imclose

imclose(img: np.ndarray, ksize: Union[int, Tuple[int, int]] = (3, 3), kstruct: Union[str, int, "MORPH"] = "MORPH.RECT") -> np.ndarray

• Description: Closing operation: The process of dilation followed by erosion, which can be used to fill small holes inside objects, smooth the edges of objects, connect two objects, etc. For multi-channel images, each channel will be processed independently.

• Parameters

  • img (np.ndarray): Input image.
  • ksize (Union[int, Tuple[int, int]]): Size of the structuring element. Default is (3, 3).
  • kstruct (MORPH): Shape of the element, which can be one of "MORPH.CROSS", "MORPH.RECT", or "MORPH.ELLIPSE". Default is "MORPH.RECT".

• Example

  import numpy as np
  import docsaidkit as D
  
  img = np.array([[1, 1, 1, 0, 0],
                  [1, 1, 1, 0, 0],
                  [1, 1, 1, 0, 0],
                  [0, 0, 0, 0, 0], # <- Look at this row
                  [0, 0, 0, 1, 1],
                  [0, 0, 0, 1, 1]], dtype=np.uint8)
  
  closed_img = D.imclose(img, ksize=3, kstruct='CROSS')
  
  # Kernel will be like this:
  # >>> np.array([[0, 1, 0],
  #               [1, 1, 1],
  #               [0, 1, 0]], dtype=np.uint8)
  
  # After closing, the image will be like this:
  # >>> np.array([[1, 1, 1, 0, 0],
  #               [1, 1, 1, 0, 0],
  #               [1, 1, 1, 0, 0],
  #               [0, 0, 1, 1, 0], # <- 1's are connected
  #               [0, 0, 0, 1, 1],
  #               [0, 0, 0, 1, 1]], dtype=np.uint8)
