In this article we will see how we can obtain sizes of labelled region in mahotas. Labelled images are integer images where the values correspond to different regions. I.e., region 1 is all of the pixels which have value 1, region two is the pixels with value 2, and so on. By convention, region 0 is the background and often handled differently. We can create a labelled region with the help of mahotas.label method.
In order to do this we will use mahotas.label_size method
Syntax : mahotas.labelled_size(labelled_region)
Argument : It takes numpy.ndarray object as argument i.e labelled region
Return : It returns list of integer
Example 1:
Python3
# importing required libraries import mahotas as mh import numpy as np from pylab import imshow, show # creating region # numpy.ndarray regions = np.zeros(( 10 , 10 ), bool ) # setting 1 value in the region regions[ 1 , 1 ] = 1 regions[ 6 , 6 ] = 1 regions[ 4 , 4 ] = 1 regions[ 9 , 9 ] = 1 # getting labelled function labelled, nr_objects = mh.label(regions) # showing the image with interpolation = 'nearest' imshow(labelled, interpolation = 'nearest' ) show() # getting sizes of labelled region sizes = mh.labelled.labelled_size(labelled) # printing sizes for i in range ( len (sizes)): print ( "Size of region " + str (i) + " : " + str (sizes[i])) |
Output :
Size of region 0 : 96 Size of region 1 : 1 Size of region 2 : 1 Size of region 3 : 1 Size of region 4 : 1
Example 2:
Python3
# importing required libraries import mahotas as mh import numpy as np from pylab import imshow, show # creating region # numpy.ndarray regions = np.zeros(( 10 , 10 ), bool ) # setting 1 value to the region regions[: 3 , : 3 ] = 1 regions[ 6 :, 6 :] = 1 # getting labelled function labelled, nr_objects = mh.label(regions) # showing the image with interpolation = 'nearest' imshow(labelled, interpolation = 'nearest' ) show() # getting sizes of labelled region sizes = mh.labelled.labelled_size(labelled) # printing sizes for i in range ( len (sizes)): print ( "Size of region " + str (i) + " : " + str (sizes[i])) |
Output :
Size of region 0 : 75 Size of region 1 : 9 Size of region 2 : 16
