode name (in capital letters), and is substituted by a boolean describing the current key state { 0=pressed | 1=released }. - You can also prepend a hyphen '-' to a 'feature' (that supports it) to flush the corresponding event immediately after reading its state (works for keys, mouse and window events). * Item substitution is never performed in items between double quotes. One must break the quotes to enable substitution if needed, as in '"3+8 kg = "{3+8}" kg"'. Using double quotes is then a convenient way to disable the substitutions mechanism in items, when necessary. * One can also disable the substitution mechanism on items outside dou- ble quotes, by escaping the '{', '}' or '$' characters, as in '3+4 doesn't evaluate'. 9. Mathematical Expressions ------------------------ * G'MIC has an embedded mathematical parser, used to evaluate (possibly complex) math expressions specified inside braces '{}', or formulas in commands that may take one as an argument (e.g. fill or eval). * When the context allows it, a formula is evaluated for each pixel of the selected images (e.g. fill or eval). * A math expression may return a scalar or a vector-valued result (with a fixed number of components). The mathematical parser understands the following set of functions, oper- ators and variables: ## Usual operators: '||' (logical or), '&&' (logical and), '|' (bitwise or), '&' (bitwise and), '!=', '==', '<=', '>=', '<', '>', '<<' (left bitwise shift), '>>' (right bitwise shift), '-', '+', '*', '/', '%' (modulo), '^' (power), '!' (logical not), '~' (bitwise not), '++', '--', '+=', '-=', '*=', '/=', '%=', '&=', '|=', '^=', '>>', '<<=' (in-place operators). ## Usual math functions: 'abs()', 'acos()', 'acosh()', 'arg()', 'arg0()', 'argkth()', 'argmax()', 'argmaxabs()', 'argmin()', 'argminabs()', 'asin()', 'asinh()', 'atan()', 'atan2()', 'atanh()', 'avg()', 'bool()', 'cbrt()', 'ceil()', 'cos()', 'cosh()', 'cut()', 'deg2rad()', 'erf()', 'erfinv()', 'exp()', 'fact()', 'fibo()', 'floor()', 'gauss()', 'gcd()', 'int()', 'isnan()', 'isnum()', 'isinf()', 'isint()', 'isbool()', 'isexpr()', 'isfile()', 'isdir()', 'isin()', 'kth()', 'log()', 'log2()', 'log10()', 'max()', 'maxabs()', 'med()', 'min()', 'minabs()', 'narg()', 'prod()', 'rad2deg()', 'rol()' (left bit rotation), 'ror()' (right bit rotation), 'round()', 'sign()', 'sin()', 'sinc()', 'sinh()', 'sqrt()', 'std()', 'srand(_seed)', 'sum()', 'tan()', 'tanh()', 'var()', 'xor()'. * 'cov(A,B,_avgA,_avgB)' estimates the covariance between vectors 'A' and 'B' (estimated averages of these vectors may be specified as arguments). * 'mse(A,B)' returns the mean-squared error between vectors 'A' and 'B'. * 'atan2(y,x)' is the version of 'atan()' with two arguments 'y' and 'x' (as in C/C++). * 'permut(k,n,with_order)' computes the number of permutations of 'k' objects from a set of 'n' objects. * 'gauss(x,_sigma,_is_normalized)' returns 'exp(-x^2/(2*s^2))/(is_normalized?sqrt(2*pi*sigma^2):1)'. * 'cut(value,min,max)' returns 'value' if it is in range '[min, max]', or 'min' or 'max' otherwise. * 'narg(a_1,...,a_N)' returns the number of specified arguments (here, 'N'). * 'arg(i,a_1,..,a_N)' returns the 'i'-th argument 'a_i'. * 'isnum()', 'isnan()', 'isinf()', 'isint()', 'isbool()' test the type of the given number or expression, and return '0' (false) or '1' (true). * 'isfile('path')' (resp. 'isdir('path')') returns '0' (false) or '1' (true) whether its string argument is a path to an existing file (resp. to a directory) or not. * 'isvarname('str')' returns '0' (false) or '1' (true) whether its string argument would be a valid to name a variable or not. * 'isin(v,a_1,...,a_n)' returns '0' (false) or '1' (true) whether the first argument 'v' appears in the set of other argument 'a_i'. * 'inrange(value,m,M,include_m,include_M)' returns '0' (false) or '1' (true) whether the specified value lies in range '[m,M]' or not ('include_m' and 'includeM' tells how boundaries 'm' and 'M' are considered). * 'argkth()', 'argmin()', 'argmax()', 'argminabs()', 'argmaxabs()'', 'avg()', 'kth()', 'min()', 'max()', 'minabs()', 'maxabs()', 'med()', 'prod()', 'std()', 'sum()' and 'var()' can be called with an arbitrary number of scalar/vector arguments. * 'vargkth()', 'vargmin()', 'vargmax()', 'vargminabs()', 'vargmaxabs()', 'vavg()', 'vkth()', 'vmin()', 'vmax()', 'vminabs()', 'vmaxabs()', 'vmed()', 'vprod()', 'vstd()', 'vsum()' and 'vvar()' are the versions of the previous function with vector-valued arguments. * 'round(value,rounding_value,direction)' returns a rounded value. 