Detailed Description

this measure allows to compute changes in the slope of the shape outline

This measure allows to quantified the angularity using the changes in the slope of of a shape outline.

For each tops of the polygonal approximation of shape, we compute an intermediate value given by :

\[ \Delta\theta_i = \left |\theta_{i}-\theta_{i-1}\right | \]

where :

We then compute the histogram of these values using a number of orientation defined by parameter NbOrientations.

The global shape angularity value is then given by following formula :

\[ A=\sum_{i=1}^{m}{\theta_i \times P(i)} \]

where :

Here is an example of degree of angularity 2d computation on few caracteristic shapes :

#Perform the analysis
outMeasureSet = shapeanalysis.labelAnalysis2d(inGreyImg, inLabelImg2d, inMeasureInfoSet2d)
# save results to csv format
PyIPSDK.saveCsvMeasureFile(os.path.join(tmpPath, "shape_analysis_results.csv"), outMeasureSet)
# retrieve measure results
outMsr = outMeasureSet.getMeasure("OutlineSlopeAngularity2dMsr")
# retrieve measure values
outMsrValues = outMsr.getMeasureResult().getColl(0)
print("First label measurement equal " + str(outMsrValues[1]))
