distance_transform_lin#

distance_transform_lin(im, axis=0, mode='both')[source]#

Replaces each void voxel with the linear distance to the nearest solid voxel along the specified axis.

Parameters:

  • im (ndarray) – The image of the porous material with True values indicating the void phase (or phase of interest).

  • axis (int) – The direction along which the distance should be measured, the default is 0 (i.e. along the x-direction).

  • mode (str) –

    Controls how the distance is measured. Options are:

    ’forward’

    Distances are measured in the increasing direction along the specified axis

    ’reverse’

    Distances are measured in the reverse direction. ‘backward’ is also accepted.

    ’both’

    Distances are calculated in both directions (by recursively calling itself), then reporting the minimum value of the two results.

Returns:

image – A copy of im with each foreground voxel containing the distance to the nearest background along the specified axis.

Return type:

ndarray
