Detailed Description

Peak detector.

This algorithm is a simplified version of [1]. What is referred to as "noise" in the publication can be considered as the minhei parameter.

Functions
function	detect_peaks (in y, in minalt, in minhei, in mindist)

Function Documentation

function detect_peaks	(	in	y,
		in	minalt,
		in	minhei,
		in	mindist
	)

Parameters

y	Vector of values.
minalt=0	Minimum altitude (distance from zero to montain top).
minhei=0	Minimum height (distance from highest foot (either left or right)) to mountain top.
mindist=1	Minimum horizontal distance between two peaks. Peak pruning based on this is done in an iterative way to keep the highest peak of a set of peaks too close to each other.

Returns

Indexes of detected peaks
