Uniform filter
#include "dip_linear.h"
dip_Error dip_Uniform ( in, out, se, boundary, param, shape )
binary, integer, float, complex
This functions implements an uniform convolution filter with support for various filter shapes.
Only the rectangular, elliptic and diamond filter shapes are supported (DIP_FLT_SHAPE_RECTANGULAR, DIP_FLT_SHAPE_ELLIPTIC and DIP_FLT_SHAPE_DIAMOND). Other filter shapes can be implemented by setting shape to DIP_FLT_SHAPE_STRUCTURING_ELEMENT, and passing a binary image in se. The "on" pixels define the shape of the filter window. Other values of shape are illegal.
If shape is not equal to DIP_FLT_SHAPE_STRUCTURING_ELEMENT, se can be set to zero. When shape is set to DIP_FLT_SHAPE_STRUCTURING_ELEMENT, param is ignored, and can be set to zero.

The enumerator dip_FilterShape contains the following constants:
| Name | Description |
| DIP_FLT_SHAPE_DEFAULT | Default filter window, same as DIP_FLT_SHAPE_RECTANGULAR |
| DIP_FLT_SHAPE_RECTANGULAR | Rectangular filter window, can be even in size |
| DIP_FLT_SHAPE_ELLIPTIC | Elliptic filter window, always odd in size |
| DIP_FLT_SHAPE_DIAMOND | Diamond-shaped filter window, always odd in size |
| DIP_FLT_SHAPE_PARABOLIC | Parabolic filter window (morphology only) |
| DIP_FLT_SHAPE_DISCRETE_LINE | Rotated line structuring element (morphology only) |
| DIP_FLT_SHAPE_INTERPOLATED_LINE | Rotated line structuring element, through interpolation (morphology only) |
| DIP_FLT_SHAPE_PERIODIC_LINE | (not implemented) |
| DIP_FLT_SHAPE_STRUCTURING_ELEMENT | Use se as filter window, can be any size |
