Image Segmentation (photutils.aperture)

This subpackage contains tools for detecting sources using image segmentation and measuring their centroids, photometry, and morphological properties.

Functions

deblend_sources(data, segment_img, npixels, *)	Deblend overlapping sources labeled in a segmentation image.
detect_sources(data, threshold, npixels, *)	Detect sources above a specified threshold value in an image.
detect_threshold(data, nsigma, *[, ...])	Calculate a pixel-wise threshold image that can be used to detect sources.
make_2dgaussian_kernel(fwhm, size[, mode, ...])	Make a normalized 2D circular Gaussian kernel.

Classes

Segment(segment_data, label, slices, bbox, ...)	Class for a single labeled region (segment) within a segmentation image.
SegmentationImage(data)	Class for a segmentation image.
SourceCatalog(data, segment_img, *[, ...])	Class to create a catalog of photometry and morphological properties for sources defined by a segmentation image.
SourceFinder(npixels, *[, connectivity, ...])	Class to detect sources, including deblending, in an image using segmentation.
