I have a binary image below:
and the four straight objects are trees which i want to keep and the blob below is an unwanted object in the binary image. I'm using bwareafilt to extract only the objects i want, which in this case would be the four trees. However, by using:
regionprops(binimg, 'Area')
I get:
and the unfortunate thing is that the area of fourth tree (3557), is lesser than the area of the unwanted blob below. Hence if i use:
newbw = bwareafilt(binimg, [3900 5000])
the fourth tree will be filtered out leaving only:
If the area of the unwanted object is larger than the object i want to keep in the binary image, how do i handle this?
