Multichannel inputs are scaled with all channel data combined. Ensure all channels are separately normalized prior to running this algorithm.
The spacing
argument is specifically for anisotropic datasets, where data points are spaced differently in one or more spatial dimensions. Anisotropic data is commonly encountered in medical imaging.
The algorithm was first proposed in Random walks for image segmentation, Leo Grady, IEEE Trans Pattern Anal Mach Intell. 2006 Nov;28(11):1768-83.
The algorithm solves the diffusion equation at infinite times for sources placed on markers of each phase in turn. A pixel is labeled with the phase that has the greatest probability to diffuse first to the pixel.
The diffusion equation is solved by minimizing x.T L x for each phase, where L is the Laplacian of the weighted graph of the image, and x is the probability that a marker of the given phase arrives first at a pixel by diffusion (x=1 on markers of the phase, x=0 on the other markers, and the other coefficients are looked for). Each pixel is attributed the label for which it has a maximal value of x. The Laplacian L of the image is defined as:
The weight w_ij is a decreasing function of the norm of the local gradient. This ensures that diffusion is easier between pixels of similar values.
When the Laplacian is decomposed into blocks of marked and unmarked pixels:
L = M B.T B A
with first indices corresponding to marked pixels, and then to unmarked pixels, minimizing x.T L x for one phase amount to solving:
A x = - B x_m
where x_m = 1 on markers of the given phase, and 0 on other markers. This linear system is solved in the algorithm using a direct method for small images, and an iterative method for larger images.

Active contour model.
Active contours by fitting snakes to features of images. Supports single and multichannel 2D images. Snakes can be periodic (for segmentation) or have fixed and/or free ends. The output snake has the same length as the input boundary. As the number of points is constant, make sure that the initial snake has enough points to capture the details of the final contour.

skimage.segmentation.felzenszwalb(image, scale=1, sigma=0.8, min_size=20, multichannel=True)
[source]
Computes Felsenszwalb’s efficient graph based image segmentation.
Produces an oversegmentation of a multichannel (i.e. RGB) image using a fast, minimum spanning tree based clustering on the image grid. The parameter scale
sets an observation level. Higher scale means less and larger segments. sigma
is the diameter of a Gaussian kernel, used for smoothing the image prior to segmentation.
The number of produced segments as well as their size can only be controlled indirectly through scale
. Segment size within an image can vary greatly depending on local contrast.
For RGB images, the algorithm uses the euclidean distance between pixels in color space.

Convert labels in an arbitrary label field to {1, … number_of_labels}.
This function is deprecated, see relabel_sequential
for more.
skimage.segmentation.relabel_sequential(label_field, offset=1)
[source]
Relabel arbitrary labels to {offset

The label 0 is assumed to denote the background and is never remapped.
The forward map can be extremely big for some inputs, since its length is given by the maximum of the label field. However, in most situations, label_field.max()
is much smaller than label_field.size
, and in these cases the forward map is guaranteed to be smaller than either the input or output images.

skimage.segmentation.watershed(image, markers, connectivity=1, offset=None, mask=None, compactness=0, watershed_line=False)

Parameters: |

---|---|
Returns: |

skimage.segmentation.random_walker
This function implements a watershed algorithm [1] [2] that apportions pixels into marked basins. The algorithm uses a priority queue to hold the pixels with the metric for the priority queue being pixel value, then the time of entry into the queue - this settles ties in favor of the closest marker.
Some ideas taken from Soille, “Automated Basin Delineation from Digital Elevation Models Using Mathematical Morphology”, Signal Processing 20 (1990) 171-182
The most important insight in the paper is that entry time onto the queue solves two problems: a pixel should be assigned to the neighbor with the largest gradient or, if there is no gradient, pixels on a plateau should be split between markers on opposite sides.
This implementation converts all arguments to specific, lowest common denominator types, then passes these to a C algorithm.
Markers can be determined manually, or automatically using for example the local minima of the gradient of the image, or the local maxima of the distance function to the background for separating overlapping objects (see example).

The watershed algorithm is useful to separate overlapping objects.
We first generate an initial image with two overlapping circles:
>>> x, y = np.indices((80, 80)) >>> x1, y1, x2, y2 = 28, 28, 44, 52 >>> r1, r2 = 16, 20 >>> mask_circle1 = (x - x1)**2 + (y - y1)**2 < r1**2 >>> mask_circle2 = (x - x2)**2 + (y - y2)**2 < r2**2 >>> image = np.logical_or(mask_circle1, mask_circle2)
Next, we want to separate the two circles. We generate markers at the maxima of the distance to the background:
>>> from scipy import ndimage as ndi >>> distance = ndi.distance_transform_edt(image) >>> from skimage.feature import peak_local_max >>> local_maxi = peak_local_max(distance, labels=image, ... footprint=np.ones((3, 3)), ... indices=False) >>> markers = ndi.label(local_maxi)[0]
Finally, we run the watershed on the image and markers:
>>> labels = watershed(-distance, markers, mask=image)
The algorithm works also for 3-D images, and can be used for example to separate overlapping spheres.

Chan-Vese segmentation algorithm.
Active contour model by evolving a level set. Can be used to segment objects without clearly defined boundaries.
Parameters: |
|
---|---|
Returns: |
|
The Chan-Vese Algorithm is designed to segment objects without clearly defined boundaries. This algorithm is based on level sets that are evolved iteratively to minimize an energy, which is defined by weighted values corresponding to the sum of differences intensity from the average value outside the segmented region, the sum of differences from the average value inside the segmented region, and a term which is dependent on the length of the boundary of the segmented region.
This algorithm was first proposed by Tony Chan and Luminita Vese, in a publication entitled “An Active Countour Model Without Edges” [1].
This implementation of the algorithm is somewhat simplified in the sense that the area factor ‘nu’ described in the original paper is not implemented, and is only suitable for grayscale images.
Typical values for lambda1
and lambda2
are 1. If the ‘background’ is very different from the segmented object in terms of distribution (for example, a uniform black image with figures of varying intensity), then these values should be different from each other.
Typical values for mu are between 0 and 1, though higher values can be used when dealing with shapes with very ill-defined contours.
The ‘energy’ which this algorithm tries to minimize is defined as the sum of the differences from the average within the region squared and weighed by the ‘lambda’ factors to which is added the length of the contour multiplied by the ‘mu’ factor.
Supports 2D grayscale images only, and does not implement the area term described in the original article.

This is a version of the Geodesic Active Contours (GAC) algorithm that uses morphological operators instead of solving partial differential equations (PDEs) for the evolution of the contour. The set of morphological operators used in this algorithm are proved to be infinitesimally equivalent to the GAC PDEs (see [1]). However, morphological operators are do not suffer from the numerical stability issues typically found in PDEs (e.g., it is not necessary to find the right time step for the evolution), and are computationally faster.

Inverse of gradient magnitude.
Compute the magnitude of the gradients in the image and then inverts the result in the range [0, 1]. Flat areas are assigned values close to 1, while areas close to borders are assigned values close to 0.
This function or a similar one defined by the user should be applied over the image as a preprocessing step before calling morphological_geodesic_active_contour
.
