The Kernel class defines a matrix that describes how a specified pixel and its surrounding pixels affect the value computed for the pixel's position in the output image of a filtering operation. The X origin and Y origin indicate the kernel matrix element that corresponds to the pixel position for which an output value is being computed.

public class Kernel implements Cloneable { private int width; private int height; private int xOrigin; private int yOrigin; private float data[]; private static native void initIDs(); static { ColorModel.loadLibraries(); initIDs(); }
Constructs a Kernel object from an array of floats. The first widthheight elements of the data array are copied. If the length of the data array is less than width*height, an IllegalArgumentException is thrown. The X origin is (width-1)/2 and the Y origin is (height-1)/2.
Params:
  • width – width of the kernel
  • height – height of the kernel
  • data – kernel data in row major order
Throws:

Params:
