np.mean
. Takes dictionary of inputs, e.g.:func_kwargs={'dtype': np.float16})
.
- Returns

Examples
>>> from skimage.measure import block_reduce >>> image = np.arange(3*3*4).reshape(3, 3, 4) >>> image array([[[ 0, 1, 2, 3], [ 4, 5, 6, 7], [ 8, 9, 10, 11]], [[12, 13, 14, 15], [16, 17, 18, 19], [20, 21, 22, 23]], [[24, 25, 26, 27], [28, 29, 30, 31], [32, 33, 34, 35]]]) >>> block_reduce(image, block_size=(3, 3, 1), func=np.mean) array([[[16., 17., 18., 19.]]]) >>> image_max1 = block_reduce(image, block_size=(1, 3, 4), func=np.max) >>> image_max1 array([[[11]], [[23]], [[35]]]) >>> image_max2 = block_reduce(image, block_size=(3, 1, 4), func=np.max) >>> image_max2 array([[[27], [31], [35]]])
euler_number¶
-
skimage.measure.
euler_number
(image, connectivity=None)[source]¶ Calculate the Euler characteristic in binary image.
For 2D objects, the Euler number is the number of objects minus the number of holes. For 3D objects, the Euler number is obtained as the number of objects plus the number of holes, minus the number of tunnels, or loops.
- Parameters
- image: (N, M) ndarray or (N, M, D) ndarray.
2D or 3D images. If image is not binary, all values strictly greater than zero are considered as the object.
- connectivityint, optional
Maximum number of orthogonal hops to consider a pixel/voxel as a neighbor. Accepted values are ranging from 1 to input.ndim. If
None
, a full connectivity ofinput.ndim
is used. 4 or 8 neighborhoods are defined for 2D images (connectivity 1 and 2, respectively). 6 or 26 neighborhoods are defined for 3D images, (connectivity 1 and 3, respectively). Connectivity 2 is not defined.
- Returns
- euler_numberint
Euler characteristic of the set of all objects in the image.
Notes
The Euler characteristic is an integer number that describes the topology of the set of all objects in the input image. If object is 4-connected, then background is 8-connected, and conversely.
The computation of the Euler characteristic is based on an integral geometry formula in discretized space. In practice, a neighbourhood configuration is constructed, and a LUT is applied for each configuration. The coefficients used are the ones of Ohser et al.
It can be useful to compute the Euler characteristic for several connectivities. A large relative difference between results for different connectivities suggests that the image resolution (with respect to the size of objects and holes) is too low.

find_contours¶
-
skimage.measure.
find_contours
(image, level=None, fully_connected='low', positive_orientation='low', *, mask=None)[source]¶ Find iso-valued contours in a 2D array for a given level value.
Uses the “marching squares” method to compute a the iso-valued contours of the input 2D array for a particular level value. Array values are linearly interpolated to provide better precision for the output contours.
- Parameters
- image2D ndarray of double
Input image in which to find contours.
- levelfloat, optional
Value along which to find contours in the array. By default, the level is set to (max(image) + min(image)) / 2
Changed in version 0.18: This parameter is now optional.
- fully_connectedstr, {‘low’, ‘high’}
Indicates whether array elements below the given level value are to be considered fully-connected (and hence elements above the value will only be face connected), or vice-versa. (See notes below for details.)
- positive_orientationstr, {‘low’, ‘high’}
Indicates whether the output contours will produce positively-oriented polygons around islands of low- or high-valued elements. If ‘low’ then contours will wind counter- clockwise around elements below the iso-value. Alternately, this means that low-valued elements are always on the left of the contour. (See below for details.)
- mask2D ndarray of bool, or None
A boolean mask, True where we want to draw contours. Note that NaN values are always excluded from the considered region (
mask
is set toFalse
whereverarray
isNaN
).
- Returns
- contourslist of (n,2)-ndarrays
Each contour is an ndarray of shape
(n, 2)
, consisting of n(row, column)
coordinates along the contour.

