imgproc: optimize EMD (Earth Mover's Distance) solver performance #29194
### imgproc: optimize EMD solver performance using O(V) spanning tree traversal
---
This PR significantly optimizes the performance of the Earth Mover's Distance (`cv::EMD`) solver in `modules/imgproc/src/emd_new.cpp`.
Specifically, it refactors the dual-variable calculation in `EMDSolver::findBasicVars()` from a naive $O((N+M)^2)$ linked-list scanning approach to an optimized $O(N+M)$ BFS tree traversal utilizing existing adjacency lists, leading to a massive speedup.
---
#### Technical Details & Core Bottleneck Fixed
1. **Algorithmic Complexity Reduction in `findBasicVars()`:**
- **Before**: The original implementation solved the dual variables $u_i$ and $v_j$ by traversing the entire unmarked rows (`u0_head`) or columns (`v0_head`) linked-lists and invoking `getIsX(i, j)` inside nested loops to find connected basic variables. This resulted in an $O((N+M)^2)$ complexity per simplex iteration. For a scale of $2000 \times 2000$, this performed up to $16,000,000$ operations per iteration.
- **After**: Since `EMDSolver` already maintains the adjacency lists of the basic variables tree (`rows_x` and `cols_x`), we can traverse the spanning tree in linear time. This PR implements a dual-queue BFS tree traversal. The complexity per iteration is drastically reduced to $O(N+M)$, performing at most $4000$ operations per iteration.
2. **Cache Locality & Pointer-Chasing Elimination:**
- Replaced pointer-chasing on dynamically-allocated linked lists with contiguous, stack-allocated array queues (`cv::AutoBuffer`), significantly improving CPU L1/L2 cache hit rates and enabling hardware prefetching.

| **500** | 381.871 | 244.355 | **1.56x** |
| **1000** | 1893.053 | 1369.016 | **1.38x** |
| **2000** | 11387.792 | 8331.221 | **1.37x** |
#### Test 2: dims = 3

| **2000** | 12731.836 | 7952.210 | **1.60x** |
*(Note: The exact performance figures may vary slightly depending on the compiler and test machine.)*

### Summary
This PR improves SIMD coverage for masked `cv::accumulate()` on 4-channel images.
The existing masked accumulate SIMD implementation has special paths for `cn == 1` and `cn == 3`, while 4-channel images fall back to the general implementation. This PR adds `cn == 4` SIMD paths using OpenCV Universal Intrinsics.
Compare link:
https://github.com/opencv/opencv/compare/4.x...feitianduowen:opencv:4.x
Modified files:
- `modules/imgproc/src/accum.simd.hpp`
- Add masked `cn == 4` SIMD paths for:
- `CV_32FC4 -> CV_32FC4`
- `CV_8UC4 -> CV_32FC4`
- `modules/video/test/test_accum.cpp`
- Add deterministic correctness regression tests for the new masked 4-channel accumulate paths.
- `modules/imgproc/perf/perf_accumulate.cpp`
- Add performance coverage for masked 4-channel accumulate.
imgproc: add SIMD paths for masked 4-channel accumulate #29094
### Implementation
The new SIMD branches are added in:
- `modules/imgproc/src/accum.simd.hpp`
They handle:
- `src`: `CV_32FC4`, `dst`: `CV_32FC4`, `mask`: `CV_8UC1`
- `src`: `CV_8UC4`, `dst`: `CV_32FC4`, `mask`: `CV_8UC1`
For the `CV_32FC4` path, the implementation uses `v_load_deinterleave`, applies the pixel mask to all 4 channels, accumulates into `dst`, and stores the result with `v_store_interleave`.
For the `CV_8UC4 -> CV_32FC4` path, the implementation loads 4 interleaved uchar channels, applies the pixel mask, widens the values to float, accumulates into `dst`, and stores the results back as interleaved `CV_32FC4`.
The masked SIMD block is guarded with:
```cpp
if (x <= len - cVectorWidth)
{
...
}
```
This check ensures that SIMD setup and vector operations are only executed when at least one full vector iteration can run. For very small inputs or tail-only cases, the function skips SIMD initialization and lets the existing scalar fallback handle the data through `acc_general_(src, dst, mask, len, cn, x)`.
This keeps tail handling unchanged and avoids unnecessary SIMD initialization when the vector loop would be skipped.
### Accuracy tests
Added a deterministic regression test in:
* `modules/video/test/test_accum.cpp`
New test:
```bash
Video_Acc.accuracy_32FC4_masked_cn4
Video_Acc.accuracy_8UC4_to_32FC4_masked_cn4
```
Test commands:
```bash
opencv_test_video --gtest_filter=Video_Acc.accuracy_32FC4_masked_cn4
opencv_test_video --gtest_filter=Video_Acc.accuracy_8UC4_to_32FC4_masked_cn4
opencv_test_video --gtest_filter="Video_Acc.*:Video_AccSquared.*:Video_AccProduct.*:Video_RunningAvg.*"
```
The filtered accumulate-related tests passed locally.
I added dedicated deterministic tests instead of only extending the existing randomized accumulate tests because this PR only changes the masked `cv::accumulate()` paths for specific 4-channel type combinations. It does not add `cn == 4` SIMD coverage for `accumulateSquare`, `accumulateProduct`, or `accumulateWeighted`.
The existing base accumulate tests are shared by several accumulation functions. Extending the common randomized channel selection to include `cn == 4` would also affect tests for functions that are not optimized by this PR. The new deterministic tests directly cover the modified paths:
* `cv::accumulate(src, dst, mask)`
* `CV_32FC4 -> CV_32FC4`
* `CV_8UC4 -> CV_32FC4`
* `mask`: `CV_8UC1`
The test also covers small sizes and non-vector-multiple sizes, so both the new SIMD path and the existing scalar tail fallback are exercised.
### Performance tests
Added performance coverage in:
* `modules/imgproc/perf/perf_accumulate.cpp`
Perf command:
```bash
opencv_perf_imgproc --gtest_filter="*AccumulateMask32FC4*" --perf_min_samples=1000 --perf_force_samples=1000
opencv_perf_imgproc --gtest_filter="*AccumulateMask8UC4To32FC4*" --perf_min_samples=1000 --perf_force_samples=1000
```
Test environment:
* Release build
* AVX2 enabled
* IPP disabled
* OpenCL disabled
* Windows MinGW build
Performance results:
`CV_32FC4 -> CV_32FC4`
| Size | Before median | After median | Speedup |
| --------- | ------------- | ------------ | ------- |

