SegmentImage_Edges


Module: FoundationPro

Segments an image into blobs using image edges as their borders.

Applications

Detection of objects of undefined shape, but characterized by good contrast to the background and fairly uniform internal brightness.
Name Type Range Description
inImage Image Image from which blobs are extracted
inRoi Region* Range of pixels to be processed
inFrameSize Integer 0 - How many pixels from the region border are excluded from the results
inStdDev Real 0.0 - Amount of smoothing used by the edge filter
inEdgeThreshold Real 0.0 - Sufficient edge strength; edges of that strength will always be detected
inEdgeHysteresis Real 0.0 - Value by which the edge threshold is decreased for edge points neighboring with sufficiently strong edges
inMaxJoiningDistance Real 0.0 - Maximal distance between edges that can be joined
inMinArea Integer 0 - Minimal area of a detected blob
inMaxArea Integer* 0 - Maximal area of a detected blob
inComputeNestingLevels Bool Flag indicating whether nesting levels should be computed
inEdgeClosing Integer 0 - Radius of enclosing small holes in the detected blobs
outBlobs RegionArray Blobs extracted from the input image
outNestingLevels IntegerArray Nesting level of each extracted blob
diagEdgeRegion Region Region of the found edges

Examples

SegmentImage_Edges performed on an image of labels; default parameters.