Notes
The marching squares algorithm is a special case of the marching cubes algorithm [1]. A simple explanation is available here:
http://users.polytech.unice.fr/~lingrand/MarchingCubes/algo.html
There is a single ambiguous case in the marching squares algorithm: when a given
2 x 2
-element square has two high-valued and two low-valued elements, each pair diagonally adjacent. (Where high- and low-valued is with respect to the contour value sought.) In this case, either the high-valued elements can be ‘connected together’ via a thin isthmus that separates the low-valued elements, or vice-versa. When elements are connected together across a diagonal, they are considered ‘fully connected’ (also known as ‘face+vertex-connected’ or ‘8-connected’). Only high-valued or low-valued elements can be fully-connected, the other set will be considered as ‘face-connected’ or ‘4-connected’. By default, low-valued elements are considered fully-connected; this can be altered with the ‘fully_connected’ parameter.Output contours are not guaranteed to be closed: contours which intersect the array edge or a masked-off region (either where mask is False or where array is NaN) will be left open. All other contours will be closed. (The closed-ness of a contours can be tested by checking whether the beginning point is the same as the end point.)
Contours are oriented. By default, array values lower than the contour value are to the left of the contour and values greater than the contour value are to the right. This means that contours will wind counter-clockwise (i.e. in ‘positive orientation’) around islands of low-valued pixels. This behavior can be altered with the ‘positive_orientation’ parameter.
The order of the contours in the output list is determined by the position of the smallest
x,y
(in lexicographical order) coordinate in the contour. This is a side-effect of how the input array is traversed, but can be relied upon.Warning
Array coordinates/values are assumed to refer to the center of the array element. Take a simple example input:
[0, 1]
. The interpolated position of 0.5 in this array is midway between the 0-element (atx=0
) and the 1-element (atx=1
), and thus would fall atx=0.5
.This means that to find reasonable contours, it is best to find contours midway between the expected “light” and “dark” values. In particular, given a binarized array, do not choose to find contours at the low or high value of the array. This will often yield degenerate contours, especially around structures that are a single array element wide. Instead choose a middle value, as above.

grid_points_in_poly
(shape, verts)[source]¶ Test whether points on a specified grid are inside a polygon.
For each
(r, c)
coordinate on a grid, i.e.(0, 0)
,(0, 1)
etc., test whether that point lies inside a polygon.- Parameters
- shapetuple (M, N)
Shape of the grid.
- verts(V, 2) array
Specify the V vertices of the polygon, sorted either clockwise or anti-clockwise. The first point may (but does not need to be) duplicated.

inertia_tensor¶
-
skimage.measure.
inertia_tensor
(image, mu=None)[source]¶ Compute the inertia tensor of the input image.
- Parameters
- imagearray
The input image.
- muarray, optional
The pre-computed central moments of
image
. The inertia tensor computation requires the central moments of the image. If an application requires both the central moments and the inertia tensor (for example,skimage.measure.regionprops
), then it is more efficient to pre-compute them and pass them to the inertia tensor call.
- Returns
- Tarray, shape
(image.ndim, image.ndim)
The inertia tensor of the input image. \(T_{i, j}\) contains the covariance of image intensity along axes \(i\) and \(j\).
- Tarray, shape

inertia_tensor_eigvals¶
-
skimage.measure.
inertia_tensor_eigvals
(image, mu=None, T=None)[source]¶ Compute the eigenvalues of the inertia tensor of the image.
The inertia tensor measures covariance of the image intensity along the image axes. (See
inertia_tensor
.) The relative magnitude of the eigenvalues of the tensor is thus a measure of the elongation of a (bright) object in the image.- Parameters
- imagearray
The input image.
- muarray, optional
The pre-computed central moments of
image
.- Tarray, shape
(image.ndim, image.ndim)
The pre-computed inertia tensor. If
T
is given,mu
andimage
are ignored.
- Returns
- eigvalslist of float, length
image.ndim
The eigenvalues of the inertia tensor of
image
, in descending order.
- eigvalslist of float, length
Notes
Computing the eigenvalues requires the inertia tensor of the input image. This is much faster if the central moments (
mu
) are provided, or, alternatively, one can provide the inertia tensor (T
) directly.
label¶
-
skimage.measure.
label
(input, background=None, return_num=False, connectivity=None)[source]¶ Label connected regions of an integer array.
Two pixels are connected when they are neighbors and have the same value. In 2D, they can be neighbors either in a 1- or 2-connected sense. The value refers to the maximum number of orthogonal hops to consider a pixel/voxel a neighbor:
1-connectivity 2-connectivity diagonal connection close-up [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] | \ | / | <- hop 2 [ ]--[x]--[ ] [ ]--[x]--[ ] [x]--[ ] | / | \ hop 1 [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ]
- Parameters
- inputndarray of dtype int
Image to label.
- backgroundint, optional
Consider all pixels with this value as background pixels, and label them as 0. By default, 0-valued pixels are considered as background pixels.
- return_numbool, optional
Whether to return the number of assigned labels.
- connectivityint, optional
Maximum number of orthogonal hops to consider a pixel/voxel as a neighbor. Accepted values are ranging from 1 to input.ndim. If
None
, a full connectivity ofinput.ndim
is used.
- Returns
- labelsndarray of dtype int
Labeled array, where all connected regions are assigned the same integer value.
- numint, optional
Number of labels, which equals the maximum label index and is only returned if return_num is True.

