scikit-image 0.23.1 (2024-04-10)#

We’re happy to announce the release of scikit-image 0.23.1!

Note

Due to an issue with the CI system scikit-image 0.23.0 was never released. This release is identical to what 0.23.0 would have been other than the CI fix and the version number.

Highlights#

  • Ensure skimage.morphology.closing and skimage.morphology.opening are extensive and anti-extensive, respectively, if the footprint is not mirror symmetric (#6695).

  • Add parameters mode and cval to erosion, dilation, opening, closing, white_tophat, and black_tophat in skimage.morphology. These new parameters determine how array borders are handled (#6695).

  • Add parameter mode to binary_erosion, binary_dilation, binary_opening and binary_closing in skimage.morphology. These new parameters determine how array borders are handled (#6695).

  • Speedup skimage.util.map_array by parallelization with Cython’s prange (#7266).

New Features#

  • Add new intensity_std property to skimage.measure.regionprops which computes the standard deviation of the intensity in a region (#6712).

  • Add parameters mode and cval to erosion, dilation, opening, closing, white_tophat, and black_tophat in skimage.morphology. These new parameters determine how array borders are handled (#6695).

  • Add parameter mode to binary_erosion, binary_dilation, binary_opening and binary_closing in skimage.morphology. These new parameters determine how array borders are handled (#6695).

  • Add functions mirror_footprint and pad_footprint to skimage.morphology (#6695).

  • Add new parameter spacing to segmentation.expand_labels to support anisotropic images (#7080).

API Changes#

  • Drop support for Python 3.9 (#7217).

  • Parameters shift_x and shift_y in skimage.morphology.erosion and skimage.morphology.dilation are deprecated. Use pad_footprint or modify the footprint manually instead (#6695).

  • Remove unexpected value scaling in skimage.morphology.skeletonize_3d for non-binary input images. skeletonize_3d now always returns a binary array like similar functions (#7095).

  • Deprecate function skimage.feature.plot_matches in favor of skimage.feature.plot_matched_features (#7255).

  • Deprecate skimage.morphology.skeletonize_3d in favor of just skimage.morphology.skeletonize (#7094).

  • Deprecate parameter output in skimage.filters.gaussian; use out instead (#7225).

  • Change the default value of the parameters shift_x, shift_y and shift_z from False to 0 in the skimage.filters.rank functions. This has not impact on the results. Warn in case boolean shifts are provided from now on (#7320).

Performance#

  • Add lazy loading to skimage.metrics module (#7211).

  • Speedup skimage.util.map_array by parallelization with Cython’s prange (#7266).

Bug Fixes#

  • Add exception to avoid surprising result when image is too small for the given parameters in skimage.feature.hog (#7153).

  • Ensure skimage.morphology.closing and skimage.morphology.opening are extensive and anti-extensive, respectively, if the footprint is not mirror symmetric (#6695).

  • Avoid a TypeError in skimage.registration.phase_cross_correlation when the real-time shift cannot be determined (disambiguate=True). Display a warning instead (#7259).

  • Fix logic in skimage.graph.pixel_graph which raised a TypeError when the parameter edge_function was provided without a mask (#7310).

  • Ensure cache stays empty when cache=False is passed to skimage.measure.regionprops (#7333).

Documentation#

  • Update instructions for updating dev environment (#7160).

  • Make titles in RAG gallery examples more explicit (#7202).

  • Remove obsolete instruction about documenting changes (#7321).

  • Added comment to clarify that dt corresponds to tau, i.e. the time step. Changed gray scale in grayscale in the entire registration module (#7324).
