Is there a question about Python in there somewhere?
It looks like you are asking about the algorithm or math?

Maybe if you gave us some idea of what your data looks
like and what you are trying to do with it?

Remember, this list is composed of Python programmers
not domain experts in your field. You need to show us
what you are trying to accomplish.

For example, what does "making a mask" mean? It's not
a Python thing... And what does the "maximum dimension
of each thresholded feature" mean? Again, it's not
Python speak.