'direction' can be { -1=to-lowest | 0=to-nearest | 1=to-highest }. * 'lerp(a,b,t)' returns 'a*(1-t)+b*t'. * 'swap(a,b)' swaps the values of the given arguments. ## Variable names: Variable names below are pre-defined. They can be overridden. * 'l': length of the associated list of images. * 'k': index of the associated image, in '[0,l-1]'. * 'w': width of the associated image, if any ('0' otherwise). * 'h': height of the associated image, if any ('0' otherwise). * 'd': depth of the associated image, if any ('0' otherwise). * 's': spectrum of the associated image, if any ('0' otherwise). * 'r': shared state of the associated image, if any ('0' otherwise). * 'wh': shortcut for width x height. * 'whd': shortcut for width x height x depth. * 'whds': shortcut for width x height x depth x spectrum (i.e. number of image values). * 'im', 'iM', 'ia', 'iv', 'id', 'is', 'ip', 'ic', 'in': Respectively the minimum, maximum, average, variance, standard deviation, sum, product, median value and L2-norm of the associated image, if any ('0' otherwise). * 'xm', 'ym', 'zm', 'cm': The pixel coordinates of the minimum value in the associated image, if any ('0' otherwise). * 'xM', 'yM', 'zM', 'cM': The pixel coordinates of the maximum value in the associated image, if any ('0' otherwise). * All these variables are considered as constant values by the math parser (for optimization purposes) which is indeed the case most of the time. Anyway, this might not be the case, if function 'resize(#ind,..)' is used in the math expression. If so, it is safer to invoke functions 'l()', 'w(_#ind)', 'h(_#ind)', ... 's(_#ind)' and 'in(_#ind)' instead of the corresponding named variables. * 'i': current processed pixel value (i.e. value located at '(x,y,z, c)') in the associated image, if any ('0' otherwise). * 'iN': N-th channel value of current processed pixel (i.e. value located at '(x,y,z,N)' in the associated image, if any ('0' otherwise). 'N' must be an integer in range '[0,9]'. * 'R', 'G', 'B' and 'A' are equivalent to 'i0', 'i1', 'i2' and 'i3' respectively. * 'I': current vector-valued processed pixel in the associated image, if any ('0' otherwise). The number of vector components is equal to the number of image channels (e.g. 'I' = '[ R,G,B ]' for a 'RGB' image). * You may add '#ind' to any of the variable name above to retrieve the information for any numbered image '[ind]' of the list (when this makes sense). For instance 'ia#0' denotes the average value of the first image of the list). * 'x': current processed column of the associated image, if any ('0' otherwise). * 'y': current processed row of the associated image, if any ('0' otherwise). * 'z': current processed slice of the associated image, if any ('0' otherwise). * 'c': current processed channel of the associated image, if any ('0' otherwise). * 't': thread id when an expression is evaluated with multiple threads ('0' means master thread). * 'n': maximum number of threads when expression is evaluated in parallel (so that 't' goes from '0' to 'n-1'). * 'e': value of e, i.e. '2.71828...'. * 'pi': value of pi, i.e. '3.1415926...'. * 'u': a random value between '[0,1]', following a uniform distribution. * 'g': a random value, following a gaussian distribution of variance 1 (roughly in '[-6,6]'). * 'interpolation': value of the default interpolation mode used when reading pixel values with the pixel access operators (i.e. when the interpolation argument is not explicitly specified, see below for more details on pixel access operators). Its initial default value is '0'. * 'boundary': value of the default boundary conditions used when reading pixel values with the pixel access operators (i.e. when the boundary condition argument is not explicitly specified, see below for more details on pixel access operators). Its initial default value is '0'. * The last image of the list is always associated to the evaluations of 'expressions', e.g. G'MIC sequence 256,128 fill {w} will create a 256x128 image filled with value 256. ## Vector calculus: Most operators are also able to work with vector-valued elements. * '[a0,a1,...,aN-1]' defines a 'N'-dimensional vector with scalar coefficients 'ak'. * 'vectorN(a0,a1,,...,aN-1)' does the same, with the 'ak' being repeated periodically if only a few are specified. * 'vector(#N,a0,a1,,...,aN-1)' does the same, and can be used for any constant expression 'N'. * In previous expressions, the 'ak' can be vectors themselves, to be concatenated into a single vector. * The scalar element 'ak' of a vector 'X' is retrieved by 'X[k]'. * The sub-vector '[X[p],X[p+s]...X[p+s*(q-1)]]' (of size 'q') of a vector 'X' is retrieved by 'X[p,q,s]'. * 'expr(formula,_w,_h,_d,_s)' outputs a vector of size 'w*h*d*s' with values generated from the specified formula, as if one were filling an image with dimensions '(w,h,d,s)'. * Equality/inequality comparisons between two vectors is done with oper- ators '==' and '!='. * Some vector-specific functions can be used on vector values: 'cross(X, Y)' (cross product), 'dot(X,Y)' (dot product), 'size(X)' (vector dimension), 'sort(X,_is_increasing,_nb_elts,_size_elt)' (sorted values), 'reverse(A)' (reverse order of components), 'shift(A,_length, _boundary_conditions)' and 'same(A,B,_nb_vals,_is_case_sensitive)' (vector equality test). * Function 'normP(u1,...,un)' computes the LP-norm of the specified vector ('P' being an 'unsigned integer' constant or 'inf'). If 'P' is omitted, the L2 norm is calculated. * Function 'resize(A,size,_interpolation,_boundary_conditions)' returns a resized version of a vector 'A' with specified interpolation mode. 