mia-2dsegment-per-pixel-kmeans(1) General Commands Manual mia-2dsegment-per-pixel-kmeans(1)

NAME

mia-2dsegment-per-pixel-kmeans - Run a k-means segmentation of a 2D image.

SYNOPSIS

mia-2dsegment-per-pixel-kmeans -i <in-file> -o <out-file> [options]

DESCRIPTION

mia-2dsegment-per-pixel-kmeans This program runs the segmentation of a 2D image by applying a localized k-means approach that helps to overcome intensity inhomogeneities in the image. The approach evaluates a global k-means clustering, and then separates the image into overlapping regions where more k-means iterations are run only including the locally present classes, i.e. the classes that relatively contain more pixels than a given threshold.

OPTIONS

File-IO

image to be segmented
For supported file types see PLUGINS:2dimage/io
class label image based on merging local labels
For supported file types see PLUGINS:2dimage/io

Parameters

Window size around the pixel to be analyzed

Number of intensity classes to segment

Number of intensity classes to segment

Processing

Maxiumum number of threads to use for processing,This number should be lower or equal to the number of logical processor cores in the machine. (-1: automatic estimation).

PLUGINS: 2dimage/io

BMP 2D-image input/output support. The plug-in supports reading and writing of binary images and 8-bit gray scale images. read-only support is provided for 4-bit gray scale images. The color table is ignored and the pixel values are taken as literal gray scale values.

Recognized file extensions: .BMP, .bmp

Supported element types:
binary data, unsigned 8 bit

Virtual IO to and from the internal data pool

Recognized file extensions: .@

2D image io for DICOM

Recognized file extensions: .DCM, .dcm

Supported element types:
signed 16 bit, unsigned 16 bit

a 2dimage io plugin for OpenEXR images

Recognized file extensions: .EXR, .exr

Supported element types:
unsigned 32 bit, floating point 32 bit

a 2dimage io plugin for jpeg gray scale images

Recognized file extensions: .JPEG, .JPG, .jpeg, .jpg

Supported element types:
unsigned 8 bit

a 2dimage io plugin for png images

Recognized file extensions: .PNG, .png

Supported element types:
binary data, unsigned 8 bit, unsigned 16 bit

RAW 2D-image output support

Recognized file extensions: .RAW, .raw

Supported element types:
binary data, signed 8 bit, unsigned 8 bit, signed 16 bit, unsigned 16 bit, signed 32 bit, unsigned 32 bit, floating point 32 bit, floating point 64 bit

TIFF 2D-image input/output support

Recognized file extensions: .TIF, .TIFF, .tif, .tiff

Supported element types:
binary data, unsigned 8 bit, unsigned 16 bit, unsigned 32 bit

a 2dimage io plugin for vista images

Recognized file extensions: .-, .V, .VISTA, .v, .vista

Supported element types:
binary data, signed 8 bit, unsigned 8 bit, signed 16 bit, unsigned 16 bit, signed 32 bit, unsigned 32 bit, floating point 32 bit, floating point 64 bit

EXAMPLE

Run the segmentation on image test.png using three classes, local regions of 40 pixels (grid width 20 pixels), and a class ignore threshold of 0.01.

mia-2dsegment-per-pixel-kmeans -i test.png -o label.png -n 3 -g 20 -t 0.01