### Build and test commands
The following commands were run from Windows `cmd.exe`.
```sh
cmake -S . -B build_release -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DBUILD_TESTS=ON -DBUILD_PERF_TESTS=OFF -DBUILD_EXAMPLES=OFF -DWITH_IPP=OFF -DWITH_OPENCL=OFF -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS=-mstackrealign -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS=-mstackrealign

build_release\bin\opencv_test_video.exe --gtest_filter=Video_Acc.*:Video_AccSquared.*:Video_AccProduct.*:Video_RunningAvg.*
```
Accuracy test commands passed locally.
For the performance comparison, I kept the new perf test in `modules/imgproc/perf/perf_accumulate.cpp` and only reverted `modules/imgproc/src/accum.simd.hpp` to measure the baseline. Then I restored the SIMD patch and measured the optimized version.
Baseline measurement:
```sh
git diff -- modules/imgproc/src/accum.simd.hpp > accum_cn4_simd.patch
git checkout -- modules/imgproc/src/accum.simd.hpp
mkdir perf_logs
cmake -S . -B build_perf_before -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DBUILD_TESTS=OFF -DBUILD_PERF_TESTS=ON -DBUILD_EXAMPLES=OFF -DWITH_IPP=OFF -DWITH_OPENCL=OFF -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS=-mstackrealign -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS=-mstackrealign > perf_logs\before_cmake_config.txt 2>&1

```
Optimized measurement:
```sh
git apply accum_cn4_simd.patch
cmake -S . -B build_perf_after -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DBUILD_TESTS=OFF -DBUILD_PERF_TESTS=ON -DBUILD_EXAMPLES=OFF -DWITH_IPP=OFF -DWITH_OPENCL=OFF -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS=-mstackrealign -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS=-mstackrealign > perf_logs\after_cmake_config.txt 2>&1

```
```sh
git apply accum_cn4_u8_simd.patch
cmake -S . -B build_perf_after_u8 -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DBUILD_TESTS=OFF -DBUILD_PERF_TESTS=ON -DBUILD_EXAMPLES=OFF -DWITH_IPP=OFF -DWITH_OPENCL=OFF -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS=-mstackrealign -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS=-mstackrealign

```
Performance comparison was measured by keeping the new perf tests and only reverting modules/imgproc/src/accum.simd.hpp for the baseline run.
`-mstackrealign` was used for the MinGW Windows build to avoid stack-alignment issues with AVX code generation during local testing.
### Notes
The implementation keeps the existing scalar fallback path unchanged. SIMD is used only for the newly covered masked `cn == 4` vectorizable part, and any remaining tail elements are still handled by `acc_general_()`.
The improvement is most visible on larger images. Small images are dominated by overhead and do not always show meaningful speedup.
imgproc: add findTRUContours - lock-free parallel contour extraction #28773
Integrates the TRUCO algorithm (Threaded Raster Unrestricted Contour Ownership, @cite TRUCO2026) as a transparent fast path inside `cv::findContours`. No API change is required: existing code automatically benefits when `mode=RETR_LIST` and no hierarchy output is requested.
### How it works
When `mode=RETR_LIST` and the caller does not request hierarchy, `findContours` delegates to the TRUCO parallel engine instead of Suzuki-Abe. All ContourApproximationModes are supported; approximation is applied in parallel after extraction. In all other cases the original Suzuki-Abe path is used unchanged.
### Key design ideas
- Row-strip domain decomposition parallelised via `cv::parallel_for_`
- Start-point ownership rule + speculative downward tracing eliminate tile stitching and synchronisation primitives (lock-free)
- 8-bit state space instead of the 32-bit integer labeling required by Suzuki-Abe, giving higher SIMD throughput and lower memory-bandwidth pressure
- Paged contour buffer (`TRUCOPagedContour`) avoids heap reallocation on the hot tracing path
- SIMD-accelerated row scanning via `cv::v_uint8` intrinsics
- Thread count controlled globally via `cv::setNumThreads()`, consistent with OpenCV conventions
### Output correctness
Significant effort has gone into ensuring the output is identical to the original `findContours` in every respect: same contour set, same ordering, and same approximation results for all methods. A dedicated test suite (`test_contours_truco.cpp`) verifies exact match against Suzuki-Abe across all four `ContourApproximationModes` and thread counts from 1 to 39, using noise images, circles, nested rectangles, and mixed scenes.
### Performance vs. Suzuki-Abe (from submitted paper)
- single-thread: ~1.8–1.9× faster (8-bit SIMD advantage)
- 20 threads: ~14–20× faster on i7-13700H (6P+8E, 20T)
- 20 threads: ~10–12× faster on Xeon Silver 4510 (12C/24T)

