sk_chan_vese — 2D segmentation op

Data kinds: imageregion

Call: fullseye.apply(img, "sk_chan_vese", a=0.5, b=0.5) (the 2-D model is one image plus two scalar knobs a,b∈[0,1])

sk_chan_vese: input → output

*The figure is the actual output on a synthetic 128×128 input. Left: input, right: output. Point clouds are drawn as a top-down scatter (brightness = z), 1-D series as a line plot, volumes as the maximum-intensity projection along z, videos as the middle frame, complex images as magnitude; return values that are not pictures are shown as the values themselves.*

Sweeping knob a (0.1 / 0.5 / 0.9, the other knob at its default):

sk_chan_vese: knob a sweep (docs site)

*Knob b does not change the output (measured: identical at 0.1 / 0.5 / 0.9).*

On other images (synthetic scene / photo / coins. Top row: inputs, bottom row: their outputs. Knobs at default):

sk_chan_vese: other inputs (docs site)

*The 4th column is a colour (H,W,3) input. This op handles colour without crossing channels (it does not convolve the colour channel as a third spatial axis).*

Usage

Chan-Vese segmentation. An active contour model that iteratively moves a level set so that the brightness variance within each region is minimized, allowing detection of regions even for objects without sharp edges.

HALCON に直接対応するものは無い。実装は `segmentation.chan_vese(v, mu=0.1+0.4*a, max_num_iter=60)` —— a は'edge length' 重み mu を 0.1〜0.5 に振る(大きいほど輪郭が丸く滑らかになり細部を無視しやすくなる)。反復回数は 60 に固定。b は未使用。初期レベルセットは既定の 'checkerboard'(チェッカーボード状)。
