select_shape — 2D region op

• Data kinds: region → region

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

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

Usage

Removes connected components whose area is below a threshold (`16+a*200 pixels) -- i.e., removes small noise-like regions. HALCON's select_shape` (Choose regions with the aid of shape features.) is a general-purpose operator that can filter by any shape feature such as area, circularity, or convexity, but here it is fixed to a single area-based cutoff (an approximation).

• Sample-data catalog (download URLs / licences) — 2-D uses skimage.data (BSD/public domain) plus synthetic images; 3-D lists download URLs for real data sources (Stanford, PDS, …).

• Operator provenance and references — the sources of the research/methods this op family came from.

• The canonical algorithm (author, year) and its uses are named in the family usage guide above.
