Dear Adrián,

The code shows in detail how ImageJ calculates the Feret values.
But it may not be so easy to read.

In short, if I’m reading correctly, it finds a polygon approximating the convex hull of the particle, then generates diameters of the polygon at a series of angles, in 0.5 degree increments. The shortest of all these diameters is stored as the minFeret.

You can search the forum (forum.imagej.net<http://forum.imagej.net>) and the archives of this list for more discussion that is more detailed than the user manual, but less code-y than the source.

Hope this helps,
Theresa

Dear Theresa,

Thank you for the code library! Do you know if in addition i can find the
mathematical explanation?
Thanks in advance!

Dear Adrián,

The code for the calculation is in the ROI class:
https://imagej.nih.gov/ij/developer/source/ij/gui/Roi.java.html

This is the link to the browsable source code for ImageJ:
https://imagej.nih.gov/ij/developer/source/index.html

Hope this helps,
Theresa

Dear all,

I want to know where ca i find more information about some parameters that
i can measure in imageJ such as FeretX, FeretY, all the shape descriptors
information (AR, round, circularity...) I found a short description at the
user manual of imageJ but i want to know if there is some place where it is
high described and explained (for example, how does imageJ measure
FerretMin?) .

Thank you in advance
