meijering(image, sigmas=range(1, 10, 2), alpha=None, black_ridges=True, mode='reflect', cval=0)

This filter can be used to detect continuous ridges, e.g. neurites, wrinkles, rivers. It can be used to calculate the fraction of the whole image containing such objects.

Calculates the eigenvectors of the Hessian to compute the similarity of an image region to neurites, according to the method described in .

Parameters

image : (N, M[, ..., P]) ndarray

Array with input image data.

sigmas : iterable of floats, optional

Sigmas used as scales of filter

alpha : float, optional

Frangi correction constant that adjusts the filter's sensitivity to deviation from a plate-like structure.

black_ridges : boolean, optional

When True (the default), the filter detects black ridges; when False, it detects white ridges.

mode : {'constant', 'reflect', 'wrap', 'nearest', 'mirror'}, optional

How to handle values outside the image borders.

cval : float, optional

Used in conjunction with mode 'constant', the value outside the image boundaries.

Returns

out : (N, M[, ..., P]) ndarray

Filtered image (maximum of pixels across all scales).

Filter an image with the Meijering neuriteness filter.

Local connectivity graph

Hover to see nodes names; edges to Self not shown, Caped at 50 nodes.

Using a canvas is more power efficient and can get hundred of nodes ; but does not allow hyperlinks; , arrows or text (beyond on hover)

SVG is more flexible but power hungry; and does not scale well to 50 + nodes.

All aboves nodes referred to, (or are referred from) current nodes; Edges from Self to other have been omitted (or all nodes would be connected to the central node "self" which is not useful). Nodes are colored by the library they belong to, and scaled with the number of references pointing them
