hold_peaks#

hold_peaks(im, axis=-1, ascending=True)[source]#

Replaces each voxel with the highest value along the given axis.

Parameters:

  • im (ndarray) – A greyscale image whose peaks are to be found.

  • axis (int) – The axis along which the operation is to be applied.

  • ascending (bool) – If True (default) the given axis is scanned from 0 to end. If False, it is scanned in reverse order from end to 0.

Returns:

result – A copy of im with each voxel is replaced with the highest value along the given axis.

Return type:

ndarray

Notes

“im” must be a greyscale image. In case a Boolean image is fed into this method, it will be converted to float values [0.0,1.0] before proceeding.