imgproc: fix minEnclosingCircle O(n^3) worst case by adding Welzl shuffle #28548
Welzl's algorithm requires random permutation of input points to
achieve expected O(n) time. Without shuffling, sorted inputs such
as those produced by findContours() trigger O(n^3) worst case.
Fix: copy input to std::vector<PT> and apply cv::randShuffle()
before processing. Uses OpenCV's RNG so cv::setRNGSeed() ensures
reproducible behavior.
Original benchmark (5088 contour points, Release, AVX2):
findContours output: 3.93 ms → 0.033 ms (119x speedup)
Random points: 0.051 ms → 0.049 ms (no regression)
Perf test results (this PR, Release, AVX2):
| Input | N | Time |
|-------|---|------|
| Sequential circle points | 10000 | 0.03 ms |
| Sequential circle points | 5000 | 0.01 ms |
| Random points (CV_32F) | 100000 | 1.87 ms |
| Random points (CV_32S) | 100000 | 2.81 ms |

First proposal of cv::remap with relative displacement field (#24603) #24621
Implements #24603
Currently, `remap()` is applied as `dst(x, y) <- src(mapX(x, y), mapY(x, y))` It means that the maps must be filled with absolute coordinates.
However, if one wants to remap something according to a displacement field ("warp"), the operation should be `dst(x, y) <- src(x+displacementX(x, y), y+displacementY(x, y))`
It is trivial to build a mapping from a displacement field, but it is an undesirable overhead for CPU and memory.
This PR implements the feature as an experimental option, through the optional flag WARP_RELATIVE_MAP than can be ORed to the interpolation mode.
Since the xy maps might be const, there is no attempt to add the coordinate offset to those maps, and everything is postponed on-the-fly to the very last coordinate computation before fetching `src`. Interestingly, this let `cv::convertMaps()` unchanged since the fractional part of interpolation does not care of the integer coordinate offset.

Implement color conversion from RGB to YUV422 family #24333
Related PR for extra: https://github.com/opencv/opencv_extra/pull/1104
Hi,
This patch provides CPU and OpenCL implementations of color conversions from RGB/BGR to YUV422 family (such as UYVY and YUY2).
These features would come in useful for enabling standard RGB images to be supplied as input to algorithms or networks that make use of images in YUV422 format directly (for example, on resource constrained devices working with camera images captured in YUV422).
The code, tests and perf tests are all written following the existing pattern. There is also an example `bin/example_cpp_cvtColor_RGB2YUV422` that loads an image from disk, converts it from BGR to UYVY and then back to BGR, and displays the result as a visual check that the conversion works.
The OpenCL performance for the forward conversion implemented here is the same as the existing backward conversion on my hardware. The CPU implementation, unfortunately, isn't very optimized as I am not yet familiar with the SIMD code.
Please let me know if I need to fix something or can make other modifications.
Thanks!

* resize: HResizeLinear reduce duplicate work
There appears to be a 2x unroll of the HResizeLinear against k,
however the k value is only incremented by 1 during the unroll. This
results in k - 1 duplicate passes when k > 1.
Likewise, the final pass may not respect the work done by the vector
loop. Start it with the offset returned by the vector op if
implemented. Note, no vector ops are implemented today.
The performance is most noticable on a linear downscale. A set of
performance tests are added to characterize this. The performance
improvement is 10-50% depending on the scaling.
* imgproc: vectorize HResizeLinear
Performance is mostly gated by the gather operations
for x inputs.
Likewise, provide a 2x unroll against k, this reduces the
number of alpha gathers by 1/2 for larger k.
While not a 4x improvement, it still performs substantially
better under P9 for a 1.4x improvement. P8 baseline is
1.05-1.10x due to reduced VSX instruction set.
For float types, this results in a more modest
1.2x improvement.
