8.118. Require Minimum Size Features

Group (Subgroup)

Processing (Cleanup)

Description

This Filter removes Features that have a total number of Cells below the minimum threshold defined by the user. Entering a number larger than the largest Feature generates an error (since all Features would be removed). Hence, a choice of threshold should be carefully be chosen if it is not known how many Cells are in the largest Features. After removing all the small Features, the remaining Features are isotropically coarsened to fill the gaps left by the small Features.

The Filter can be run in a mode where the minimum number of neighbors is applied to a single Ensemble. The user can select to apply the minimum to one specific Ensemble.

WARNING: Feature Data Will Become Invalid

By modifying the cell level data, any feature data that was previously computed will most likely be invalid at this point. Filters that compute feature level data should be rerun to ensure accurate final results from your pipeline.

WARNING: NeighborList Removal

If the Cell Feature AttributeMatrix contains any NeighborList data arrays, those arrays will be REMOVED because those lists are now invalid. Re-run the Find Neighbors filter to re-create the lists.
