pouring — 2D segmentation op

Data kinds: imageregion

Call: fullseye.apply(img, "pouring", a=0.5, b=0.5) (the 2-D model is one image plus two scalar knobs a,b∈[0,1])

HALCON equivalent: pouring (the HALCON reference is a useful guide to its meaning and parameters)

pouring: 入力 → 出力

*The figure is the real output on a synthetic 128×128 input. Left: input, right: output (a non-image return value is shown as the value itself).*

Usage

Boundary extraction via watershed segmentation. Treats a gradient image (Sobel amplitude) as terrain, computes the watershed using dark regions (`x < 0.2+0.3a) as seeds (markers), and returns the boundaries as foreground using skimage.segmentation.find_boundaries`. b is unused.

HALCON の `pouring(水を注ぐように画素値の低い場所から領域を満たしていく古典的な pouring アルゴリズムで分割する演算)に相当する近似 —— アルゴリズムの詳細は異なるが、低輝度領域を起点に領域を広げるという発想は共通。watersheds/watersheds_threshold` と実装を共有する。
