Details:
In Segment, after true clumps are found, they are "grown" simply by sorted
pixels (as you see in Figure 10
<http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/0067-0049/220/1/1/meta#apjs512983f10>
of the NoiseChisel paper).
This is only a very crude first approximation to identifying "objects" over
the detection and has many problems. For example, an "object" associated with
a small peak can easily cover a very large area of a large galaxy's diffuse
underlying flux for example.
A better way to grow the true peaks/clumps over NoiseChisel's detected
(non-background) pixels may be to use "Max-tree"s like what is used in
MTObjects
<https://www.degruyter.com/view/j/mathm.2016.1.issue-1/mathm-2016-0006/mathm-2016-0006.xml>.
>From the example images in that paper (for example Figures 7, 8, 12 and 13),
you see that because of this higher-level structure, the smaller peaks over a
large extended region are much more accurately separated from the diffuse flux
of the background and they don't block it (like they do in segment currently,
which is not good).
A simple visual inspection thus suggests that this is probably a much better
way to grow the true clumps which is worth testing (and hopefully
implementing) in Segment.
I will try to do this after I find some free time (my current project
finishes), but if anyone is interested until then, you can start it already,
and I would be happy to help ;-)...
