Computation of the mean-distance histograms. a, d human tonsil sections marked with a Ki-67 antibody, and d Filagrin antibody (both the antibodies are marked with red stains). b, e segmented markers. c, f purple lines showing the manually signed borders of the basement membranes. The gray band shows the border neighborhood considered during the histogram computation; precisely, only markers in the gray band are used to compute the normalized mean-distance histograms plotted in (g). The histograms (computed over all the human tonsil dataset) clearly show that the Ki-67 antibody tend to be nearer to the border than the Filagrin one. In this case, the average intersection measure equals 0.60
