/**
 * @file
 * Advanced blur-based logo removing filter
 *
 * This filter loads an image mask file showing where a logo is and
 * uses a blur transform to remove the logo.
 *
 * Based on the libmpcodecs remove-logo filter by Robert Edele.
 */

/**
 * This code implements a filter to remove annoying TV logos and other annoying
 * images placed onto a video stream. It works by filling in the pixels that
 * comprise the logo with neighboring pixels. The transform is very loosely
 * based on a gaussian blur, but it is different enough to merit its own
 * paragraph later on. It is a major improvement on the old delogo filter as it
 * both uses a better blurring algorithm and uses a bitmap to use an arbitrary
 * and generally much tighter fitting shape than a rectangle.
 *
 * The logo removal algorithm has two key points. The first is that it
 * distinguishes between pixels in the logo and those not in the logo by using
 * the passed-in bitmap. Pixels not in the logo are copied over directly without
 * being modified and they also serve as source pixels for the logo
 * fill-in. Pixels inside the logo have the mask applied.
 *
 * At init-time the bitmap is reprocessed internally, and the distance to the
 * nearest edge of the logo (Manhattan distance), along with a little extra to
 * remove rough edges, is stored in each pixel. This is done using an in-place
 * erosion algorithm, and incrementing each pixel that survives any given
 * erosion.  Once every pixel is eroded, the maximum value is recorded, and a
 * set of masks from size 0 to this size are generaged. The masks are circular
 * binary masks, where each pixel within a radius N (where N is the size of the
 * mask) is a 1, and all other pixels are a 0. Although a gaussian mask would be
 * more mathematically accurate, a binary mask works better in practice because
 * we generally do not use the central pixels in the mask (because they are in
 * the logo region), and thus a gaussian mask will cause too little blur and
 * thus a very unstable image.
 *
 * The mask is applied in a special way. Namely, only pixels in the mask that
 * line up to pixels outside the logo are used. The dynamic mask size means that
 * the mask is just big enough so that the edges touch pixels outside the logo,
 * so the blurring is kept to a minimum and at least the first boundary
 * condition is met (that the image function itself is continuous), even if the
 * second boundary condition (that the derivative of the image function is
 * continuous) is not met. A masking algorithm that does preserve the second
 * boundary coundition (perhaps something based on a highly-modified bi-cubic
 * algorithm) should offer even better results on paper, but the noise in a
 * typical TV signal should make anything based on derivatives hopelessly noisy.
