Hello MITK team,
Discovered your software today. Installed it (Win 7) and imported a sequence of 2D black and white video X-ray images of a spinal cord. My aim is to see if I can use your software to create a set of image annotations, i.e. image masks, as a training data set for machine learning. For this I need to manually segment video frames and save these (pixel / graphic files) together with the video frames data for supervised machine learning image recognition / segmentation. Since the difference between individual frames is often small (limited movement of the subject), I hope your software will allow automatic transfer of annotations from one frame of the sequence to the next. This would significantly reduce the manual labor. Can you confirm that this is possible? I have some challenges getting started. I have viewed the tutorials and video, but that only gives a brief indication of what the software can do. Is there a more starter-friendly, step-by-step guide / tutorial / youtube video that a novice like can follow along? I have searched, but haven't found any. Without a guide, I have tried some of the annotation tools. I can create a contour with the lasso-tool, but as soon as I let the mouse button go, the (green) contour disappears and nothing is left. This is different from what I saw on the example video. I would expect a mask / fill to remain? Same happens with the other tools. Is this because I loaded a B&W (jpeg) image? Is it because it is a 2D and not 3D image / model? The image sequence is named like 00000001.jpg to 00009999.jpg, they are shown in proper sequence in the left panel, starting with the highest number at the top and the lowest at the bottom, but for some reason the program selects image nr. 25 (00000025.jpg) as the first image in the right panel to work on. Why does it not start with the lowest number / file name? Why nr. 25? Is there a setting to change this? One final note: the tutorial files are shown in a browser. It seems at the end of each, there is no exit button to take the reader back to the main page from where he / she started. The only way I could get out of the browser tutorial is by pushing the back button as many times as there are pages in the tutorial. Is that how it was intended, or did I miss something? I apologize for so many (trivial) questions, I hope you can help me out to get me started. Kind regards, Jan de Lange
