# OVERVIEW

This source code provides in implementation of the algorithm described at
http://www.ipol.im/pub/algo/glmt_mire/
whose authors are Yohann Tendero, Stephane Landeau and Jerome Gilles.

* the executable file is demo_MIRE

This program reads and write PNG image.

- Compilation. 
Automated compilation requires the make program.

- Library. 
This code requires the libpng librarym and uses the io_png routines written by Nicolas Limare <nicolas.limare@cmla.ens-cachan.fr>
io_png.c is distributed under a GPL3+ or BSD license, at your
option. See the included copyright notice, conditions and disclaimer
for details.

 


# COMPILATION
1. Download the code package and extract it. Go to that directory.

2. Compile the source code (on Unix/Linux/Mac OS).
There are two ways to compile the code.
(1) With Open Multi-Processing multithread parallelization
(http://openmp.org/). Roughly speaking, it accelerates the program using the
multiple processors in the computer. Run
make OMP=1



OR
(2) If the complier does not support OpenMp, run
make

# USAGE

'demo_MIRE' takes 2 parameters: `demo_MIRE in out`

* `in`      : input image
* `out`     : output image

example : ./demo_MIRE test1_8bits.png out.png

#Remark: to perform among lines rotate the input image first. Example (imagemagick) :  convert -rotate 90 IN.png OUT.png
