scikit-image 0.16.2 (2019-10-22)#

We’re happy to announce the release of scikit-image v0.16.2!

scikit-image is an image processing toolbox for SciPy that includes algorithms for segmentation, geometric transformations, color space manipulation, analysis, filtering, morphology, feature detection, and more.

This is a bug fix release that addresses several critical issues from 0.16.1.

Bug fixes#

  • Migrate to networkx 2.x (#4236, #4237)

  • Sync required numpy and dask to runtime versions (#4233, #4239)

scikit-image 0.16.1 (2019-10-11)#

We’re happy to announce the release of scikit-image v0.16.1!

scikit-image is an image processing toolbox for SciPy that includes algorithms for segmentation, geometric transformations, color space manipulation, analysis, filtering, morphology, feature detection, and more.

For more information, examples, and documentation, please visit our website:

https://scikit-image.org

Starting from this release, scikit-image will follow the recently introduced NumPy deprecation policy, NEP 29 <https://github.com/numpy/numpy/blob/master/doc/neps/nep-0029-deprecation_policy.rst>__. Accordingly, scikit-image 0.16 drops support for Python 3.5. This release of scikit-image officially supports Python 3.6 and 3.7.

Special thanks to Matthias Bussonnier for Frappuccino, which helped us catch all API changes and nail down the APIs for new features.

New Features#

Improvements#

API Changes#

Bugfixes#

  • Corrected error with scales attribute in ORB.detect_and_extract (#2835) The scales attribute wasn’t taking into account the mask, and thus was using an incorrect array size.

  • Correct for bias in Inverse Randon Transform (skimage.transform.irandon) (#3067) Fixed by using the Ramp filter equation in the spatial domain as described in the reference

  • Fix a rounding issue that caused a rotated image to have a different size than the input (skimage.transform.rotate) (#3173)

  • RANSAC uses random subsets of the original data and not bootstraps. (#3901, #3915)

  • Canny now produces the same output regardless of dtype (#3919)

  • Geometry Transforms: avoid division by zero & some degenerate cases (#3926)

  • Fixed float32 support in denoise_bilateral and denoise_tv_bregman (#3936)

  • Fixed computation of Meijering filter and avoid ZeroDivisionError (#3957)

  • Fixed skimage.filters.threshold_li to prevent being stuck on stationnary points, and thus at local minima or maxima (#3966)

  • Edited skimage.exposure.rescale_intensity to return input image instead of nans when all 0 (#4015)

  • Fixed skimage.morphology.medial_axis. A wrong indentation in Cython caused the function to not behave as intended. (#4060)

  • Fixed skimage.restoration.denoise_bilateral by correcting the padding in the gaussian filter(#4080)

  • Fixed skimage.measure.find_contours when input image contains NaN. Contours interesting NaN will be left open (#4150)

  • Fixed skimage.feature.blob_log and skimage.feature.blob_dog for 3D images and anisotropic data (#4162)

  • Fixed skimage.exposure.adjust_gamma, skimage.exposure.adjust_log, and skimage.exposure.adjust_sigmoid such that when provided with a 1 by 1 ndarray, it returns 1 by 1 ndarrays and not single number floats (#4169)

Deprecations#

  • Parameter neighbors in skimage.measure.convex_hull_object has been deprecated in favor of connectivity and will be removed in version 0.18.0.

  • The following functions are deprecated in favor of the skimage.metrics module (#4025):

    • skimage.measure.compare_mse

    • skimage.measure.compare_nrmse

    • skimage.measure.compare_psnr

    • skimage.measure.compare_ssim

  • The function skimage.color.guess_spatial_dimensions is deprecated and will be removed in 0.18 (#4031)

  • The argument bc in skimage.segmentation.active_contour is deprecated.

  • The function skimage.data.load is deprecated and will be removed in 0.18 (#4061)

  • The function skimage.transform.match_histogram is deprecated in favor of skimage.exposure.match_histogram (#4107)

  • The parameter neighbors of skimage.morphology.convex_hull_object is deprecated.

  • The skimage.transform.randon_tranform function will convert input image of integer type to float by default in 0.18. To preserve current behaviour, set the new argument preserve_range to True. (#4131)
