Branching points detection in processed image












3












$begingroup$


I want to get the branching coordinates from a computer-generated image like this one:



Generated tree



After SkeletonTransform and Pruning, I get:



Skeletonized



I would like to develop an algorithm that automatically detect and give coordinates of branching points (I could do it manually but really time consuming).



Thanks!



Edit: I already tried MorphologicalBranchPoints with poor results...

    @ Szabolcs It was more about a careful selection of thinning and skeletonize options. The result with MorphologicalBranchPoints wasn't good then.

Use MorphologicalBranchPoints.



im = Binarize@Import["https://i.stack.imgur.com/O0AMj.png"]

skel = Pruning[Thinning[im], 20];

HighlightImage[skel, MorphologicalBranchPoints[skel]]


enter image description here



Another possibility is to use



skel1 = Pruning[Thinning[im, Method -> "MedialAxis"], 10];


as a start then smoothen the result using



skel2 = Thinning@Dilation[skel1, 5]


so that MorphologicalBranchPoints would not give false results.



HighlightImage[skel2, MorphologicalBranchPoints[skel2]]