marching_cubes
(volume, level=None, *, spacing=(1.0, 1.0, 1.0), gradient_direction='descent', step_size=1, allow_degenerate=True, method='lewiner', mask=None)[source]¶ Marching cubes algorithm to find surfaces in 3d volumetric data.
In contrast with Lorensen et al. approach [2], Lewiner et al. algorithm is faster, resolves ambiguities, and guarantees topologically correct results. Therefore, this algorithm generally a better choice.
- Parameters
- volume(M, N, P) array
Input data volume to find isosurfaces. Will internally be converted to float32 if necessary.
- levelfloat, optional
Contour value to search for isosurfaces in volume. If not given or None, the average of the min and max of vol is used.
- spacinglength-3 tuple of floats, optional
Voxel spacing in spatial dimensions corresponding to numpy array indexing dimensions (M, N, P) as in volume.
- gradient_directionstring, optional
Controls if the mesh was generated from an isosurface with gradient descent toward objects of interest (the default), or the opposite, considering the left-hand rule. The two options are: * descent : Object was greater than exterior * ascent : Exterior was greater than object
- step_sizeint, optional
Step size in voxels. Default 1. Larger steps yield faster but coarser results. The result will always be topologically correct though.
- allow_degeneratebool, optional
Whether to allow degenerate (i.e. zero-area) triangles in the end-result. Default True. If False, degenerate triangles are removed, at the cost of making the algorithm slower.
- method: str, optional
One of ‘lewiner’, ‘lorensen’ or ‘_lorensen’. Specify which of Lewiner et al. or Lorensen et al. method will be used. The ‘_lorensen’ flag correspond to an old implementation that will be deprecated in version 0.19.
- mask(M, N, P) array, optional
Boolean array. The marching cube algorithm will be computed only on True elements. This will save computational time when interfaces are located within certain region of the volume M, N, P-e.g. the top half of the cube-and also allow to compute finite surfaces-i.e. open surfaces that do not end at the border of the cube.
- Returns
- verts(V, 3) array
Spatial coordinates for V unique mesh vertices. Coordinate order matches input volume (M, N, P). If
allow_degenerate
is set to True, then the presence of degenerate triangles in the mesh can make this array have duplicate vertices.- faces(F, 3) array
Define triangular faces via referencing vertex indices from
verts
. This algorithm specifically outputs triangles, so each face has exactly three indices.- normals(V, 3) array
The normal direction at each vertex, as calculated from the data.
- values(V, ) array
Gives a measure for the maximum value of the data in the local region near each vertex. This can be used by visualization tools to apply a colormap to the mesh.
Notes
The algorithm [1] is an improved version of Chernyaev’s Marching Cubes 33 algorithm. It is an efficient algorithm that relies on heavy use of lookup tables to handle the many different cases, keeping the algorithm relatively easy. This implementation is written in Cython, ported from Lewiner’s C++ implementation.
To quantify the area of an isosurface generated by this algorithm, pass verts and faces to
skimage.measure.mesh_surface_area
.Regarding visualization of algorithm output, to contour a volume named myvolume about the level 0.0, using the
mayavi
package:>>> >> from mayavi import mlab >> verts, faces, _, _ = marching_cubes(myvolume, 0.0) >> mlab.triangular_mesh([vert[0] for vert in verts], [vert[1] for vert in verts], [vert[2] for vert in verts], faces) >> mlab.show()
Similarly using the
visvis
package:>>> >> import visvis as vv >> verts, faces, normals, values = marching_cubes(myvolume, 0.0) >> vv.mesh(np.fliplr(verts), faces, normals, values) >> vv.use().Run()
To reduce the number of triangles in the mesh for better performance, see this example using the
mayavi
package.References

