Dear all,

sorry about the worse problem description! I tried this example with different parameters for SLIC and graph.cut_threshold but none of them gave me satisfying results.

I attached the original image, the ImageJ SRM (Q=25) output and the RAG output (segmentation.slic(img, compactness=20; n_segments=400), graph.cut_threshold(labels1, g, 10))

The results are quite different, obviously I am doing something wrong. My aim is to segment each leaf separately. At the moment I am using felzenszwalb, which gives me quite reasonable results. However I would like to try everything possible and therefore I would appreciate some tips.

Thank you for the explanation of the algorithm, that was helpful.

Best regards,

Stefanie

Hi Stefanie,

Sorry, these responses should all be CCd to the list, so that others can benefit from the discussion — my bad for dropping that thread. Could you please:

- provide an example segmentation where skimage is doing worse than Fiji
- provide the script and parameter settings for both

Then we can help troubleshoot. I don’t know what you mean by the results “were very strange”, for example, so it’s hard to diagnose the problem. =)

Starting to merge directly from pixels, as the Fiji plugin does, is expensive and can be error prone. SLIC is a fast, initial pixel merging step, from which we can merge regions according to various criteria. With the right parameters, SLIC + RAG mean color agglomeration should give quite similar results to Fiji’s approach…

Juan.

Hi Juan,

thank you for your reply! I have seen and tested the RAG examples but I did not understand the SLIC step and the results were very strange... Is there any advantage? I am using SLIC anyway at the moment but the statistical region merging of ImageJ gives me better results.

Thanks

Stefanie

Hi Stefanie!

Have a look at skimage.future.graph! There are some relevant examples in the gallery, too:

http://scikit-image.org/docs/dev/auto_examples/#segmentation-of-objects

The future.graph API is still experimental (that’s why it’s in “future”), so we really appreciate any feedback you have about it!

Juan.

Hi!

I am looking for a statistical region merging segmentation. Is there anything like this in skimage?

Thanks in advance,

Stefanie
