Path Tool Image Occlusion

The tool analyzes occlusion along a user-defined path in an image to support robust annotation and model evaluation. It accepts an image, a path defined by coordinates, and occlusion parameters, producing masks and metrics for downstream use. Conceptually, it treats the path as a polyline and places occlusion shapes at sampled points, then unions them to form a complete occlusion region. This supports dataset auditing, augmentation planning, and sensitivity analyses. The system emphasizes geometric validity, boundary handling, and clear export options for reproducible workflows. Beneficiaries include data engineers, ML researchers, and dataset curators seeking deterministic occlusion behavior and reliable metrics. Unique value lies in structured outputs and the ability to compare occlusion strategies across thresholds with exportable artifacts.
