Hi,
I'm analysing network images using analyzeskeleton, and keep finding that
the number of reported junctions tends to be more than those that you can
'see'.
Ignacio tells me this is because of the 'slab' regions created when two
thick lines crossover- the plugin treats this as a separating region.

I've also tried dilating the binary image to see if things get better, but
have had no such luck.

eg. the first link has an image with 7 junctions that I 'see' and count
(https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B-rB2njADvZQVGItb1pzb0pEN0k&authuser=0)

     the second link has the skeletonised output which gives 8 junctions in
the table
(https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B-rB2njADvZQRVRWcm1qb3g5QlU&authuser=0) -
this is because of the

Any ideas on overcoming this please ?

thanks,

Thejasvi
