## Function Documentation

## § decolor()

void cv::decolor | ( | InputArray | src,
|  | OutputArray | grayscale,
|  | OutputArray | color_boost
| ) |  |

Python:
| grayscale, color_boost | = | cv.decolor( | src[, grayscale[, color_boost]] | )

Transforms a color image to a grayscale image. It is a basic tool in digital printing, stylized black-and-white photograph rendering, and in many single channel image processing applications [116] .

Parameters

  src | Input 8-bit 3-channel image.
  grayscale | Output 8-bit 1-channel image.
  color_boost | Output 8-bit 3-channel image.

This function is to be applied on color images.

## § inpaint()

void cv::inpaint | ( | InputArray | src,
|  | InputArray | inpaintMask,
|  | OutputArray | dst,
|  | double | inpaintRadius,
|  | int | flags
| ) |  |

Python:
| dst | = | cv.inpaint( | src, inpaintMask, inpaintRadius, flags[, dst] | )

Restores the selected region in an image using the region neighborhood.

Parameters

  src | Input 8-bit, 16-bit unsigned or 32-bit float 1-channel or 8-bit 3-channel image.
  inpaintMask | Inpainting mask, 8-bit 1-channel image. Non-zero pixels indicate the area that needs to be inpainted.
  dst | Output image with the same size and type as src .
  inpaintRadius | Radius of a circular neighborhood of each point inpainted that is considered by the algorithm.
  flags | Inpainting method that could be one of the following: INPAINT_NS Navier-Stokes based method [Navier01] INPAINT_TELEA Method by Alexandru Telea [178] .

The function reconstructs the selected image area from the pixel near the area boundary. The function may be used to remove dust and scratches from a scanned photo, or to remove undesirable objects from still images or video. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inpainting for more details.
