NAME

       mia-2dsegment-local-kmeans - Run a k-means segmentation of a 2D image.

SYNOPSIS

       mia-2dsegment-local-kmeans -i <in-file> [options]

DESCRIPTION

       mia-2dsegment-local-kmeans  This program runs the segmentation of a 2D image by applying a
       localized k-means approach that helps to overcome intensity inhomogeneities in the  image.
       The  approach  evaluates  a  global  k-means clustering, and then separates the image into
       overlapping regions where more k-means iterations  are  run  only  including  the  locally
       present  classes,  i.e.  the  classes  that  relatively  contain  more pixels than a given
       threshold.

OPTIONS

   File-IO

   Processing
                 --threads=-1
                     Maxiumum number of threads to use for processing,This number should be lower
                     or  equal  to  the  number  of  logical processor cores in the machine. (-1:
                     automatic estimation).