marching_cubes_classic
(volume, level=None, spacing=(1.0, 1.0, 1.0), gradient_direction='descent')[source]¶ Classic marching cubes algorithm to find surfaces in 3d volumetric data.
Note that the
marching_cubes()
algorithm is recommended over this algorithm, because it’s faster and produces better results.- Parameters
- volume(M, N, P) array of doubles
Input data volume to find isosurfaces. Will be cast to np.float64.
- levelfloat
Contour value to search for isosurfaces in volume. If not given or None, the average of the min and max of vol is used.
- spacinglength-3 tuple of floats
Voxel spacing in spatial dimensions corresponding to numpy array indexing dimensions (M, N, P) as in volume.
- gradient_directionstring

Notes
The marching cubes algorithm is implemented as described in [1]. A simple explanation is available here:
http://users.polytech.unice.fr/~lingrand/MarchingCubes/algo.html
There are several known ambiguous cases in the marching cubes algorithm. Using point labeling as in [1], Figure 4, as shown:
v8 ------ v7 / | / | y / | / | ^ z v4 ------ v3 | | / | v5 ----|- v6 |/ (note: NOT right handed!) | / | / ----> x | / | / v1 ------ v2
Most notably, if v4, v8, v2, and v6 are all >= level (or any generalization of this case) two parallel planes are generated by this algorithm, separating v4 and v8 from v2 and v6. An equally valid interpretation would be a single connected thin surface enclosing all four points. This is the best known ambiguity, though there are others.
This algorithm does not attempt to resolve such ambiguities; it is a naive implementation of marching cubes as in [1], but may be a good beginning for work with more recent techniques (Dual Marching Cubes, Extended Marching Cubes, Cubic Marching Squares, etc.).
Because of interactions between neighboring cubes, the isosurface(s) generated by this algorithm are NOT guaranteed to be closed, particularly for complicated contours. Furthermore, this algorithm does not guarantee a single contour will be returned. Indeed, ALL isosurfaces which cross level will be found, regardless of connectivity.
The output is a triangular mesh consisting of a set of unique vertices and connecting triangles. The order of these vertices and triangles in the output list is determined by the position of the smallest
x,y,z
(in lexicographical order) coordinate in the contour. This is a side-effect of how the input array is traversed, but can be relied upon.The generated mesh guarantees coherent orientation as of version 0.12.

- values(V, ) array
Gives a measure for the maximum value of the data in the local region near each vertex. This can be used by visualization tools to apply a colormap to the mesh.
Notes
The algorithm [1] is an improved version of Chernyaev’s Marching Cubes 33 algorithm. It is an efficient algorithm that relies on heavy use of lookup tables to handle the many different cases, keeping the algorithm relatively easy. This implementation is written in Cython, ported from Lewiner’s C++ implementation.
To quantify the area of an isosurface generated by this algorithm, pass verts and faces to
skimage.measure.mesh_surface_area
.Regarding visualization of algorithm output, to contour a volume named myvolume about the level 0.0, using the
mayavi
package:>>> from mayavi import mlab >>> verts, faces, normals, values = marching_cubes_lewiner(myvolume, 0.0) >>> mlab.triangular_mesh([vert[0] for vert in verts], ... [vert[1] for vert in verts], ... [vert[2] for vert in verts], ... faces) >>> mlab.show()
Similarly using the
visvis
package:>>> import visvis as vv >>> verts, faces, normals, values = marching_cubes_lewiner(myvolume, 0.0) >>> vv.mesh(np.fliplr(verts), faces, normals, values) >>> vv.use().Run()

As seen above, for symmetric objects, odd-order moments (columns 1 and 3, rows 1 and 3) are zero when centered on the centroid, or center of mass, of the object (the default). If we break the symmetry by adding a new point, this no longer holds:
>>> coords2 = np.concatenate((coords, [[17, 17]]), axis=0) >>> np.round(moments_coords_central(coords2), ... decimals=2) array([[17. , 0. , 22.12, -2.49], [ 0. , 3.53, 1.73, 7.4 ], [25.88, 6.02, 36.63, 8.83], [ 4.15, 19.17, 14.8 , 39.6 ]])
Image moments and central image moments are equivalent (by definition) when the center is (0, 0):
>>> np.allclose(moments_coords(coords), ... moments_coords_central(coords, (0, 0))) True