'interpolation' can be { -1=none (memory content) | 0=none | 1=nearest | 2=average | 3=linear | 4=grid | 5=bicubic | 6=lanczos }, and 'boundary_conditions' can be { 0=dirichlet | 1=neumann | 2=periodic | 3=mirror }. * Function 'resize(A,ow,oh,od,os,nw,_nh,_nd,_ns,_interpolation, _boundary_conditions,_ax,_ay,_az,_ac)' is an extended version of the previous function. It allows to resize the vector 'A', seen as an image of size 'ow x oh x od x os' as a new image of size 'nw x nh x nd x ns', with specified resizing options. * Function 'find(A,B,_starting_index,_search_step)' returns the index where sub-vector 'B' appears in vector 'A', (or '-1' if 'B' is not contained in 'A'). Argument 'A' can be also replaced by an image index '#ind'. * A '2'-dimensional vector may be seen as a complex number and used in those particular functions/operators: '**' (complex multiplication), '//' (complex division), '^^' (complex exponentiation), '**=' (complex self-multiplication), '//=' (complex self-division), '^^=' (complex self-exponentiation), 'cabs()' (complex modulus), 'carg()' (complex argument), 'cconj()' (complex conjugate), 'cexp()' (complex exponential), 'clog()' (complex logarithm), 'ccos()' (complex cosine), 'csin()' (complex sine), 'ctan()' (complex tangent), 'ccosh()' (complex hyperpolic cosine), 'csinh()' (complex hyperbolic sine) and 'ctanh()' (complex hyperbolic tangent). * A 'MN'-dimensional vector may be seen as a 'M' x 'N' matrix and used in those particular functions/operators: '*' (matrix-vector multiplication), 'det(A)' (determinant), 'diag(V)' (diagonal matrix from a vector), 'eig(A)' (eigenvalues/eigenvectors), 'eye(n)' (n x n identity matrix), 'invert(A,_solver)' (matrix inverse), 'mul(A,B,_nb_colsB)' (matrix-matrix multiplication), 'pseudoinvert(A,_nb_colsA,_solver)', 'rot(u,v,w,angle)' (3D rotation matrix), 'rot(angle)' (2D rotation matrix), 'solve(A,B, _nb_colsB)' (solver of linear system A.X = B), 'svd(A,_nb_colsA)' (singular value decomposition), 'trace(A)' (matrix trace) and 'transpose(A,nb_colsA)' (matrix transpose). Argument 'nb_colsB' may be omitted if it is equal to '1'. * 'mproj(S,nb_colsS,D,nb_colsD,method,max_iter,max_residual)' projects a matrix 'S' onto a dictionary (matrix) 'D'. Equivalent to command mproj but inside the math evaluator. * Specifying a vector-valued math expression as an argument of a command that operates on image values (e.g. 'fill') modifies the whole spectrum range of the processed image(s), for each spatial coordinates '(x,y,z)'. The command does not loop over the 'c'-axis in this case. ## String manipulation: Character strings are defined and managed as vectors objects. Dedicated functions and initializers to manage strings are: * '['string']' and ''string'' define a vector whose values are the character codes of the specified 'character string' (e.g. ''foo'' is equal to '[ 102,111,111 ]'). * '_'character'' returns the (scalar) byte code of the specified character (e.g. '_'A'' is equal to '65'). * A special case happens for empty strings: Values of both expressions '['']' and '''' are '0'. * Functions 'lowercase()' and 'uppercase()' return string with all string characters lowercased or uppercased. * Function 'stov(str,_starting_index,_is_strict)' parses specified string 'str' and returns the value contained in it. * Function 'vtos(expr,_nb_digits,_siz)' returns a vector of size 'siz' which contains the character representation of values described by expression 'expr'. 'nb_digits' can be { -1=auto-reduced | 0=all | >0=max number of digits }. * Function 'echo(str1,str2,...,strN)' prints the concatenation of given string arguments on the console. * Function 'string(_#siz,str1,str2,...,strN)' generates a vector corresponding to the concatenation of given string/number arguments. ## Dynamic arrays: A dynamic array is defined as a one-column (or empty) image '[ind]' in the image list. It allows elements to be added or removed, each element having the same dimension (which is actually the number of channels of image '[ind]'). Dynamic arrays adapt their size to the number of elements they contain. A dynamic array can be manipulated in a math expression, with the follow- ing functions: * 'da_size(_#ind)': Return the number of elements in dynamic array '[ind]'. * 'da_back(_#ind)': Return the last element of the dynamic array '[ind]'. * 'da_insert(_#ind,pos,elt_1,_elt_2,...,_elt_N)': Insert 'N' new elements 'elt_k' starting from index 'pos' in dynamic array '[ind]'. * 'da_push(_#ind,elt1,_elt2,...,_eltN)': Insert 'N' new elements 'elt_k' at the end of dynamic array '[ind]'. * 'da_pop(_#ind)': Same as 'da_back()' but also remove last element from the dynamic array '[ind]'. * 'da_remove(_#ind,_start,_end)': Remove elements located between indices 'start' and 'end' (included) in dynamic array '[ind]'. * 'da_freeze(_#ind)': Convert a dynamic array into a 1-column image with height 'da_size(#ind)'. * The value of the k-th element of dynamic array '[ind]' is retrieved with 'i[_#ind,k]' (if the element is a scalar value), or 'I[_#ind, k]' (if the element is a vector). In the functions above, argument '#ind' may be omitted in which case it is assumed to be '#-1'. ## Special operators: * ';': expression separator. The returned value is always the last encountered expression. For instance expression '1;2;pi' is evaluated as 'pi'. * '=': variable assignment. Variables in mathematical parser can only refer to numerical values (vectors or scalars). Variable names are case-sensitive. Use this operator in conjunction with ';' to define more complex evaluable expressions, such as t = cos(x); 3*t^2 + 2*t + 1 These variables remain local to the mathematical parser and cannot be accessed outside the evaluated expression. * Variables defined in math parser may have a constant property, by specifying keyword 'const' before the variable name (e.g. 