downsampling an image ( by a factor ) using gaussian blur

Usage

down_sample_image(
  image,
  factor,
  gaussian_blur = FALSE,
  gauss_sigma = 1,
  range_gauss = 2
)

Arguments

image

matrix or 3-dimensional array where the third dimension is equal to 3

factor

a positive number greater or equal to 1.0

gaussian_blur

a boolean (TRUE,FALSE) specifying if gaussian blur should be applied when downsampling

gauss_sigma

float parameter sigma for the gaussian filter

range_gauss

float number specifying the range of values for the gaussian filter

Value

depending on the input, either a matrix or an array

Details

This function downsamples an image with the option to use gaussian blur for optimal output.
