在 MATLAB Online 中打开

im = imread('pout.tif');
[counts ,x]=imhist(im);
counts(x > 200)

@proecsm: Thanks for your suggestion!

Sorry, my question is not clear. I mean that I want to guess the number of objects in image. Here is my thought:

I have a histogram of image: [counts x] = imhist(image);
I want to find its all local maxima from counts corresponding with indices from x into array.

-> is there any function for it?

Thanks.

Many thanks for your comment.

Yes, I saw blobsdemo. But I just want to guess how many object based on histogram. I'm learning about image segmentation. I use the eigenvectors to partion image, and then use k-means to group similar partions. So, I need to know how many the general objects. Then I choose histogram to guess that. But I don't know how to find local maxima of histogram.

You can't estimate the number of foreground objects in your image from the image's histogram unless you know the areas of the objects in your image. For example if your foreground (objects) are brighter than thresholdValue and the size of the objects is objectArea, then you can estimate the number of objects like this:

numberOfObjects = round(sum(pixelCounts(thresholdValue:end)) / objectArea);
