MATLAB: How to get enhanced segmented image

image segmentation

i used roipolyold to select the region i want…. now when i use the below code i get the segmented image and the unwanted image in blue color…. can i change the blue color to black so that i get the perfect segmented output….

    ROI = ROIPOLYOLD(inputImage);
    binaryImage = ROI;
    fontSize=15;
    structBoundaries = bwboundaries(binaryImage);
    xy=structBoundaries{1}; 
    x = xy(:, 2); 
    y = xy(:, 1); 
    outerImage = inputImage;
    outerImage(~binaryImage) = 0;
    leftColumn = min(x);
    rightColumn = max(x);
    topLine = min(y);
    bottomLine = max(y);
    width = rightColumn - leftColumn + 1;
    height = bottomLine - topLine + 1;
    segmentedImage = imcrop(outerImage, [leftColumn, topLine, width, height]);

Best Answer

The binary image is sized for one bitplane, so

outerImage(~binaryImage)

is going to only affect at most the first bitplane of outerImage. You want to have it affect all the bitplanes.

outerImage(repmat(~binaryImage, [1,1, size(outerImage,3))) = 0;

Seems to work for me:

clc;    % Clear the command window.
close all;  % Close all figures (except those of imtool.)
clearvars;
workspace;  % Make sure the workspace panel is showing.
format long g;
format compact;
fontSize = 16;
folder = pwd;
baseFileName = 'image.png';
fullFileName = fullfile(folder, baseFileName);
rgbImage = imread(fullFileName);
% Display the original image.

subplot(2, 2, 1);
imshow(rgbImage, []);
axis('on', 'image');
caption = sprintf('Original Color Image\n"%s"', baseFileName);
title(caption, 'FontSize', fontSize, 'Interpreter', 'None');
drawnow;
hp = impixelinfo(); % Set up status line to see values when you mouse over the image.

% Set up figure properties:
% Enlarge figure to full screen.

% Give a name to the title bar.
set(gcf, 'Name', 'Demo by Image Analyst', 'NumberTitle', 'Off')
% Extract the individual red, green, and blue color channels.
redChannel = rgbImage(:, :, 1);
greenChannel = rgbImage(:, :, 2);
blueChannel = rgbImage(:, :, 3);
% Get the yellow mask.
yellowMask = redChannel == 255 & greenChannel == 255 & blueChannel == 0;

imshow(yellowMask);

% Find the Centroid, Equivalent Circular Diameter, and Bounding Box.
props = regionprops(yellowMask, 'Centroid', 'EquivDiameter', 'BoundingBox');
fprintf('Yellow Box Width = %d.\nYellow Box Height = %d.\n', props.BoundingBox(3), props.BoundingBox(4));
viscircles(props.Centroid, props.EquivDiameter/2);

You can use imfreehand. Then mask your image before or after your operations with a binary image defined by imfreehand. Here is a demo if you need one:

% Demo to have the user freehand draw an irregular shape over
% a gray scale image, have it extract only that part to a new image,
% and to calculate the mean intensity value of the image within that shape.
% Also calculates the perimeter, centroid, and center of mass (weighted centroid).
% Change the current folder to the folder of this m-file.
if(~isdeployed)
  cd(fileparts(which(mfilename)));
end
clc;  % Clear command window.
clear;  % Delete all variables.
close all;  % Close all figure windows except those created by imtool.
imtool close all;  % Close all figure windows created by imtool.
workspace;  % Make sure the workspace panel is showing.
fontSize = 16;
% Read in a standard MATLAB gray scale demo image.
folder = fullfile(matlabroot, '\toolbox\images\imdemos');
baseFileName = 'cameraman.tif';
% Get the full filename, with path prepended.
fullFileName = fullfile(folder, baseFileName);
% Check if file exists.
if ~exist(fullFileName, 'file')
  % File doesn't exist -- didn't find it there.  Check the search path for it.
  fullFileName = baseFileName; % No path this time.
  if ~exist(fullFileName, 'file')
    % Still didn't find it.  Alert user.
    errorMessage = sprintf('Error: %s does not exist in the search path folders.', fullFileName);
    uiwait(warndlg(errorMessage));
    return;
  end
end
grayImage = imread(fullFileName);
imshow(grayImage, []);
axis on;
title('Original Grayscale Image', 'FontSize', fontSize);
set(gcf, 'Position', get(0,'Screensize')); % Maximize figure.
