ConvexitySee full documentation

Measure the convexity of a shape.

Convexity measure computes the convexity of a shape, that equals to the volume (resp. area) of the 3d (resp. 2d) shape divided by the volume (resp. area) of its convex hull.

This measure is also known as 'Solidity'.

Here is an example of convexity measurement, with "consider holes" parameter set to 'true':

Example of Python code :

Generic example in 2d case :

import PyIPSDK
import PyIPSDK.IPSDKIPLShapeAnalysis as shapeanalysis

    # Create the infoset
    inMeasureInfoSet2d = PyIPSDK.createMeasureInfoSet2d()
    PyIPSDK.createMeasureInfo(inMeasureInfoSet2d, "ConvexityMsr")
    
    #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("ConvexityMsr")
    
    # retrieve measure values
    outMsrValues = outMsr.getMeasureResult().getColl(0)
    print("First label measurement equal " + str(outMsrValues[1]))

Generic example in 3d case :

import PyIPSDK
import PyIPSDK.IPSDKIPLShapeAnalysis as shapeanalysis

    # Create the infoset
    inMeasureInfoSet3d = PyIPSDK.createMeasureInfoSet3d()
    PyIPSDK.createMeasureInfo(inMeasureInfoSet3d, "ConvexityMsr")
    
    #Perform the analysis
    outMeasureSet = shapeanalysis.labelAnalysis3d(inGreyImg, inLabelImg, inMeasureInfoSet3d)
    
    # save results to csv format
    PyIPSDK.saveCsvMeasureFile(os.path.join(tmpPath,  "shape_analysis_results.csv"), outMeasureSet)
    
    # retrieve measure results
    outMsr = outMeasureSet.getMeasure("ConvexityMsr")
    
    # retrieve measure values
    outMsrValues = outMsr.getMeasureResult().getColl(0)
    print("First label measurement equal " + str(outMsrValues[1]))

    // opening grey level input image
    ImagePtr pInGreyImg2d = loadTiffImageFile(inputGreyImgPath);

    // read entity shape 2d collection used for processing
    Shape2dCollPtr pShape2dColl = boost::make_shared<Shape2dColl>();

    // define a measure info set
    MeasureInfoSetPtr pMeasureInfoSet = MeasureInfoSet::create2dInstance();
    createMeasureInfo(pMeasureInfoSet, "ConvexityMsr", createHolesBasicPolicyMsrParams(bProcessHoles));
    
    // compute measure on shape 2d collection
    MeasureSetPtr pOutMeasureSet = shapeAnalysis2d(pInGreyImg2d, pShape2dColl, pMeasureInfoSet);

    // retrieve associated results
    const MeasureConstPtr& pConvexityOutMsr = pOutMeasureSet->getMeasure("ConvexityMsr");
    const ipsdk::shape::analysis::ValueMeasureResult<ipsdk::ipReal64>& outResults = static_cast<const ipsdk::shape::analysis::ValueMeasureResult<ipsdk::ipReal64>&>(pConvexityOutMsr->getMeasureResult());
