Overview
对于二值图像来说，每个像素点的值只有类似0/1的两种可能性，一般为0（黑）/255（白）。
若两个像素点位置相邻且取值相同，那么这两个像素点即处于同一个相互连通的区域内。
从视觉上看，彼此连通的电形成了一个区域，而该区域中所有连通点构成的集合，我们称之为连通区域。
在图像中，每个像素当以自身为中心时，周围一般存在8个邻接像素。
在判断两个像素是否属于同一连通区域时，根据邻接关系，通常存在两种判定方法：4连通或8连通。
4连通只考虑4个邻接像素，即上下左右，如下左图所示；
8连通则总共考虑8个邻接像素，额外还包括了对角线位置的点，如下右图所示。
值得注意的是，二值连通区域还具有简单而特殊的传递性：
若像素点A与B同值并邻接，我们称A与B连通，易得，
若A与B连通，B与C连通，则A与C连通。
一个连通区域可能包含很多个像素点，而若将同一个连通区域的所有像素点都用同一个数值/符号来进行标记，这个过程就称为连通区域标记。
Label
SciKit-Image是一种Python下的图像处理工具包，scikit-image — Image processing in Python：Official Site
在skimage包中，使用measure子模块下的label函数即可实现连通区域标记。
参数input表示需要处理的二值图像，connectivity表示判定连通的模式（1代表4连通，2代表8连通），输出labels为一个从0开始的标记数组。
skimage.measure.label(input, neighbors = None, background = None, return_num = False, connectivity = None)[source]**
Parameters:
@input : Image to label [ndarray of dtype int]
@neighbors : Deprecated, use @connectivity instead [{4, 8}, int, optional]
@background : Consider all pixels with this value as background pixels, and label them as 0. By default, 0-valued pixels are considered as background pixels. [int, optional]
@return_num : Whether to return the number of assigned labels [bool, optional]
@connectivity : Maximum number of orthogonal hops to consider a pixel/voxel as a neighbor. Accepted values are ranging from 1 to input.ndim. If None, a full connectivity of input.ndim is used. [int, optional]
Returns:
@labels : Labeled array, where all connected regions are assigned the same integer value. [ndarray of dtype int]
@num : Number of labels, which equals the maximum label index and is only returned if return_num is True. [int, optional]
Examples:
>>> import numpy as np
>>> x = np.eye(3).astype(int)
>>> print(x)
[[1 0 0]
[0 1 0]
[0 0 1]]
>>> print(label(x, connectivity = 1))
[[1 0 0]
[0 2 0]
[0 0 3]]
>>> print(label(x, connectivity = 2))
[[1 0 0]
[0 1 0]
[0 0 1]]
>>> print(label(x, background = -1))
[[1 2 2]
[2 1 2]
[2 2 1]]
>>> x = np.array([[1, 0, 0],
... [1, 1, 5],
... [0, 0, 0]])
>>> print(label(x))
[[1 0 0]
[1 1 2]
[0 0 0]]
Properties
此外，使用measure子模块中的regionprops()函数可以很方便地对每一个连通区域进行属性获取和操作，比如计算面积、外接矩形、凸包面积等等。
计算结果返回为所有连通区域的属性列表，列表长度为连通区域个数（第i个连通区域的attribute属性可以通过properties[i].attribute获取）。
skimage.measure.regionprops(label_image, intensity_image = None, cache = True)[source]
Parameters:
@label_image : Labeled input image. Labels with value 0 are ignored. [(N, M) ndarray]
@intensity_image : Intensity (i.e., input) image with same size as labeled image. Default is None. [(N, M) ndarray, optional]
@cache : Determine whether to cache calculated properties. The computation is much faster for cached properties, whereas the memory consumption increases. [bool, optional]
