v0.24.0rc1

scikit-image 0.24.0rc1

We're happy to announce the release of scikit-image 0.24.0rc1!

Highlights

• Add new class skimage.transform.ThinPlateSplineTransform, which can estimate and model non-linear transforms with thin-plate splines and allows image warping with skimage.transform.warp (#7040).

New Features

• Add new class skimage.transform.ThinPlateSplineTransform, which can estimate and model non-linear transforms with thin-plate splines and allows image warping with skimage.transform.warp (#7040).
• Add skimage.morphology.remove_objects_by_distance, which removes labeled objects, ordered by size (default), until the remaining objects are a given distance apart (#4165).

Performance

• In skimage.feature.corner_fast, test four directions earlier, which should more than half the computation time for most cases (#7394).

Documentation

• Remove obsolete instruction about documenting changes (#7321).
• Clarify description of data_range parameter in skimage.metrics.structural_similarity (#7345).
• Update release process notes (#7402).
• Fix typo in docstring of skimage.measure.regionprops (#7405).
• Fix typos in skimage.measure.find_contours (#7411).
• Add algorithmic complexity description + suggested alternatives to skimage.restoration.rolling_ball docstring (#7424).
• Remove ineffective PR contribution clause (#7429).
• Clarify objection period for lazy consensus in SKIP 1 (#7020).
• Add a new gallery example "Use thin-plate splines for image warping" (#7040).
• Add a new gallery example on "Removing objects" based on their size or distance (#4165).

Infrastructure

• Escape user-controlled variables in GA workflow (#7415).
• Add generation of GitHub artifact attestations to built sdist and wheels before upload to PyPI (#7427).
• For publishing actions use the full length commit SHA (#7433).

• Fix NumPy2 dtype promotion issues in pywt dependent code (#7414).

• Add support back for Python 3.9 to enhance compatibility with Numpy 2 (#7412).
• Disable ruff/pyupgrade rule UP038 (#7430).

v0.23.1

scikit-image 0.23.1

We're happy to announce the release of scikit-image 0.23.1!

Note

Due to an issue with the CI system scikit-image 0.23.0 was never released.
This release is identical to what 0.23.0 would have been other than the CI fix and the version number.

Highlights

• Ensure skimage.morphology.closing and skimage.morphology.opening are extensive and anti-extensive, respectively, if the footprint is not mirror symmetric (#6695).
• Add parameter mode to binary_erosion, binary_dilation, binary_opening and binary_closing in skimage.morphology. These new parameters determine how array borders are handled (#6695).
• Add parameters mode and cval to erosion, dilation, opening, closing, white_tophat, and black_tophat in skimage.morphology. These new parameters determine how array borders are handled (#6695).
• Speedup skimage.util.map_array by parallelization with Cython's prange (#7266).

New Features

• Add new intensity_std property to skimage.measure.regionprops which computes the standard deviation of the intensity in a region (#6712).
• Add parameter mode to binary_erosion, binary_dilation, binary_opening and binary_closing in skimage.morphology. These new parameters determine how array borders are handled (#6695).
• Add functions mirror_footprint and pad_footprint to skimage.morphology (#6695).
• Add parameters mode and cval to erosion, dilation, opening, closing, white_tophat, and black_tophat in skimage.morphology. These new parameters determine how array borders are handled (#6695).
• Add new parameter spacing to segmentation.expand_labels to support anisotropic images (#7080).

API Changes

• Drop support for Python 3.9 (#7217).
• Parameters shift_x and shift_y in skimage.morphology.erosion and skimage.morphology.dilation are deprecated. Use pad_footprint or modify the footprint manually instead (#6695).
• Remove unexpected value scaling in skimage.morphology.skeletonize_3d for non-binary input images. skeletonize_3d now always returns a binary array like similar functions (#7095).
• Deprecate function skimage.feature.plot_matches in favor of skimage.feature.plot_matched_features (#7255).
• Deprecate skimage.morphology.skeletonize_3d in favor of just skimage.morphology.skeletonize (#7094).
• Deprecate parameter output in skimage.filters.gaussian; use out instead (#7225).
• Change the default value of the parameters shift_x, shift_y and shift_z from False to 0 in the skimage.filters.rank functions. This has not impact on the results. Warn in case boolean shifts are provided from now on (#7320).

Performance

• Add lazy loading to skimage.metrics module (#7211).
• Speedup skimage.util.map_array by parallelization with Cython's prange (#7266).

Bug Fixes

• Add exception to avoid surprising result when image is too small for the given parameters in skimage.feature.hog (#7153).
• Ensure skimage.morphology.closing and skimage.morphology.opening are extensive and anti-extensive, respectively, if the footprint is not mirror symmetric (#6695).
• Avoid a TypeError in skimage.registration.phase_cross_correlation when the real-time shift cannot be determined (disambiguate=True). Display a warning instead (#7259).
• Fix logic in skimage.graph.pixel_graph which raised a TypeError when the parameter edge_function was provided without a mask (#7310).
• Ensure cache stays empty when cache=False is passed to skimage.measure.regionprops (#7333).

Documentation

• Update instructions for updating dev environment (#7160).
• Make titles in RAG gallery examples more explicit (#7202).
• Add docstring to skimage.graph module (#7192).
• Use consistent notation for array dimensions in the docstrings (#3031).

• Stop HTML documentation from intercepting left and right-arrow keys to improve keyboard accessibility (#7226).
• Fix reference formatting for nitpicky sphinx (#7228).
• Document how to deal with other array-likes such as xarray.DataArray and pandas.DataFrame in the crash course on NumPy for images (#7159).
• Fix broken function calls and syntax issues in user guide (#7234).
• Use correct default mode in docstring of skimage.transform.swirl (#7241).
