Detailed Description

Class represents segmentation algorithm syncsegm.

syncsegm is a bio-inspired algorithm that is based on double-layer oscillatory network that uses modified Kuramoto model. Algorithm extracts colors and colored objects. It uses only CCORE (C++ implementation of pyclustering) parts to implement the algorithm.

CCORE option is True by default to use sync network in the pyclustering core - C/C++ shared library for processing that significantly increases performance.

Example:

# create oscillatory for image segmentaion - extract colors (radius 128) and objects (radius 4), 
# and ignore noise (segments with size that is less than 10 pixels)
algorithm = syncsegm(128, 4, 10);

# extract segments (colors and objects)
analyser = algorithm(path_to_file);

# obtain segmentation results (only colors - from the first layer)
color_segments = analyser.allocate_colors(0.01, 10);
draw_image_mask_segments(path_to_file, color_segments);

# obtain segmentation results (objects - from the second layer)
object_segments = analyser.allocate_objects(0.01, 10);
draw_image_mask_segments(path_to_file, object_segments);

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

__init__()

def pyclustering.nnet.syncsegm.syncsegm.__init__	(		self,
			color_radius,
			object_radius,
			noise_size = 0,
			ccore = True
	)

Contructor of the oscillatory network SYNC for cluster analysis.

Parameters

[in]	color_radius	(double): Radius of color connectivity (color similarity) for the first layer.
[in]	object_radius	(double): Radius of object connectivity (object similarity) for the second layer, if 'None' then object segmentation is not performed (only color segmentation).
[in]	noise_size	(double): Size of segment that should be considered as a noise and ignored by the second layer.
[in]	ccore	(bool): If 'True' then C/C++ implementation is used to increase performance.

Member Function Documentation

process()

def pyclustering.nnet.syncsegm.syncsegm.process	(		self,
			image_source,
			collect_dynamic = False,
			order_color = 0.9995,
			order_object = 0.999
	)

Performs image segmentation.

Parameters

[in]	image_source	(string): Path to image file that should be processed.
[in]	collect_dynamic	(bool): If 'True' then whole dynamic of each layer of the network is collected.
[in]	order_color	(double): Local synchronization order for the first layer - coloring segmentation.
[in]	order_object	(double): Local synchronization order for the second layer - object segmentation.

Returns

(syncsegm_analyser) Analyser of segmentation results by the network.