'const foo = pi/4;'). The value set to such a variable must be indeed a constant scalar. Constant variables allows certain types of optimizations in the math JIT compiler. ## Specific functions: * 'addr(expr)': return the pointer address to the specified expression 'expr'. * 'fill(target,expr)' or 'fill(target,index_name,expr)' fill the content of the specified target (often vector-valued) using a given ex- pression, e.g. 'V = vector16(); fill(V,k,k^2 + k + 1);'. For a vector-valued tar- get, it is basically equivalent to: 'for (index_name = 0, index_name<size(target), ++index_name, target[index_name] = expr);'. * 'u(max)' or 'u(min,max)': return a random value between '[0, max]' or '[min,max]', following a uniform distribution. * 'f2ui(value)' and 'ui2f(value)': Convert a large unsigned integer as a negative floating point value (and vice-versa), so that 32bits floats can be used to store large integers while keeping a unitary pre- cision. * 'i(_a,_b,_c,_d,_interpolation_type,_boundary_conditions)': return the value of the pixel located at position '(a,b,c,d)' in the associated image, if any ('0' otherwise). 'interpolation_type' can be { 0=nearest neighbor | 1=linear | 2=cubic }. 'boundary_conditions' can be { 0=dirichlet | 1=neumann | 2=periodic | 3=mirror }. Omitted coordinates are replaced by their default values which are respectively 'x', 'y', 'z', 'c', 'interpolation' and 'boundary'. For instance command fill 0.5*(i(x+1)-i(x-1)) will estimate the X-derivative of an image with a classical finite dif- ference scheme. * 'j(_dx,_dy,_dz,_dc,_interpolation_type,_boundary_conditions)' does the same for the pixel located at position '(x+dx,y+dy,z+dz,c+dc)' (pixel access relative to the current coordinates). * 'i[offset,_boundary_conditions]' returns the value of the pixel located at specified 'offset' in the associated image buffer (or '0' if offset is out-of-bounds). * 'j[offset,_boundary_conditions]' does the same for an offset relative to the current pixel coordinates '(x,y,z,c)'. * 'i(#ind,_x,_y,_z,_c,_interpolation,_boundary_conditions)', 'j(#ind, _dx,_dy,_dz,_dc,_interpolation,_boundary_conditions)', 'i[#ind,offset, _boundary_conditions]' and 'i[offset,_boundary_conditions]' are similar expressions used to access pixel values for any numbered image '[ind]' of the list. * 'I/J[_#ind,offset,_boundary_conditions]' and 'I/J(_#ind,_x,_y,_z, _interpolation,_boundary_conditions)' do the same as 'i/j[_#ind,offset, _boundary_conditions]' and 'i/j(_#ind,_x,_y,_z,_c,_interpolation, _boundary_conditions)' but return a vector instead of a scalar (e.g. a vector '[ R,G,B ]' for a pixel at '(a,b,c)' in a color image). * 'crop(_#ind,_x,_y,_z,_c,_dx,_dy,_dz,_dc,_boundary_conditions)' returns a vector whose values come from the cropped region of image '[ind]' (or from default image selected if 'ind' is not specified). Cropped region starts from point '(x,y,z,c)' and has a size of 'dx x dy x dz x dc'. Arguments for coordinates and sizes can be omitted if they are not ambiguous (e.g. 'crop(#ind,x,y,dx,dy)' is a valid invocation of this function). * 'draw(_#ind,S,x,y,z,c,dx,_dy,_dz,_dc,_opacity,_M,_max_M)' draws a sprite 'S' in image '[ind]' (or in default image selected if 'ind' is not specified) at coordinates '(x,y,z,c)'. The size of the sprite 'dx x dy x dz x dc' must be specified. You can also specify a corresponding opacity mask 'M' if its size matches 'S'. * 'polygon(_#ind,nb_vertices,coords,_opacity,_color)' draws a filled polygon in image '[ind]' (or in default image selected if 'ind' is not specified) at specified coordinates. It draws a single line if 'nb_vertices' is set to 2. * 'polygon(_#ind,-nb_vertices,coords,_opacity,_pattern,_color)' draws a outlined polygon in image '[ind]' (or in default image selected if 'ind' is not specified) at specified coordinates and with specified line pattern. It draws a single line if 'nb_vertices' is set to 2. * 'ellipse(_#ind,xc,yc,radius1,_radius2,_angle,_opacity,_color)' draws a filled ellipse in image '[ind]' (or in default image selected if 'ind' is not specified) with specified coordinates. * 'ellipse(_#ind,xc,yc,-radius1,-_radius2,_angle,_opacity,_pattern, _color)' draws an outlined ellipse in image '[ind]' (or in default image selected if 'ind' is not specified). * 'resize(#ind,w,_h,_d,_s,_interp,_boundary_conditions,_cx,_cy,_cz,_cc)' resizes an image of the associated list with specified dimension and interpolation method. When using this function, you should consider re- trieving the (non-constant) image dimensions using the dynamic functions 'w(_#ind)', 'h(_#ind)', 'd(_#ind)', 's(_#ind)', 'wh(_#ind)', 'whd(_#ind)' and 'whds(_#ind)' instead of the corresponding constant variables. * 'if(condition,expr_then,_expr_else)': return value of 'expr_then' or 'expr_else', depending on the value of 'condition' { 0=false | other=true }. 