How to download the annotations with a unique integer for each individual nucleus

[sanomamoudou]

Hello,
Thank you for this amazing tool.
I want to have an instance map for my training annotation, eg: a unique integer for each individual nucleus.
How can I do this ?? or the tool don't this option ??

Thanks in advance

sorry, i'm not sure i totally understand your question, but if you look here: https://github.com/choosehappy/PatchSorter/wiki/Frequently-Asked-Questions i think you'll see that what you're referring to is called an "indexed mask", and that patchsorter does support these? have you tried using this functionality?

Hi @choosehappy.
Thank you for your feedback.
Yes, exactly I am talking about "indexed mask".
I thought it was possible to annotate and download our masks in this format with QuickAnnotator.
But I haven't tried yet PatchSorter, I'll test this functionality on PatchSorter.
Thank you!

Ah, sorry, i understand your question better now Currently, QuickAnnotator doesn't provide direct support for this since i just realized we don't have a way of differentiating two objects that are touching each other in the UI. as a result, the outputs are binary masks, as i'm sure you've noticed if you want to convert those to indexed images, and if the objects are separated, you can produce an index image easily with 1 line of python code: https://scikit-image.org/docs/stable/api/skimage.measure.html#skimage.measure.label
