Release v0.1.0

• switched to kasperl library for base API and generic pipeline plugins
• added thinning/trace-skeleton filters for skeletonizing binary images, based on Lingdong Huang's code at https://github.com/LingDong-/skeleton-tracing/blob/master/py/trace_skeleton.py
• the find-contours filter now has optional min/max size restrictions for the objects
• added find-contours-cv2 filter which adds contours as polygon object detections using OpenCV
• added fast-line-detection/hough-lines-prob filters for detecting lines in images and adding them as polygon object detection annotations
• added simple-blob-detector filter which adds detected blobs as bounding box object detections using OpenCV
• added aruco-detector filter which adds the detected markers to the meta-data
• added idc-generate-aruco tool
• the meta-sub-images filter can load the base filter now from a pipeline file as well
• the augment_image utility method now converts numpy types back to floats for object detection bboxes and polygons

Release v0.0.10

• switched from imgaug3 to imaug for numpy 2 support
• added roi-images filter for extracting sub-images based on object-detection bounding boxes
• the find-contours filter now works on any type of image data
• the transfer_region method (from _sub_image_utils) now initializes the labels of the
  full image segmentation annotations with the labels of the sub-image(s) to ensure correct output

Release v0.0.9

• fixed idc.imgaug.filter.transfer_region method: image segmentation layers now use values (0,255)
• using underscores now instead of dashes in dependencies (setup.py)
• renamed idc.imgaug.filter._sub_images_utils.process_image to extract_regions
• added crop-to-label filter that crops the image to the bbox of the annotation with the specified label
• the sub-images and meta-sub-images filter now have options to generate a regions via predefined number of rows/cols or row height/col width on the fly, useful when dealing with images of differing dimensions (and the regions parameter is now optional)

Release v0.0.8

• added support for placeholers: idc-combine-sub-images

Release v0.0.7

• idc-generate-regions tool can take margins and overlaps (right/bottom) into account for its region calculations now
• idc-combine-sub-images tool now has more details in the exceptions when extraction of groups fail and prunes the annotation after the merge as well
• meta-sub-images now outputs a logging message if there are no annotations after transferring regions/pruning annotations
• method transfer_region now adds the sub-images rather than replacing the tile in the overall layer, to allow for overlaps (for reducing edge effects)

Release v0.0.6

• requiring image_dataset_converter>=0.0.5 now

Release v0.0.5

• switched to underscores in project name
• switched to new methods from idc.api: empty_image(...) and array_to_image(...)

Release v0.0.4

• switched from unmaintained imgaug to imgaug3 library (https://github.com/nsetzer/imgaug)

Release v0.0.3

• added find-contours filter for turning blobs in image segmentation annotations into object detection polygons.

Release v0.0.2

• added change-grayscale filter for change pixel values of grayscale images by a factor of fixed value
• added clip-grayscale filter for replacing pixel values that go below or above thresholds
• added enhance filter for enhancing brightness, contrast, color, sharpness
