Dear Adrian,
As mentioned before Weka Segmentation performs pixel classification, so the
best result you can hope to achieve is to segment islets from the exocrine
tissue, but not to classify the islets. Ilastik ( the interactive learning
and segmentation toolkit; http://ilastik.org/ ) is a tool for image
classification and segmentation similar to the weka segmentation, but it
has multiple workflows. I think in your case might be worth to try the
object classification workflow: first you train the classifier to recognize
islets from exocrine tissue using pixel classification, in a second pass
the workflow is trained to classify the detected objects based on multiple
selectable features.

Best of luck,
Stoyan
