如果只需要(半个)连续区域,则Python中已经有一个简单的实现:SciPy的ndimage.morphology模块。这是相当常见的图像形态学操作。
基本上,您有5个步骤:
def find_paws(data, smooth_radius=5, threshold=0.0001):
data = sp.ndimage.uniform_filter(data, smooth_radius)
thresh = data > threshold
filled = sp.ndimage.morphology.binary_fill_holes(thresh)
coded_paws, num_paws = sp.ndimage.label(filled)
data_slices = sp.ndimage.find_objects(coded_paws)
return object_slices
稍微模糊输入数据,以确保脚掌有连续的足迹。(仅使用更大的内核(structure
各种scipy.ndimage.morphology
功能的争夺者)会更有效率,但是由于某些原因,它不能正常工作...)
阈值数组,这样您就可以得到一个压力超过某个阈值(例如thresh = data > value
)的布尔数组
填充所有内部孔,以使区域更干净(filled = sp.ndimage.morphology.binary_fill_holes(thresh)
)
找到单独的连续区域(coded_paws, num_paws = sp.ndimage.label(filled)
)。这将返回一个数组,其中的区域用数字编码(每个区域都是唯一整数的连续区域(直到爪数为1),其他所有位置均为零)。
使用隔离相邻区域data_slices = sp.ndimage.find_objects(coded_paws)
。这将返回slice
对象元组的列表,因此您可以使用来获取每个爪子的数据区域[data[x] for x in data_slices]
。相反,我们将基于这些切片绘制一个矩形,这需要更多的工作。
下面的两个动画显示了“重叠的爪子”和“分组的爪子”示例数据。该方法似乎运行良好。(不管它的价值如何,它的运行情况都比我机器上下面的GIF图像要平稳得多,因此爪子检测算法相当快...)
这是一个完整的示例(现在有更详细的说明)。其中绝大多数是读取输入内容并制作动画。实际的爪子检测只有5行代码。

更新:就确定什么时间与传感器接触的爪子而言,最简单的解决方案是仅进行相同的分析,但立即使用所有数据。(即,将输入堆叠到3D数组中,然后使用它,而不是单独的时间范围。)由于SciPy的ndimage函数旨在用于n维数组,因此我们不必修改原始的爪查找函数完全没有
