the otsu filter is a filter that takes a image and from its histogram calculates the values at which the image should be thresholded to acomplish an optimal seperation of a foregtround and background object. I didn't hear about, but I used it through the ImageJ tool. It gave me optimal results. I'm working on a project for my clases, and the last thing I need to accomplish my goal is this filter. Is there anyone who implemented it.
