Detailed Description

Flattens the background by subtracting the local mean.

Parameters:
map an EMData object that defines the extent of the local neighbourhood - will be used for convolution
radius exclusive of the mask parameter, this defines the radius of a circle/sphere that will be used for local mean subtraction

void FlattenBackgroundProcessor::process_inplace ( EMData image  )  [virtual]

To process an image in-place.

For those processors which can only be processed out-of-place, override this function to just print out some error message to remind user call the out-of-place version.

Parameters:
image The image to be processed.
