SegmentTool launches a UI-driven tool for trying different approaches to masking your image.
IMPORTANT: This version is being maintained only to support usage in R14a and earlier. For R14b+, please use this version instead:
http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/48859-segment-images-interactively--and-generate-matlab-code

Try different edge detection algorithms, modifying all possible parameters; implement global or local thresholds; detect regional or extended minima or maxima; find lines or circles. See the results of different approaches and inputs immediately.

Import new images from file or workspace; export segmentation masks; generate reproduction code; visualize segmentation on your original image; change colorspace representaions; lots more!

CURRENT TABS:
edge; threshold; Hough line/circle; Regional/Extended Min/Max, Color-Based.

COMING SOON:
A tab to manage manual segmentation approaches!

Suggestion: Use SegmentTool in conjunction with MorphTool to increase your image processing productivity!
