binary_blobs

skimage.data.binary_blobs(length=512, blob_size_fraction=0.1, n_dim=2, volume_fraction=0.5, seed=None) [source]

Generate synthetic binary image with several rounded blob-like objects.

Parameters:

length : int, optional Linear size of output image. blob_size_fraction : float, optional Typical linear size of blob, as a fraction of length, should be smaller than 1. n_dim : int, optional Number of dimensions of output image. volume_fraction : float, default 0.5 Fraction of image pixels covered by the blobs (where the output is 1). Should be in [0, 1]. seed : int, optional Seed to initialize the random number generator.

Returns:

blobs : ndarray of bools Output binary image
