Dear 3dslicer community. I try to write script which would calculate the angle between two segments. Here is the image I have [image] I obtained the segments using simple threshold Then I would need to draw (automatically by python script as it is a part of an extension) lines through the segme…

Greetings, Get two points (e.g. along axis of symmetry) from each segment. Two points gives you a vector for each segment. Calculate cross or dot product of that vectors, that gives you either sine or cosine value of the angle. The problem is how to calculate two points along axis of symmetry, or …

@AurelienCD Hello! I would use the script repository: https://www.slicer.org/wiki/Documentation/Nightly/ScriptRepository#Measure_angle_between_two_markup_lines

@AurelienCD I would consider using Principal Component Analysis, specifically the sklearn implementation . Form an n-by-2 matrix of points in image space, either taking the positions of all points in one segment, or all points on the boundary of a segment (experiment to find which works better for…

Thank you James for your correction of my code on github it help a lot. I am a beginner and comments are still necessary :slight_smile:

Thank you Andras, I will use that new module. thank you everyone for your help. all the best, Aurélien

Segment Statistics module solves this very nicely: it can compute oriented bounding box and principal axes directions for each segment, directly from the segmentation.
