visual-clutter 1.0.7

Description:

visualclutter 1.0.7

visual-clutter


Python Implementation of two measures of visual clutter (Feature Congestion and Subband Entropy), Matlab Version, + library dependency.
Pre-requisites


This utility is written in Python 3. You will need a Python 3 interpreter installed or you will have to package this into a self contained executable.


This utility uses Pyrtools. So you will need to run it on Linux or on OSX. Windows is NOT supported because of issues with the C compiler (gcc isn't necessarily installed).


How to Install visual_clutter
pip install visual-clutter

# install from git
pip install git+https://github.com/kargaranamir/visual-clutter

How to use (Examples)
from visual_clutter import Vlc

# make visual clutter object and load test map and set parameters
clt = Vlc('./tests/test.jpg', numlevels=3, contrast_filt_sigma=1, contrast_pool_sigma=3, color_pool_sigma=3)

# get Feature Congestion clutter of a test map:
clutter_scalar_fc, clutter_map_fc = clt.getClutter_FC(p=1, pix=1)

# get Subband Entropy clutter of the test map:
clutter_scalar_se = clt.getClutter_SE(wlevels=3, wght_chrom=0.0625)

print(f'clutter_scalar_fc: {clutter_scalar_fc}')
print(f'clutter_scalar_se: {clutter_scalar_se}')

# just compute and display color clutter map(s)
color_clutter = clt.colorClutter(color_pix=1)

# just compute and display contrast clutter map(s)
contrast_clutter = clt.contrastClutter(contrast_pix=1)

# just compute and display orientation clutter map(s)
orientation_clutter = clt.orientationClutter(orient_pix=1)
