in png_set_IHDR().
|
||||
|
||||
It is also possible to influence how libpng chooses from among the
|
||||
available filters. This is done in one or both of two ways - by
|
||||
telling it how important it is to keep the same filter for successive
|
||||
rows, and by telling it the relative computational costs of the filters.
|
||||
|
||||
double weights[3] = {1.5, 1.3, 1.1},
|
||||
costs[PNG_FILTER_VALUE_LAST] =
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
png_set_filter_heuristics(png_ptr,
|
||||
PNG_FILTER_HEURISTIC_WEIGHTED, 3,
|
||||
weights, costs);
|
||||
|
||||
The weights are multiplying factors that indicate to libpng that the
|
||||
row filter should be the same for successive rows unless another row filter
|
||||
is that many times better than the previous filter. In the above example,
|
||||
if the previous 3 filters were SUB, SUB, NONE, the SUB filter could have a
|
||||
"sum of absolute differences" 1.5 x 1.3 times higher than other filters
|
||||
and still be chosen, while the NONE filter could have a sum 1.1 times
|
||||
higher than other filters and still be chosen. Unspecified weights are
|
||||
taken to be 1.0, and the specified weights should probably be declining
|
||||
like those above in order to emphasize recent filters over older filters.
|
||||
|
||||
The filter costs specify for each filter type a relative decoding cost
|
||||
to be considered when selecting row filters. This means that filters
|
||||
with higher costs are less likely to be chosen over filters with lower
|
||||
costs, unless their "sum of absolute differences" is that much smaller.
|
||||
The costs do not necessarily reflect the exact computational speeds of
|
||||
the various filters, since this would unduly influence the final image
|
||||
size.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that the numbers above were invented purely for this example and
|
||||
are given only to help explain the function usage. Little testing has
|
||||
been done to find optimum values for either the costs or the weights.