perimeter_crofton¶
-
skimage.measure.
perimeter_crofton
(image, directions=4)[source]¶ Calculate total Crofton perimeter of all objects in binary image.
- Parameters
- image(N, M) ndarray
2D image. If image is not binary, all values strictly greater than zero are considered as the object.
- directions2 or 4, optional
Number of directions used to approximate the Crofton perimeter. By default, 4 is used: it should be more accurate than 2. Computation time is the same in both cases.
- Returns
- perimeterfloat
Total perimeter of all objects in binary image.
Notes
This measure is based on Crofton formula [1], which is a measure from integral geometry. It is defined for general curve length evaluation via a double integral along all directions. In a discrete space, 2 or 4 directions give a quite good approximation, 4 being more accurate than 2 for more complex shapes.
Similar to
perimeter()
, this function returns an approximation of the perimeter in continuous space.References

Examples
>>> x = np.array([[1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2]]) >>> img = np.vstack([np.zeros_like(x), x, x, x, np.zeros_like(x)]) >>> img array([[0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2], [1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2], [1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]]) >>> profile_line(img, (2, 1), (2, 4)) array([1., 1., 2., 2.]) >>> profile_line(img, (1, 0), (1, 6), cval=4) array([1., 1., 1., 2., 2., 2., 4.])

ransac
(data, model_class, min_samples, residual_threshold, is_data_valid=None, is_model_valid=None, max_trials=100, stop_sample_num=inf, stop_residuals_sum=0, stop_probability=1, random_state=None, initial_inliers=None)[source]¶ Fit a model to data with the RANSAC (random sample consensus) algorithm.
RANSAC is an iterative algorithm for the robust estimation of parameters from a subset of inliers from the complete data set. Each iteration performs the following tasks:
Select min_samples random samples from the original data and check whether the set of data is valid (see is_data_valid).
Estimate a model to the random subset (model_cls.estimate(*data[random_subset]) and check whether the estimated model is valid (see is_model_valid).
Classify all data as inliers or outliers by calculating the residuals to the estimated model (model_cls.residuals(*data)) - all data samples with residuals smaller than the residual_threshold are considered as inliers.
Save estimated model as best model if number of inlier samples is maximal. In case the current estimated model has the same number of inliers, it is only considered as the best model if it has less sum of residuals.
These steps are performed either a maximum number of times or until one of the special stop criteria are met. The final model is estimated using all inlier samples of the previously determined best model.
- Parameters
- data[list, tuple of] (N, …) array
Data set to which the model is fitted, where N is the number of data points and the remaining dimension are depending on model requirements. If the model class requires multiple input data arrays (e.g. source and destination coordinates of
skimage.transform.AffineTransform
), they can be optionally passed as tuple or list. Note, that in this case the functionsestimate(*data)
,residuals(*data)
,is_model_valid(model, *random_data)
andis_data_valid(*random_data)
must all take each data array as separate arguments.- model_classobject
Object with the following object methods:
success = estimate(*data)
residuals(*data)
where success indicates whether the model estimation succeeded (True or None for success, False for failure).
- min_samplesint in range (0, N)
The minimum number of data points to fit a model to.
- residual_thresholdfloat larger than 0
Maximum distance for a data point to be classified as an inlier.
- is_data_validfunction, optional
This function is called with the randomly selected data before the model is fitted to it: is_data_valid(*random_data).
- is_model_validfunction, optional
This function is called with the estimated model and the randomly selected data: is_model_valid(model, *random_data), .
- max_trialsint, optional
Maximum number of iterations for random sample selection.
- stop_sample_numint, optional
Stop iteration if at least this number of inliers are found.
- stop_residuals_sumfloat, optional
Stop iteration if sum of residuals is less than or equal to this threshold.
- stop_probabilityfloat in range [0, 1], optional
RANSAC iteration stops if at least one outlier-free set of the training data is sampled with
probability >= stop_probability
, depending on the current best model’s inlier ratio and the number of trials. This requires to generate at least N samples (trials):N >= log(1 - probability) / log(1 - e**m)
where the probability (confidence) is typically set to a high value such as 0.99, e is the current fraction of inliers w.r.t. the total number of samples, and m is the min_samples value.
- random_stateint, RandomState instance or None, optional
If int, random_state is the seed used by the random number generator; If RandomState instance, random_state is the random number generator; If None, the random number generator is the RandomState instance used by np.random.
- initial_inliersarray-like of bool, shape (N,), optional
Initial samples selection for model estimation
- Returns
- modelobject
Best model with largest consensus set.
- inliers(N, ) array
Boolean mask of inliers classified as
True