'expr_else' can be omitted in which case '0' is returned if the condition does not hold. Using the ternary operator 'condition?expr_then[:expr_else]' gives an equivalent expression. For instance, G'MIC commands fill if(x%10==0,255,i) and fill x%10?i:255 both draw blank vertical lines on every 10th column of an image. * 'do(expression,_condition)' repeats the evaluation of 'expression' until 'condition' vanishes (or until 'expression' vanishes if no 'condition' is specified). For instance, the expression: if(N<2,N,n=N-1;F0=0;F1=1;do(F2=F0+F1;F0=F1;F1=F2,n=n-1)) returns the N-th value of the Fibonacci sequence, for 'N>=0' (e.g., '46368' for 'N=24'). 'do(expression,condition)' always evaluates the specified expression at least once, then check for the loop condition. When done, it returns the last value of 'expression'. * 'for(init,condition,_procedure,body)' first evaluates the expression 'init', then iteratively evaluates 'body' (followed by 'procedure' if specified) while 'condition' holds (i.e. not zero). It may happen that no iterations are done, in which case the function returns 'nan'. Otherwise, it returns the last value of 'body'. For instance, the expression: if(N<2,N,for(n=N;F0=0;F1=1,n=n-1,F2=F0+F1;F0=F1;F1=F2)) returns the 'N'-th value of the Fibonacci sequence, for 'N>=0' (e.g., '46368' for 'N=24'). * 'while(condition,expression)' is exactly the same as 'for(init, condition,expression)' without the specification of an initializing expression. * 'repeat(nb_iters,expr)' or 'fill(nb_iters,iter_name,expr)' run 'nb_iters' iterations of the specified expression 'expr', e.g. 'V = vector16(); repeat(16,k,V[k] = k^2 + k + 1);'. It is basically equivalent to: 'for (iter_name = 0, iter_name<nb_iters, ++iter_name, expr);'. * 'break()' and 'continue()' respectively breaks and continues the current running block (loop, init or main environment). * 'fsize('filename')' returns the size of the specified 'filename' (or '-1' if file does not exist). * 'date(attr,'path')' returns the date attribute for the given 'path' (file or directory), with 'attr' being { 0=year | 1=month | 2=day | 3=day of week | 4=hour | 5=minute | 6=second }, or a vector of those values. * 'date(_attr)' returns the specified attribute for the current (locale) date (attributes being { 0...6=same meaning as above | 7=milliseconds }). * 'print(expr1,expr2,...)' or 'print(#ind)' prints the value of the specified expressions (or image information) on the console, and re- turns the value of the last expression (or 'nan' in case of an image). Func- tion 'prints(expr)' also prints the string composed of the character codes defined by the vector-valued expression (e.g. 'prints('Hello')'). * 'debug(expression)' prints detailed debug info about the sequence of operations done by the math parser to evaluate the expression (and re- turns its value). * 'display(_X,_w,_h,_d,_s)' or 'display(#ind)' display the contents of the vector 'X' (or specified image) and wait for user events. if no arguments are provided, a memory snapshot of the math parser envi- ronment is displayed instead. * 'begin(expression)' and 'end(expression)' evaluates the specified expressions only once, respectively at the beginning and end of the evaluation procedure, and this, even when multiple evaluations are re- quired (e.g. in 'fill ">begin(foo = 0); ++foo"'). * 'copy(dest,src,_nb_elts,_inc_d,_inc_s,_opacity)' copies an entire memory block of 'nb_elts' elements starting from a source value 'src' to a specified destination 'dest', with increments defined by 'inc_d' and 'inc_s' respectively for the destination and source pointers. * 'stats(_#ind)' returns the statistics vector of the running image '[ind]', i.e the vector '[ im,iM,ia,iv,xm,ym,zm,cm,xM,yM,zM,cM,is,ip ]' (14 values). * 'ref(expr,a)' references specified expression 'expr' as variable name 'a'. * 'unref(a,b,...)' destroys references to the named variable given as arguments. * 'breakpoint()' inserts a possible computation breakpoint (useless with the cli interface). * '_(comment) expr' just returns expression 'expr' (useful for inserting inline comments in math expressions). * 'run('pipeline')' executes the specified G'MIC pipeline as if it was called outside the currently evaluated expression. * 'set('variable_name',A)' set the G'MIC variable '$variable_name' with the value of expression 'A'. If 'A' is a vector-valued variable, it is assumed to encode a string. * 'store('variable_name',A,_w,_h,_d,_s,_is_compressed)' transfers the data of vector 'A' as a 'w x h x d x s' image to the G'MIC variable '$variable_name'. Thus, the data becomes available outside the math expression (that is equivalent to using the regular command store, but directly in the math expression). * 'get('variable_name',_size,_return_as_string)' returns the value of the specified variable, as a vector of 'size' values, or as a scalar (if 'size' is zero or not specified). * 'name(_#ind,size)' returns a vector of size 'size', whose values are the characters codes of the name of image '[ind]' (or default image selected if 'ind' is not specified). * 'correlate(I,wI,hI,dI,sI,K,wK,hK,dK,sK,_boundary_conditions, _is_normalized,_channel_mode,_xcenter,_ycenter,_zcenter,_xstart,_ys- tart,_zstart, _xend,_yend,_zend,_xstride,_ystride,_zstride,_xdilation,_ydilation,_zdi- lation, _interpolation_type)' returns the correlation, unrolled as a vector, of the 'wI x hI x dI x sI'-sized image 'I' with the 'wK x hK x dK x sK'-sized kernel 'K' (the meaning of the other arguments are the same as in command 'correlate'). Similar function 'convolve(...)' is also defined for computing the convolution between 'I' and 'K'. ## User-defined macros: * Custom macro functions can be defined in a math expression, using the assignment operator '=', e.g. foo(x,y) = cos(x + y); result = foo(1,2) + foo(2,3) * Trying to override a built-in function (e.g. 