AutoMaskingArgs.NumberOfObjects

AutoMaskingArgs.NumberOfObjects property

Gets or sets the number of objects to separate initial image to (optional), default value is 2 (object and background).

public int NumberOfObjects { get; set; }

Property Value

The number of objects.

Examples

This example shows how to decompose a raster image into multiple images using image masking and the K-means segmentation algorithm. Image masking is an image processing technique that is used to split the background from the foreground image objects.

[C#]

string dir = "c:\\temp\\";

using (Aspose.Imaging.RasterImage image = (Aspose.Imaging.RasterImage)Aspose.Imaging.Image.Load(dir + "Blue hills.png"))
{
    Aspose.Imaging.Masking.Options.AutoMaskingArgs args = new Aspose.Imaging.Masking.Options.AutoMaskingArgs();

    // Set the number of clusters (separated objects). The default value is 2, the foreground object and the background.
    args.NumberOfObjects = 3;

    // Set the maximum number of iterations.
    args.MaxIterationNumber = 50;

    // Set the precision of segmentation method (optional)
    args.Precision = 1;
        
    // Each cluster (segment) will be stored to a separate PNG file.
    Aspose.Imaging.ImageOptions.PngOptions exportOptions = new Aspose.Imaging.ImageOptions.PngOptions();
    exportOptions.ColorType = Aspose.Imaging.FileFormats.Png.PngColorType.TruecolorWithAlpha;
    exportOptions.Source = new Aspose.Imaging.Sources.StreamSource(new System.IO.MemoryStream());

    Aspose.Imaging.Masking.Options.MaskingOptions maskingOptions = new Aspose.Imaging.Masking.Options.MaskingOptions();

    // Use K-means clustering.
    // K-means clustering allows to split image into several independent clusters (segments).
    maskingOptions.Method = Masking.Options.SegmentationMethod.KMeans;
    maskingOptions.Decompose = true;
    maskingOptions.Args = args;
        
    // The backgroung color will be orange.
    maskingOptions.BackgroundReplacementColor = Aspose.Imaging.Color.Orange;
    maskingOptions.ExportOptions = exportOptions;

    // Create an instance of the ImageMasking class.
    Aspose.Imaging.Masking.ImageMasking masking = new Aspose.Imaging.Masking.ImageMasking(image);

    // Divide the source image into several clusters (segments).
    using (Aspose.Imaging.Masking.Result.MaskingResult maskingResult = masking.Decompose(maskingOptions))
    {
        // Obtain images from masking result and save them to PNG.
        for (int i = 0; i < maskingResult.Length; i++)
        {
            string outputFileName = string.Format("Blue hills.Segment{0}.png", maskingResult[i].ObjectNumber);
            using (Aspose.Imaging.Image resultImage = maskingResult[i].GetImage())
            {
                resultImage.Save(dir + outputFileName);
            }
        }
    }
}