regionprops¶
-
skimage.measure.
regionprops
(label_image, intensity_image=None, cache=True, coordinates=None, *, extra_properties=None)[source]¶ Measure properties of labeled image regions.
- Parameters
- label_image(M, N[, P]) ndarray
Labeled input image. Labels with value 0 are ignored.
Changed in version 0.14.1: Previously,
label_image
was processed bynumpy.squeeze
and so any number of singleton dimensions was allowed. This resulted in inconsistent handling of images with singleton dimensions. To recover the old behaviour, useregionprops(np.squeeze(label_image), ...)
.- intensity_image(M, N[, P][, C]) ndarray, optional
Intensity (i.e., input) image with same size as labeled image, plus optionally an extra dimension for multichannel data. Default is None.
Changed in version 0.18.0: The ability to provide an extra dimension for channels was added.
- cachebool, optional
Determine whether to cache calculated properties. The computation is much faster for cached properties, whereas the memory consumption increases.
- coordinatesDEPRECATED
This argument is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of scikit-image.
See Coordinate conventions for more details.
Deprecated since version 0.16.0: Use “rc” coordinates everywhere. It may be sufficient to call
numpy.transpose
on your label image to get the same values as 0.15 and earlier. However, for some properties, the transformation will be less trivial. For example, the new orientation is \(\frac{\pi}{2}\) plus the old orientation.- extra_propertiesIterable of callables
Add extra property computation functions that are not included with skimage. The name of the property is derived from the function name, the dtype is inferred by calling the function on a small sample. If the name of an extra property clashes with the name of an existing property the extra property wil not be visible and a UserWarning is issued. A property computation function must take a region mask as its first argument. If the property requires an intensity image, it must accept the intensity image as the second argument.
- Returns
- propertieslist of RegionProperties
Each item describes one labeled region, and can be accessed using the attributes listed below.

