Investigate potential overflows in the complex demosaicing definitions. about colour-demosaicing

Hi,

It might be hard to debug without more information, do you have the file to test?

I think it was my fault.
I found a workaround. It turns out the input data was in uint8 and stringIO was expecting values between 0 and 255. The demosaicing algorithm produced several values that were bigger than 255, which I think got converted into zeros somewhere(probably in stringIO).

    # This is a way to output a good demosaiced uint8, from uint8 input
    m = m.astype('float32')
    m = colour_demosaicing.demosaicing_CFA_Bayer_Menon2007(m)
    print 'negative count:', (m < 0).sum(), ', bigger than 255: ' , (m > 255).sum()
    m = m.clip(0,255)
    m = m.astype('uint8')

Here is a test image, if you are still interested.

and the messed up version:

and a version that used the floats workaround:

Hi,

I was suspecting something along those lines!

Please be aware that the algorithms were tested with floating point images in [0, 1] domain, not integer [0, 255], integer [0, 65535] or any integer representation. You might want to divide your input to the functions by bit_depth - 1.
