Detailed Description

Primitives for computing the norms of an image, the norms of difference, and the relative errors of two images.

Given an image $pSrc$ with width $W$ and height $H$ ,

The infinity norm (Norm_Inf) is defined as the largest absolute pixel value of the image.
The L1 norm (Norm_L1) is defined as the sum of the absolute pixel value of the image, i.e.,
$Norm\_L1 = \sum_{j=0}^{H-1}\sum_{i=0}^{W-1}\left| pSrc(j,i)\right|$
.
The L2 norm (Norm_L2) is defined as the square root of the sum of the squared absolute pixel value of the image, i.e.,
$Norm\_L2 = \sqrt{\sum_{j=0}^{H-1}\sum_{i=0}^{W-1}\left| pSrc(j,i)\right| ^2}$
.

Given two images $pSrc1$ and $pSrc2$ both with width $W$ and height $H$ ,

The infinity norm of differece (NormDiff_Inf) is defined as the largest absolute difference between pixels of two images.
The L1 norm of differece (NormDiff_L1) is defined as the sum of the absolute difference between pixels of two images, i.e.,
$NormDiff\_L1 = \sum_{j=0}^{H-1}\sum_{i=0}^{W-1}\left| pSrc1(j,i)-pSrc2(j,i)\right|$
.
The L2 norm of differece (NormDiff_L2) is defined as the squared root of the sum of the squared absolute difference between pixels of two images, i.e.,
$NormDiff\_L2 = \sqrt{\sum_{j=0}^{H-1}\sum_{i=0}^{W-1}\left| pSrc1(j,i)-pSrc2(j,i)\right| ^2}$
.

Given two images $pSrc1$ and $pSrc2$ both with width $W$ and height $H$ ,

The relative error for the infinity norm of differece (NormRel_Inf) is defined as NormDiff_Inf divided by the infinity norm of the second image, i.e.,
$NormRel\_Inf = \frac{NormDiff\_Inf}{Norm\_Inf_{src2}}$
The relative error for the L1 norm of differece (NormRel_L1) is defined as NormDiff_L1 divided by the L1 norm of the second image, i.e.,
$NormRel\_L1 = \frac{NormDiff\_L1}{Norm\_L1_{src2}}$
The relative error for the L2 norm of differece (NormRel_L2) is defined as NormDiff_L2 divided by the L2 norm of the second image, i.e.,
$NormRel\_L2 = \frac{NormDiff\_L2}{Norm\_L2_{src2}}$

The norm functions require the addition device scratch buffer for the computations.
