NAME
       mogrify - mogrify an image

SYNOPSIS
       mogrify [ options ... ] file ...


DESCRIPTION
       Mogrify  transforms  an image or a sequence of images. These transforms
       include image scaling, image rotation, color reduction, and others. The
       transmogrified  image  overwrites  the original image, unless an option
       such as -format causes the output filename to  be  different  from  the
       input filename.

       The graphics formats supported by mogrify are listed in ImageMagick(1).

EXAMPLES
       To convert all the TIFF files in a particular directory to JPEG, use:

           mogrify -format jpeg *.tiff

       To convert a directory full of JPEG images to thumbnails, use:

           convert -size 120x120 *.jpg -resize 120x120 +profile '*'

       In this example, "-i size 120x120" gives a hint  to  the  JPEG  decoder
       that  the  images are going to be downscaled to 120x120, allowing it to
       run faster by avoiding returning full-resolution images.  The  "-resize
       120x120"  specifies  the  desired  dimensions of the output images.  It
       will be scaled so its largest dimension is 120 pixels.   The  "+profile
       '*'"  removes  any  ICM,  EXIF,  IPTC,  or other profiles that might be
       present in the input and aren't needed in the thumbnails.

       To scale an image of a cockatoo to exactly 640 pixels in width and  480
       pixels in height, use:

           mogrify -resize 640x480! cockatoo.miff

OPTIONS
       Options  are processed in command line order. Any option you specify on
       the command line remains in effect for the set of images that  follows,
       until the set is terminated by the appearance of any option or -noop.

IMAGE SEGMENTATION
       Use  -segment  to  segment  an image by analyzing the histograms of the
       color components and identifying units that are  homogeneous  with  the
       fuzzy c-means technique. The scale-space filter analyzes the histograms
       of the three color components of the image  and  identifies  a  set  of
       classes.   The  extents  of  each class is used to coarsely segment the
       image with thresholding.  The  color  associated  with  each  class  is
       determined by the mean color of all pixels within the extents of a par-
       ticular class. Finally, any unclassified pixels  are  assigned  to  the
       closest class with the fuzzy c-means technique.

       The fuzzy c-Means algorithm can be summarized as follows:


       Build a histogram, one for each color component of the image.

       For each histogram, successively apply the scale-space filter and build
       an interval tree of zero crossings in the  second  derivative  at  each
       scale.  Analyze this scale-space "fingerprint" to determine which peaks
       or valleys in the histogram are most predominant.

       The fingerprint defines intervals on the axis of  the  histogram.  Each
       interval  contains  either a minima or a maxima in the original signal.
       If each color component lies within the maxima interval, that pixel  is
       considered "classified" and is assigned an unique class number.

       Any pixel that fails to be classified in the above thresholding pass is
       classified using the fuzzy c-Means technique. It is assigned to one  of
       the classes discovered in the histogram analysis phase.


       The  fuzzy c-Means technique attempts to cluster a pixel by finding the
       local minima of the generalized  within  group  sum  of  squared  error
       objective  function.  A pixel is assigned to the closest class of which
       the fuzzy membership has a maximum value.
