Features

FARSIGHT contains a rich and constantly growing library of software routines to compute diverse measurements from images. Measurements are also commonly referred to as "features" in the image analysis community. Broadly speaking, there are two classes of features in FARSIGHT:

1. Intrinsic Features

2. Associative Features

Intrinsic Features for Blobs

These features can be calculated with two input images (Data Image and Label Image). They are most commonly used for blob-like regions, such as nuclei.