'abs()') has no effect. * Overloading macros with different number of arguments is possible. Re-defining a previously defined macro with the same number of arguments discards its previous definition. * Macro functions are indeed processed as macros by the mathematical evaluator. You should avoid invoking them with arguments that are them- selves results of assignments or self-operations. For instance, foo(x) = x + x; z = 0; foo(++z) returns '4' rather than expected value '2'. * When substituted, macro arguments are placed inside parentheses, ex- cept if a number sign '#' is located just before or after the argument name. For instance, expression foo(x,y) = x*y; foo(1+2,3) returns '9' (being substituted as '(1+2)*(3)'), while expression foo(x,y) = x#*y#; foo(1+2,3) returns '7' (being substituted as '1+2*3'). * Number signs appearing between macro arguments function actually count for empty separators. They may be used to force the substitution of macro arguments in unusual places, e.g. as in str(N) = ['I like N#']; * Macros with variadic arguments can be defined, by specifying a single argument name followed by '...'. For instance, foo(args...) = sum([ args ]^2); defines a macro that returns the sum of its squared arguments, so 'foo(1,2, 3)' returns '14' and 'foo(4,5)' returns '41'. ## Multi-threaded and in-place evaluation: * If your image data are large enough and you have several CPUs avail- able, it is likely that the math expression passed to a 'fill', 'eval' or 'input' commands is evaluated in parallel, using multiple computation threads. * Starting an expression with ':' or '*' forces the evaluations required for an image to be run in parallel, even if the amount of data to process is small (beware, it may be slower to evaluate in this case!). Specify ':' (rather than '*') to avoid possible image copy done before evaluating the expression (this saves memory, but do this only if you are sure this step is not required!) * If the specified expression starts with '>' or '<', the pixel access operators 'i()', 'i[]', 'j()' and 'j[]' return values of the image being currently modified, in forward ('>') or backward ('<') order. The multi-threading evaluation of the expression is disabled in this case. * Function 'critical(expr)' forces the execution of the given expression in a single thread at a time. * 'begin_t(expr)' and 'end_t(expr)' evaluates the specified expression once for each running thread (so possibly several times) at the beginning and the end of the evaluation procedure. * 'merge(variable,operator)' tells to merge the local variable value computed by threads, with the specified operator, when all threads have finished computing. * Expressions 'i(_#ind,x,_y,_z,_c)=value', 'j(_#ind,x,_y,_z, _c)=value', 'i[_#ind,offset]=value' and 'j[_#ind,offset]=value' set a pixel value at a different location than the running one in the image '[ind]' (or in the associated image if argument '#ind' is omitted), either with global coordinates/offsets (with 'i(...)' and 'i[...]'), or relatively to the current position '(x,y,z,c)' (with 'j(...)' and 'j[...]'). These expressions always return 'value'. 10. Image and Data Viewers ---------------------- * G'MIC has some very handy embedded visualization modules, for 1D signals (command plot), 1D/2D/3D images (command display) and 3D vector objects (command display3d). It manages interactive views of the selected image data. * The following actions are available in the interactive viewers: - '(mousewheel)': Zoom in/out. - 'ESC': Close window. - 'CTRL+D': Increase window size. - 'CTRL+C': Decrease window size. - 'CTRL+R': Reset window size. - 'CTRL+F': Toggle fullscreen mode. - 'CTRL+S': Save current view as a numbered file 'gmic_xxxx.ext'. - 'CTRL+O': Save copy of the viewed data, as a numbered file 'gmic_xxxx.ext'. * Actions specific to the 1D/2D image viewer (command display) are: - 'Left mouse button': Create an image selection and zoom into it. - 'Middle mouse button', or 'CTRL+left mouse button': Move image. - 'Mouse wheel' or 'PADD+/-': Zoom in/out. - 'Arrow keys': Move image left/right/up/down. - 'CTRL+A': Enable/disable transparency (show alpha channel). - 'CTRL+N': Change normalization mode (can be { none | normal | channel-by-channel }). - 'CTRL+SPACE': Reset view. - 'CTRL+X': Show/hide axes. - 'CTRL+Z': Hold/release aspect ratio. * Actions specific to the 3D volumetric image viewer (command display) are: - 'CTRL+P': Play z-stack of frames as a movie. - 'CTRL+V': Show/hide 3D view on bottom right zone. - 'CTRL+X': Show/hide axes. - 'CTRL+(mousewheel)': Go up/down. - 'SHIFT+(mousewheel)': Go left/right. - 'Numeric PAD': Zoom in/out ('+'/'-') and move through zoomed image (digits). - 'BACKSPACE': Reset zoom scale. * Actions specific to the 3D object viewer (command display3d) are: - '(mouse)+(left mouse button)': Rotate 3D object. - '(mouse)+(right mouse button)': Zoom 3D object. - '(mouse)+(middle mouse button)': Shift 3D object. - 'F1 ... F6': Toggle between different 3D rendering modes. - 'F7/F8': Decrease/increase focale. - 'F9': Select animation mode. - 'F10': Select animation speed. - 'SPACE': Start/stop animation. - 'CTRL+A': Show/hide 3D axes. - 'CTRL+B': Switch between available background. - 'CTRL+G': Save 3D object, as numbered file 'gmic_xxxx.obj'. - 'CTRL+L': Show/hide outline. - 'CTRL+P': Print current 3D pose on stderr. - 'CTRL+T': Switch between single/double-sided 3D modes. - 'CTRL+V': Start animation with video output. - 'CTRL+X': Show/hide 3D bounding box. - 'CTRL+Z': Enable/disable z-buffered rendering. 