ImageValuePositions

ImageValuePositions[image,val]

returns a list of pixel positions in image that exactly match the value val.

ImageValuePositions[image,val,d]

returns all pixel positions that have values within a distance d from val.

Details

  • ImageValuePositions finds and returns pixels of specific values in 2D and 3D images and is typically used for locating features or removing artifacts.
  • ImageValuePositions assumes the standard image coordinate system.
  • ImageValuePositions always returns coordinates representing the centers of the pixels. Position represents the center of the pixel at the bottom-left corner.
  • The pixel value val can be in one of the following forms:
  • sa scalar
    colora color
    {s1,s2,}a list of channel values
    "Max"pixels with maximum intensity
    "Min"pixels with minimum intensity
  • Use PixelValuePositions to get integer indices for the pixel positions. ImageValuePositions[image,val] is equivalent to PixelValuePositions[image,val]-0.5.
