IMAGE-PROCESSING

binary_fill_holes

Fill the holes in binary objects.

Example of usage

Detect, enhance or quantify structures in a synthetic quality-inspection grayscale image.

Usage / limitations

+Use when: Transform and analyse images.

−Limitations: Check input requirements, mathematical assumptions and version-specific behaviour before using.

Mathematical formula

See mathematical definition for binary_fill_holes; this example verifies numerical properties.

Code example (Python)

# DataLens.ai example — binary_fill_holes for visual quality inspection.
# Input image_data is provided by Copy input + code + test.
import numpy as np
from scipy import ndimage as ndi
# Construct a small grayscale inspection image with a bright object.
image = np.asarray(image_data['pixels'], dtype=float)
mask = image > 0
# Apply the selected image processing algorithm.
enclosed = np.ones((7, 7), dtype=bool); enclosed[3, 3] = False
result = ndi.binary_fill_holes(enclosed)
# Expected output: verify the defined numerical and shape properties.
assert result[3, 3] and result.all()
print("Expected output verified")