11. Adding Custom Commands ---------------------- * New custom commands can be added by the user, through the use of G'MIC custom commands files. * A command file is a simple text file, where each line starts either by command_name: command_definition or command_definition (continuation) * At startup, G'MIC automatically includes user's command file '$HOME/.gmic' (on Unix) or '%APPDATA%/user.gmic' (on Windows). The CLI tool 'gmic' automatically runs the command 'cli_start' if defined. * Custom command names must use character set '[a-zA-Z0-9_]' and cannot start with a number. * Any '# comment' expression found in a custom commands file is discarded by the G'MIC parser, wherever it is located in a line. * In a custom command, the following '$-expressions' are recognized and substituted: - '$*' is substituted by a copy of the specified string of arguments. - '$"*"' is substituted by a copy of the specified string of arguments, each being double-quoted. - '$#' is substituted by the maximum index of known arguments (either specified by the user or set to a default value in the custom command). - '$[]' is substituted by the list of selected image indices that have been specified in the command invocation. - '$?' is substituted by a printable version of '$[]' to be used in command descriptions. - '$i' and '${i}' are both substituted by the 'i'-th specified argument. Negative indices such as '${-j}' are allowed and refer to the 'j'-th latest argument. '$0' is substituted by the custom command name. - '${i=default}' is substituted by the value of '$i' (if defined) or by its new value set to 'default' otherwise ('default' may be a '$-expression' as well). - '${subset}' is substituted by the argument values (separated by commas ',') of a specified argument subset. For instance expression '${2--2}' is substituted by all specified command arguments except the first and the last one. Expression '${^0}' is then substituted by all arguments of the invoked command (eq. to '$*' if all arguments have been indeed specified). - '$=var' is substituted by the set of instructions that will assign each argument '$i' to the named variable 'var$i' (for i in '[0...$#]'. This is particularly useful when a custom command want to manage variable numbers of arguments. Variables names must use character set '[a-zA-Z0-9_]' and cannot start with a number. * These particular '$-expressions' for custom commands are always substituted, even in double-quoted items or when the dollar sign '$' is escaped with a backslash '$'. To avoid substitution, place an empty double quoted string just after the '$' (as in '$""1'). * Specifying arguments may be skipped when invoking a custom command, by replacing them by commas ',' as in expression flower ,,3 Omitted arguments are set to their default values, which must be thus explicitly defined in the code of the corresponding custom command (us- ing default argument expressions as '${1=default}'). * If one numbered argument required by a custom command misses a value, an error is thrown by the G'MIC interpreter. * It is possible to specialize the invocation of a '+command' by defining it as +command_name: command_definition * A +-specialization takes priority over the regular command definition when the command is invoked with a prepended '+'. * When only a +-specialization of a command is defined, invoking 'command' is actually equivalent to '+command'. 12. List of Commands ---------------- All available G'MIC commands are listed below, by categories. An argument specified between '[]' or starting by '_' is optional except when standing for an existing image '[image]', where 'image' can be either an index number or an image name. In this case, the '[]' characters are mandatory when writing the item. Note that all images that serve as illustrations in this reference documentation are normalized in range '[0, 255]' before being displayed. You may need to do this explicitly (com- mand 'normalize 0,255') if you want to save and view images with the same aspect than those illustrated in the example codes. 12.1. Global Options -------------- debug (+): Activate debug mode. When activated, the G'MIC interpreter becomes very verbose and outputs additional log messages about its internal state on the standard output (stdout). This option is useful for developers or to report possible bugs of the interpreter. h: Shortcut for command 'help'. help: command | (no arg) Display help (optionally for specified command only) and exit. (equivalent to shortcut command 'h'). version: Display current version number on stdout. 12.2. Input / Output -------------- camera (+): _camera_index>=0,_nb_frames>0,_skip_frames>=0,_capture_width>=0,_cap- ture_height>=0 Insert one or several frames from specified camera. When 'nb_frames==0', the camera stream is released instead of capturing new images. This command requires features from the OpenCV library (not enabled in G'MIC by default). Default values: 'camera_index=0' (default camera), 'nb_frames=1', 'skip_frames=0' and 'capture_width=capture_height=0' (default size). clut: "clut_name",_resolution>0,_cut_and_round={ 0=no | 1=yes } Insert one of the 958 pre-defined CLUTs at the end of the image list. 'clut_name' can be { 2-strip-process | 60s | 60s_faded | 60s_faded_alt | 7drk_21 | action_magenta_01 | action_red_01 | adventure_1453 | agfa_apx_100 | agfa_apx_25 | agfa_precisa_100 |