Add custom measurements by passing functions as

regionprops_table¶
-
skimage.measure.
regionprops_table
(label_image, intensity_image=None, properties=('label', 'bbox'), *, cache=True, separator='-', extra_properties=None)[source]¶ Compute image properties and return them as a pandas-compatible table.
The table is a dictionary mapping column names to value arrays. See Notes section below for details.
New in version 0.16.
- Parameters
- label_image(N, M[, P]) ndarray
Labeled input image. Labels with value 0 are ignored.
- intensity_image(M, N[, P][, C]) ndarray, optional
Intensity (i.e., input) image with same size as labeled image, plus optionally an extra dimension for multichannel data. Default is None.
Changed in version 0.18.0: The ability to provide an extra dimension for channels was added.
- propertiestuple or list of str, optional
Properties that will be included in the resulting dictionary For a list of available properties, please see
regionprops()
. Users should remember to add “label” to keep track of region identities.- cachebool, optional
Determine whether to cache calculated properties. The computation is much faster for cached properties, whereas the memory consumption increases.
- separatorstr, optional
For non-scalar properties not listed in OBJECT_COLUMNS, each element will appear in its own column, with the index of that element separated from the property name by this separator. For example, the inertia tensor of a 2D region will appear in four columns:
inertia_tensor-0-0
,inertia_tensor-0-1
,inertia_tensor-1-0
, andinertia_tensor-1-1
(where the separator is-
).Object columns are those that cannot be split in this way because the number of columns would change depending on the object. For example,
image
andcoords
.- extra_propertiesIterable of callables
Add extra property computation functions that are not included with skimage. The name of the property is derived from the function name, the dtype is inferred by calling the function on a small sample. If the name of an extra property clashes with the name of an existing property the extra property wil not be visible and a UserWarning is issued. A property computation function must take a region mask as its first argument. If the property requires an intensity image, it must accept the intensity image as the second argument.
- Returns
- out_dictdict
Dictionary mapping property names to an array of values of that property, one value per region. This dictionary can be used as input to pandas
DataFrame
to map property names to columns in the frame and regions to rows. If the image has no regions, the arrays will have length 0, but the correct type.
Notes
Each column contains either a scalar property, an object property, or an element in a multidimensional array.
Properties with scalar values for each region, such as “eccentricity”, will appear as a float or int array with that property name as key.
Multidimensional properties of fixed size for a given image dimension, such as “centroid” (every centroid will have three elements in a 3D image, no matter the region size), will be split into that many columns, with the name {property_name}{separator}{element_num} (for 1D properties), {property_name}{separator}{elem_num0}{separator}{elem_num1} (for 2D properties), and so on.
For multidimensional properties that don’t have a fixed size, such as “image” (the image of a region varies in size depending on the region size), an object array will be used, with the corresponding property name as the key.
Examples
>>> from skimage import data, util, measure >>> image = data.coins() >>> label_image = measure.label(image > 110, connectivity=image.ndim) >>> props = measure.regionprops_table(label_image, image, ... properties=['label', 'inertia_tensor', ... 'inertia_tensor_eigvals']) >>> props {'label': array([ 1, 2, ...]), ... 'inertia_tensor-0-0': array([ 4.012...e+03, 8.51..., ...]), ... ..., 'inertia_tensor_eigvals-1': array([ 2.67...e+02, 2.83..., ...])}
The resulting dictionary can be directly passed to pandas, if installed, to obtain a clean DataFrame:
>>> import pandas as pd >>> data = pd.DataFrame(props) >>> data.head() label inertia_tensor-0-0 ... inertia_tensor_eigvals-1 0 1 4012.909888 ... 267.065503 1 2 8.514739 ... 2.834806 2 3 0.666667 ... 0.000000 3 4 0.000000 ... 0.000000 4 5 0.222222 ... 0.111111
[5 rows x 7 columns]
If we want to measure a feature that does not come as a built-in property, we can define custom functions and pass them as
extra_properties
. For example, we can create a custom function that measures the intensity quartiles in a region:>>> from skimage import data, util, measure >>> import numpy as np >>> def quartiles(regionmask, intensity): ... return np.percentile(intensity[regionmask], q=(25, 50, 75)) >>> >>> image = data.coins() >>> label_image = measure.label(image > 110, connectivity=image.ndim) >>> props = measure.regionprops_table(label_image, intensity_image=image, ... properties=('label',), ... extra_properties=(quartiles,)) >>> import pandas as pd >>> pd.DataFrame(props).head() label quartiles-0 quartiles-1 quartiles-2 0 1 117.00 123.0 130.0 1 2 111.25 112.0 114.0 2 3 111.00 111.0 111.0 3 4 111.00 111.5 112.5 4 5 112.50 113.0 114.0

CircleModel
¶
-
class
skimage.measure.
CircleModel
[source]¶ Bases:
skimage.measure.fit.BaseModel
Total least squares estimator for 2D circles.
The functional model of the circle is:
r**2 = (x - xc)**2 + (y - yc)**2
This estimator minimizes the squared distances from all points to the circle:
min{ sum((r - sqrt((x_i - xc)**2 + (y_i - yc)**2))**2) }
A minimum number of 3 points is required to solve for the parameters.
Examples

EllipseModel
¶
-
class
skimage.measure.
EllipseModel
[source]¶ Bases:
skimage.measure.fit.BaseModel
Total least squares estimator for 2D ellipses.
The functional model of the ellipse is:
xt = xc + a*cos(theta)*cos(t) - b*sin(theta)*sin(t) yt = yc + a*sin(theta)*cos(t) + b*cos(theta)*sin(t) d = sqrt((x - xt)**2 + (y - yt)**2)
where
(xt, yt)
is the closest point on the ellipse to(x, y)
. Thus d is the shortest distance from the point to the ellipse.The estimator is based on a least squares minimization. The optimal solution is computed directly, no iterations are required. This leads to a simple, stable and robust fitting method.
The
params
attribute contains the parameters in the following order:xc, yc, a, b, theta
Examples
>>> xy = EllipseModel().predict_xy(np.linspace(0, 2 * np.pi, 25), ... params=(10, 15, 4, 8, np.deg2rad(30))) >>> ellipse = EllipseModel() >>> ellipse.estimate(xy) True >>> np.round(ellipse.params, 2) array([10. , 15. , 4. , 8. , 0.52]) >>> np.round(abs(ellipse.residuals(xy)), 5) array([0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0.])
