mia-2dstack-cmeans-presegment(1) General Commands Manual mia-2dstack-cmeans-presegment(1)

NAME

mia-2dstack-cmeans-presegment - Pre-classify the input image series by using a c-means estimator

SYNOPSIS

mia-2dstack-cmeans-presegment -i <in-file> -o <out-mask> -L <label> [options]

DESCRIPTION

mia-2dstack-cmeans-presegment This program first evaluates a sparse histogram of an input image series, then runs a c-means classification over the histogram, and then estimates the mask for one (given) class based on class probabilities. This program accepts only images of eight or 16 bit integer pixels.

OPTIONS

File-IO

input image(s) to be filtered
For supported file types see PLUGINS:2dimage/io
Save probability map to this file

output file name type

output file name base

Parameters

Percent of the extrem parts of the histogram to be collapsed into the respective last histogram bin.

C-means class initializer
For supported plugins see PLUGINS:1d/cmeans
Probability threshold value to consider a pixel as seed pixel.

Class label to create the mask from

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: 1d/cmeans

C-Means initializer that sets the initial class centers as evenly distributed over [0,1], supported parameters are:

nc =(required, ulong)
Number of classes to use for the fuzzy-cmeans classification.

C-Means initializer that sets the initial class centers by using a k-means classification, supported parameters are:

nc =(required, ulong)
Number of classes to use for the fuzzy-cmeans classification.

C-Means initializer that sets pre-defined values for the initial class centers, supported parameters are:

cc =(required, vdouble)
Initial class centers fuzzy-cmeans classification (normalized to range [0,1]).

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.

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

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

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 program over images imageXXXX.png with the sparse histogram, threshold the lower 30% bins (if available), run cmeans with two classes on the non-zero pixels and then create the mask for class 1 as foregroundXXXX.png.

mia-2dstack-cmeans-presegment -i imageXXXX.png -o foreground -t png --histogram-tresh=30 --classes 2 --label 1
