otsu

otsu

skimage.filters.rank.otsu(image, selem, out=None, mask=None, shift_x=False, shift_y=False) [source]

Local Otsu’s threshold value for each pixel.

Parameters:

image : ndarray Image array (uint8 array). selem : 2-D array The neighborhood expressed as a 2-D array of 1’s and 0’s. out : ndarray If None, a new array will be allocated. mask : ndarray Mask array that defines (>0) area of the image included in the local neighborhood. If None, the complete image is used (default). shift_x, shift_y : int Offset added to the structuring element center point. Shift is bounded to the structuring element sizes (center must be inside the given structuring element).

Returns:

out : 2-D array (same dtype as input image) Output image.
