The IJBlob library indentifying connected components in binary images. The algorithm used for connected component labeling is:

Chang, F. (2004). A linear-time component-labeling algorithm using contour tracing technique. Computer Vision and Image Understanding, 93(2), 206–220. doi:10.1016/j.cviu.2003.09.002


The ImageJ *Shape Filter Plugin* (see downloads) uses this library for flitering the blobs by its shape.

If you are using IJBlob in a scientific publication, please cite:

Wagner, T and Lipinski, H 2013. IJBlob: An ImageJ Library for Connected Component Analysis and Shape Analysis. Journal of Open Research Software 1(1):e6, DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5334/jors.ae

Features

  • Extract the outer contour of each blob.
  • Extracts also all inner contours of each blob (holes).
  • Detects also nested objects (blob in blob).
  • Calculates BasicFeatures (see wiki) of the blob.
