MorphoLibJ: integrated library and plugins for mathematical morphology with ImageJDavid Legland,Ignacio Arganda-Carreras,Philippe AndreyBioinformatics, 2016 View paper
Description
MorphoLibJ is a collection of mathematical morphology methods and plugins for ImageJ, created at INRA-IJPB Modeling and Digital Imaging lab.
The library implements several functionalities that were missing in ImageJ, and that were not or only partially covered by other plugins. Namely:
- Morphological filtering for 2D/3D and binary or grey level images: erosion & dilation, closing & opening, morphological gradient & Laplacian, top-hat…
- Morphological reconstruction, for 2D/3D and binary or grey level images, allowing fast detection of regional or extended extrema, removing of borders, hole filling, attribute filtering…
- Watershed segmentation + GUI, making it possible to segment 2D/3D images of (for instance) cell tissues.
- 2D/3D measurements: photometric (intensity) and morphometric measurements such as volume, surface area, inertia ellipse/ellipsoid…
- Binary / label images utilities for removing or keeping largest connected component, perform size opening, fill holes, kill borders…
