Signature

   def     _remove_objects_by_distance (    out    ,    border_indices    ,    inner_indices    ,    kdtree    ,    p_norm    ,    min_distance    ,    shape      )

Summary

Remove objects, in specified order, until remaining are a minimum distance apart.

Extended Summary

Remove labeled objects from an image until the remaining ones are spaced more than a given distance from one another. By default, smaller objects are removed first.

Parameters

out: An array with labels for each object in image matching it in shape.
border_indices, inner_indices: Indices into out for the border of objects (border_indices) and the inner part of objects (inner_indices). border_indices determines the iteration order; objects that are indexed first are preserved. Indices must be sorted such, that indices pointing to the same object are next to each other.
kdtree : scipy.spatial.cKDTree: A KDTree containing the coordinates of all objects in image.
min_distance: The minimal allowed distance between objects.
p_norm: The Minkowski p-norm used to calculate the distance between objects. Defaults to 2 which corresponds to the Euclidean distance.
shape: The shape of the unraveled image.