'parse_gui_outputmode' : A command that outputs the parsing informa- tion with a custom format. . 'parse_gui_parseparams_outputmode' (optional): A simple command that returns 0 or 1. It tells the parser whether parameters of matching filter must be analyzed (slower) or not. . 'parse_gui_trigger_outputmode' (optional): A command that is called by the parser just before parsing the set of each matching filters. Here is the list of global variables set by the parser, accessible in command 'parse_gui_outputmode': '$_nb_filters': Number of matching filters. '$_nongui' (stored as an image): All merged lines in the file that do not correspond to '#@gui' lines.

Command selection (if any) stands for a selection of images in the par- ent context. By default (adaptive shared state), selected images are inserted in a shared state if they do not belong to the context (selection) of the current custom command or local envi- ronment as well. Typical use of command 'pass' concerns the design of custom commands that take images as arguments. This commands return the list of corresponding indices in the status.

'datatype' can be { auto | uint8 | int8 | uint16 | int16 | uint32 | int32 | uint64 | int64 | float32 | float64 }. Specify 'datatype' if all selected images have a range of values con- strained to a particular datatype, in order to minimize the memory footprint. The resulting image has only integers values in [0,255] and can then be saved as a raw image of unsigned chars (doing so will output a valid .cimg[z] or .gmz file). If 'store_names' is set to '1', serialization uses the .gmz format to store data in memory (otherwise the .cimg[z] format). Default values: 'datatype=auto', 'is_compressed=1' and 'store_names=1'.

Sprite packing is done on random locations and iteratively with de- creasing scales. 'nb_scales' sets the number of decreasing scales considered for all specified sprites to be packed.

Matrix Computation ------------------ dijkstra (+): starting_node>=0,ending_node>=0 Compute minimal distances and paths from specified adjacency matrices by the Dijkstra algorithm. eigen (+): Compute the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of selected symmetric matrices or matrix fields. If one selected image has 3 or 6 channels, it is regarded as a field of 2x2 or 3x3 symmetric matrices, whose eigen elements are computed at each point of the field. Example: [#1] (1,0,0;0,2,0;0,0,3) +eigen [#2] image.jpg structuretensors blur 2 eigen split[0] c Tutorial: https://gmic.eu/oldtutorial/_eigen eye: _size>0 Insert an identity matrix of given size at the end of the image list.

Default value: 'mode=0'. meigen: m>=1 Compute an approximation of the 'm' largest eigenvalues and eigenvec- tors of selected symmetric matrices, using the Arnoldi iteration method (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arnoldi_iteration). A larger 'm' goes with better numerical precision. Example: [#1] (1,0,0;0,2,0;0,0,3) +meigen 3 mproj (+): [dictionary],_method,_max_iter={ 0=auto | >0 },_max_residual>=0 Find best matching projection of selected matrices onto the span of an over-complete dictionary D, using the orthogonal projection or Matching Pursuit algo- rithm. Selected images are 2D-matrices in which each column represent a signal to project. '[dictionary]' is a matrix in which each column is an element of the dictionary D. 'method' tells what projection algorithm must be applied. It can be: - 0 = orthogonal projection (least-squares solution using LU-based solver). - 1 = matching pursuit. - 2 = matching pursuit, with a single orthogonal projection step at the end. - >=3 = orthogonal matching pursuit where an orthogonal projection step is performed every 'method-2' iterations. 'max_iter' sets the max number of iterations processed for each signal. If set to '0' (default), 'max_iter' is equal to the number of columns in D. (only meaningful for matching pursuit and its variants). 'max_residual' gives a stopping criterion on signal reconstruction ac- curacy. (only meaningful for matching pursuit and its variants). For each selected image, the result is returned as a matrix W whose columns correspond to the weights associated to each column of D, such that the matrix product D*W is an approximation of the input ma- trix. Default values: 'method=0', 'max_iter=0' and 'max_residual=1e-6'. solve (+): [image] Solve linear system AX = B for selected B-matrices and specified A-ma- trix. If the system is under- or over-determined, the least squares solution is returned (using SVD-based solver).
