I started app project, for image processing, using OpenCv 4.5.3 and Swift ( with C++ ). I'm fighting with watershaded alg. for a really long time... And i have no clue what did i do wrong. Just don't know...
Error :
libc++abi.dylib: terminating with uncaught exception of type cv::Exception: OpenCV(4.5.3)

In the definition of openCv's watershed we can find :
@param image Input 8-bit 3-channel image.
@param markers Input/output 32-bit single-channel image (map) of markers. It should have the same size as image .
+(UIImage *) watershed:(UIImage *)src{
cv::Mat img, mask;
UIImageToMat(src, img);
// Change the background from white to black, since that will help later to extract
// better results during the use of Distance Transform
cv::inRange(img, cv::Scalar(255,255,255), cv::Scalar(255,255,255), mask);
img.setTo(cv::Scalar(0,0,0), mask);
// Create a kernel that we will use to sharpen our image
// an approximation of second derivative, a quite strong kernel
cv::Mat kernel = (cv::Mat_<float>(3,3) <<
1, 1, 1,
1, -8, 1,
1, 1, 1);
// do the laplacian filtering as it is
// well, we need to convert everything in something more deeper then CV_8U
// because the kernel has some negative values,
// and we can expect in general to have a Laplacian image with negative values
// BUT a 8bits unsigned int (the one we are working with) can contain values from 0 to 255
// so the possible negative number will be truncated
cv::Mat lapl;
cv::filter2D(img, lapl, CV_32F, kernel);
cv::Mat sharp;
img.convertTo(sharp, CV_32F);
cv::Mat result = sharp - lapl;
// convert back to 8bits gray scale
result.convertTo(result, CV_8UC3);
lapl.convertTo(lapl, CV_8UC3);
cv::Mat bw;
cv::cvtColor(result, bw, cv::COLOR_BGR2GRAY);
cv::threshold(bw, bw, 40, 255, cv::THRESH_BINARY | cv::THRESH_OTSU);
// Perform the distance transform algorithm
cv::Mat dist;
cv::distanceTransform(bw, dist, cv::DIST_L2, cv::DIST_MASK_3);
// Normalize the distance image for range = {0.0, 1.0}
// so we can visualize and threshold it
cv::normalize(dist, dist, 0, 1.0, cv::NORM_MINMAX);
// Threshold to obtain the peaks
// This will be the markers for the foreground objects
cv::threshold(dist, dist, 0.4, 1.0, cv::THRESH_BINARY);
// Dilate a bit the dist image
cv::Mat kernel1 = cv::Mat::ones(3, 3, CV_8U);
dilate(dist, dist, kernel1);
// Create the CV_8U version of the distance image
// It is needed for findContours()
cv::Mat dist_8u;
dist.convertTo(dist_8u, CV_8U);
// Find total markers
std::vector<std::vector<cv::Point> > contours;
findContours(dist_8u, contours, cv::RETR_EXTERNAL, cv::CHAIN_APPROX_SIMPLE);
// Create the marker image for the watershed algorithm
cv::Mat markers = cv::Mat::zeros(dist.size(), CV_32S);
// Draw the foreground markers
for (size_t i = 0; i < contours.size(); i++)
{
drawContours(markers, contours, static_cast<int>(i), cv::Scalar(static_cast<int>(i)+1), -1);
}
// Draw the background marker
circle(markers, cv::Point(5,5), 3, cv::Scalar(255), -1);
cv::Mat markers8u;
markers.convertTo(markers8u, CV_8U, 10);
// Perform the watershed algorithm
watershed(result, markers);
return MatToUIImage(result);
}
You can clearly see, that variables has proper type, as in descr. of function:
result.convertTo(result, CV_8UC3);
cv::Mat markers = cv::Mat::zeros(dist.size(), CV_32S);
The convertTo
can not add channels as well can not reduce/convert image to image with smaller amount of channels.
The key in this case is to use :
cvtColor(src, src, COLOR_BGRA2BGR); // change 4 to 3 channels
