Find radii of concentric circles in image

I have an image of concentric circles, I would like to find the radii of the circles (only the innermost few are important).

I've had a go using what I could find in previous posts, but am a bit confused about which method I should be using - if I need MorphologicalComponents, or whether to use SelectComponents "count" or "equivalentradius", or colornegate etc. Sometimes the circles are broken (especially when I binarize), so I need to look for incomplete circles too..

So far I have:

i = Import["http://i.imgur.com/oTTM9MG.jpg"];
b = Binarize[i, {0.3, 1}];
m = MorphologicalComponents[b];
c = SelectComponents[m, {"Count", "Holes"}, 
   1000 < #1 < 20000 && #2 > 0 &] // Colorize

ComponentMeasurements[c, {"Centroid", "EquivalentDiskRadius"}]

or, using :

i = Import["http://i.imgur.com/oTTM9MG.jpg"];
disk = ColorNegate[Binarize[i, {0.3, 1}]];
rings = ComponentMeasurements[
   disk, {"Centroid", "EquivalentDiskRadius"}, 
   450 <= #1[[1]] <= 550 && 325 <= #1[[2]] <= 375 && 
     10 <= #2 <= 500 &];
Show[{disk, 

  Graphics[{{Red, Circle[rings[[1, 2]][[1]], rings[[1, 2]][[2]]]}}]}]

Am I making it harder than it is? Could someone bump in the right direction?

both this, How to find circular objects in an image? and this, Finding the centroid of a disk in an image were helpful (but I need to expand it to multiple circles and fit partial circles).

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Answer

What you could do is apply an edge filter and find the threshold which binarizes your image best:

i = Import["http://i.imgur.com/oTTM9MG.jpg"];
edges = LaplacianGaussianFilter[ColorNegate[i], 2];

Manipulate[Binarize[edges, t], {t, 0, .1}]

After that you could select all objects with a certain radius or you throw out all small objects with a specific "Count". You have to decide then what you prefer as radius. I thought maybe the "MeanCentroidDistance" gives a quite stable measure

circles = 
  SelectComponents[
   MorphologicalComponents[LaplacianGaussianFilter[ColorNegate@i, 2], 0.0056`],
   "Count", # > 300 &];
Colorize[circles]
ComponentMeasurements[circles, "MeanCentroidDistance"]
(*

{26 -> 271.952, 33 -> 262.778, 129 -> 221.202, 157 -> 209.482, 
 329 -> 154.293, 398 -> 136.493}

plotting - Plot 4D data with color as 4th dimension

I have a list of 4D data (x position, y position, amplitude, wavelength). I want to plot x, y, and amplitude on a 3D plot and have the color of the points correspond to the wavelength. I have seen many examples using functions to define color but my wavelength cannot be expressed by an analytic function. Is there a simple way to do this? Answer Here a another possible way to visualize 4D data: data = Flatten[Table[{x, y, x^2 + y^2, Sin[x - y]}, {x, -Pi, Pi,Pi/10}, {y,-Pi,Pi, Pi/10}], 1]; You can use the function Point along with VertexColors . Now the points are places using the first three elements and the color is determined by the fourth. In this case I used Hue, but you can use whatever you prefer. Graphics3D[ Point[data[[All, 1 ;; 3]], VertexColors -> Hue /@ data[[All, 4]]], Axes -> True, BoxRatios -> {1, 1, 1/GoldenRatio}]

plotting - Filling between two spheres in SphericalPlot3D

Manipulate[ SphericalPlot3D[{1, 2 - n}, {θ, 0, Pi}, {ϕ, 0, 1.5 Pi}, Mesh -> None, PlotPoints -> 15, PlotRange -> {-2.2, 2.2}], {n, 0, 1}] I cant' seem to be able to make a filling between two spheres. I've already tried the obvious Filling -> {1 -> {2}} but Mathematica doesn't seem to like that option. Is there any easy way around this or ... Answer There is no built-in filling in SphericalPlot3D . One option is to use ParametricPlot3D to draw the surfaces between the two shells: Manipulate[ Show[SphericalPlot3D[{1, 2 - n}, {θ, 0, Pi}, {ϕ, 0, 1.5 Pi}, PlotPoints -> 15, PlotRange -> {-2.2, 2.2}], ParametricPlot3D[{ r {Sin[t] Cos[1.5 Pi], Sin[t] Sin[1.5 Pi], Cos[t]}, r {Sin[t] Cos[0 Pi], Sin[t] Sin[0 Pi], Cos[t]}}, {r, 1, 2 - n}, {t, 0, Pi}, PlotStyle -> Yellow, Mesh -> {2, 15}]], {n, 0, 1}]

plotting - Mathematica: 3D plot based on combined 2D graphs

I have several sigmoidal fits to 3 different datasets, with mean fit predictions plus the 95% confidence limits (not symmetrical around the mean) and the actual data. I would now like to show these different 2D plots projected in 3D as in but then using proper perspective. In the link here they give some solutions to combine the plots using isometric perspective, but I would like to use proper 3 point perspective. Any thoughts? Also any way to show the mean points per time point for each series plus or minus the standard error on the mean would be cool too, either using points+vertical bars, or using spheres plus tubes. Below are some test data and the fit function I am using. Note that I am working on a logit(proportion) scale and that the final vertical scale is Log10(percentage). (* some test data *) data = Table[Null, {i, 4}]; data[[1]] = {{1, -5.8}, {2, -5.4}, {3, -0.8}, {4, -0.2}, {5, 4.6}, {1, -6.4}, {2, -5.6}, {3, -0.7}, {4, 0.04}, {5, 1.0}, {1, -6.8}, {2, -4.7}, {3, -1....
