Grid Mask Row Run Table

Tabulate maximal set-cell runs along rows of a rectangular binary mask with half-open local bounds.

Description

Tabulate maximal set-cell runs along rows of a rectangular binary mask with half-open local bounds.

A row-run table summarizes maximal horizontal one-valued spans without merging adjacent rows.

When to use this tool

Tabulate maximal set-cell runs along rows of a rectangular binary mask with half-open local bounds.

Prepare the supplied mask fields for this operation.
Compare the complete example with the representation used by your own input before carrying the result into another step.

How to use the tool and how it works

Enter mask. Use the exact text syntax, units and index conventions explained below.
Run the tool. If input validation fails, correct the supplied fields before interpreting any result.
Read result.runs. Interpret false, null and empty lists using the distinctions below; they can be valid outputs.

Validate the mask and return every one-run as row, start column and exclusive end column in row order.^[1]

Input field	Meaning and representation	Accepted input
mask	mask.	Numeric rows; at most 128 rows and 128 values per row

Output field	Interpretation
result	Object containing the named outputs below.
result.runs	The runs list in the ordering and representation described above.

          "end": 3
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

Limitations and assumptions

Only one-valued runs are included. The output is not a connected-component or rectangle decomposition.
Coordinate pairs use [row,column] where stated. Masks are nonempty rectangular zero/one matrices of at most 128 rows, 128 columns and 16,384 cells; outside-mask values are unset for the neighborhood operations.
Every declared top-level field is required and unexpected fields are rejected. Numeric inputs must be finite; ordinary text fields are bounded to 8,192 UTF-16 code units, with tighter operation-specific limits where stated.
String lists have at most 128 entries of at most 128 code units; matrices have at most 128 rows and columns. Larger numeric lists and parsed JSON have separate bounded budgets. Nonfinite results and excessively large serialized outputs are rejected.
Indexes are zero-based and spans have an exclusive end unless explicitly stated otherwise. A valid false, null or empty-list result is distinct from malformed input.

Alternative or Complementary methods

Keep row/column coordinates distinct from x/y pairs and byte offsets. Select the neighborhood metric, outside-mask rule and storage-order convention explicitly; these operations do not infer an image format.
