# scipy.ndimage.filters.uniform_filter

`scipy.ndimage.filters.``uniform_filter`(input, size=3, output=None, mode='reflect', cval=0.0, origin=0)

  Multi-dimensional uniform filter.

  Parameters: | input : array_like Input array to filter. size : int or sequence of ints, optional The sizes of the uniform filter are given for each axis as a sequence, or as a single number, in which case the size is equal for all axes. output : array, optional The output parameter passes an array in which to store the filter output. mode : {‘reflect’, ‘constant’, ‘nearest’, ‘mirror’, ‘wrap’}, optional The mode parameter determines how the array borders are handled, where cval is the value when mode is equal to ‘constant’. Default is ‘reflect’ cval : scalar, optional Value to fill past edges of input if mode is ‘constant’. Default is 0.0 origin : scalar, optional The origin parameter controls the placement of the filter. Default 0.0.

  Notes

  The multi-dimensional filter is implemented as a sequence of one-dimensional uniform filters. The intermediate arrays are stored in the same data type as the output. Therefore, for output types with a limited precision, the results may be imprecise because intermediate results may be stored with insufficient precision.
