Solving mazes with the watershed transform 4

I'd like to welcome back guest blogger Spandan Tiwari for today's post. Spandan, a developer on the Image Processing Toolbox team, posted here previously about circle finding and homomorphic filtering.... read more >>

Watershed transform question from tech support 4

A support call came in this week from a customer trying to use watershed to segment this image: The complaint was that calling watershed did not produce a good segmentation.Today I want to show how... read more >>

Five years of Image Processing Toolbox changes 9

Earlier this week I wrote about the lists I keep of MATLAB and Image Processing Toolbox changes that might be relevant to the material in Digital Image Processing Using MATLAB. I've been keeping... read more >>

Locating the US continental divide, part 7 – Putting it all together

Today is the final post in my continental divide series. In earlier posts I have used the problem of computing the US continental divide as a vehicle for exploring data import, image... read more >>

Locating the US continental divide, part 6 – Final computation and visualization 6

Today's post in my continental divide series demonstrates the final computational step and shows one procedure for visualizing the Pacific and Atlantic catchment basins. In my previous... read more >>

Locating the US continental divide, part 2 – Watershed transform 1

This post is the second in my series on computing the location of the US continental divide. Today I'm going to look at the watershed transform, including how to compute and visualize it... read more >>

Multidimensional Image Processing 15

Every so often someone asks in comp.soft-sys.matlab for a "function like Image Processing Toolbox function foobar that works in 3-D." If I happen to see the post, I will follow up, explaining... read more >>

General connectivity 5

The notion of neighbor connectivity is discussed in most image processing textbooks. Specifically, what is the set of neighbors of a pixel? For example, a commonly-used neighborhood... read more >>

Classification of operations 24

In image processing textbooks, you often see low-level image processing operations grouped into two categories: Point processes Neighborhood processes In a point process, the... read more >>

Cell segmentation 119

Blog reader Ramiro Massol asked for advice on segmenting his cell images, so I gave it a try. I'm not a microscopy expert, though, and I invite readers who have better suggestions than... read more >>
