Incidentally, it seems you are just doing SLIC on a non-RGB image... Which SLIC supports. (skimage.segmentation.slic). The "compactness" parameter changes the weighting of intensity and space. On Tue, Nov 24, 2015 at 11:19 AM, Hakim Benoudjit wrote:

Hi Jonas,

Thanks for your response. That's exactly what I've tried this week-end, by adding the (x, y) to gray-level intensity and giving the matrix of 3-components vector as input to k-means. As for the normalization, I applied this formula to each column (intensity, x, y): (value - mean) / std_dev. But, even with this normalization step, adding the (x, y) coordinates will influence the pixels on the left (resp. right) to be grouped together (See http://imgur.com/HxfkRig and original image taken from http://uk.mathworks.com/help/images/texture-segmentation-using-gabor-filters... ).

Maybe I will need to find another normalization to apply of the (intensity, x, y) space.

Hi Hakim,

Have you tried just adding the coordinates of a pixel to its features? For each pixel, the features would then be R,G,B,X,Y. From your description, that seems what you're looking for.

So if you have an RGB image I (so that I.shape = (height,width,3)), you can do:

y,x = np.mgrid[:height,:width] I_stacked = np.dstack((I,x,y)) data = I_stacked.reshape((-1,5))

... and then use "data" as input to your clustering algorithm.

You might want to scale / normalize the coordinates to fit the general range of your color values -- but in general, this should do what I think you're looking for.

Cheers, -Jonas

Hi Juan,

Thanks for your answer, this seems to be a nice algorithm for the denoising of speckle. But actually I'm looking for an image clustering (segmentation) technique instead (that would take into consideration the spatial context of pixels).

Hey Hakim,

The right answer here depends on your ultimate goal. If you're after denoising, non-local means denoising (recently added to skimage) sounds like exactly what you're after.

Juan.

Hi Stéfan,

Thanks for your reponse. What I'm looking for is a *spatial criteria* that encourages the *clustering algorithm* (K-means or others) to group together similar *neighbouring pixels* inside the same cluster. This will help avoid having persistent noise inside a cluster.

Hi,

Is there a clustering algorithm implemented in *scikit-image *that perform the image clustering by taking into account the *spatial context *of the clustered pixel (its neighbourhood), besides its *pixel brightness*?

For the time being, I'm clustering images by reshaping them as vectors of pixels intensities distributions, and then performing the *K-means *or *Gaussian mixture models* implemented in *scikit-learn*. But, I'm looking for a image clustering technique implemented (or could be implemented) in *scikit-image *that would consider the neighbourhood of a pixel when classifying it.

Thanks.
