Calculate the integral image.
img is the input image for integral image calculation. If it is an RGB image (or higher dimension), each 2D plane is treated separately.
orient determines which integral image will be
calculated. Its value must be the string "upright"
(default) or "rotated"
.
The value of the integral image in the "upright"
orientation, also called "summed-area table", at any poing (x, y)
is the sum of all the pixels above and to the left of (x, y),
inclusive, see [1].
When using the "rotated"
option, Rotated Summed Area Table
(RSAT) is calculated. It is defined as the sum of the pixels of a
45 degrees rotated rectangle with the bottom most corner at (x,y):
RSAT(x,y) = RSAT(x-1,y-1) + RSAT(x+1,y-1) - RSAT(x,y-2) + I(x,y) + I(x,y-1)
(see [2])
