Getting a single bounding box in image

Question

0 个投票

I am currently trying to obtain the bounding boxes of a bw image. Sometimes I get a single 1-by-4 vector, sometimes too I get multiple 1-by-4 vectors. In the latter case how am I supposed to figure out the real bounding box of the image? My image is a single apple on a white background. First I convert the image to bw using im2bw, I use imcomplement to get a white apple on a black background, and then I use the regionprops function with parameter 'BoundingBox'. The reason I'm doing this is because I would like to create a training set of apples, using a structure having imageFileName as the field of image file names, and BoundingBoxes as the field of the images bounding boxes. However I obtain several bounding boxes for a single image. I think it would be more logical to get only one bounding box per bw image.

When using im2bw I use graythresh for automatic thresholding. Here is a code snippet

if true
  % code
im = imread('file_path');
im = im2bw(im, graythresh(im));
im = imcomplement(im);
im = imfill(im, 'holes');
bbox = regionprops(im, 'BoundingBox');
bbox % structure of 5 1-by-4 vectors
 end
