/**
|
* This class implements a local thresholding algorithm, which while slower than the
|
* ZXGlobalHistogramBinarizer, is fairly efficient for what it does. It is designed for
|
* high frequency images of barcodes with black data on white backgrounds. For this application,
|
* it does a much better job than a global blackpoint with severe shadows and gradients.
|
* However it tends to produce artifacts on lower frequency images and is therefore not
|
* a good general purpose binarizer for uses outside ZXing.
|
*
|
* This class extends ZXGlobalHistogramBinarizer, using the older histogram approach for 1D readers,
|
* and the newer local approach for 2D readers. 1D decoding using a per-row histogram is already
|
* inherently local, and only fails for horizontal gradients. We can revisit that problem later,
|
* but for now it was not a win to use local blocks for 1D.
|
*
|
* This Binarizer is the default for the unit tests and the recommended class for library users.
