Calculate distances from region props centroid data to edge of binary shape

Mostrar comentarios más antiguos
I have a list of centroid coordinates givebn by region props and a binary map of a structure given made by a freehand trace. Any ideas on how to find the distance to the nearest edge of the binary shape?
I need to also have the regionprops area data for each point presered.
let me know what other information I can provide!

Depends on how your objects are shaped, but this should be a start:
inpict = rgb2gray(imread('blobs.png'))>32;
S = regionprops(inpict,'centroid');
C = vertcat(S.Centroid);
dmap = bwdist(inpict); % distance from exterior points to edge
dmapi = bwdist(~inpict); % distance from interior points to edge
% shortest distance to edge for either case
D = interp2(dmap,C(:,1),C(:,2)) + interp2(dmapi,C(:,1),C(:,2))
imshow(inpict,[]); hold on
plot(C(:,1),C(:,2),'x')
Note that depending on the convexity of the object, the centroid may lie inside or outside the object. This method covers both cases.

Again, assuming the "closed boundary" method from the prior example (modify if desired):
S = regionprops(L,'centroid','area');
C = vertcat(S.Centroid);
A = vertcat(S.Area);
dmap = bwdist(addborder(edgemap,[1 1],1)); % distance from exterior points to edge
dmapi = bwdist(addborder(~edgemap,[1 1],1)); % distance from interior points to edge
dmap = cropborder(dmap,[1 1]);
dmapi = cropborder(dmapi,[1 1]);
D = interp2(dmap,C(:,1),C(:,2)) + interp2(dmapi,C(:,1),C(:,2))
out = [C A D]
Of course, that's 4 columns, since the list of centroids is 2 columns. You could also use a table instead:
out = table(C,A,D)

Is this what you mean by "each centroids distance from the edge of 1 object across all of them"?
