Figure 11:

G-band image at $\langle \mu \rangle = 0.97$ (the same as in Fig. 1), with the overlaid contours of the features classified using the reject option. The faculae are contoured in green, the BPs in yellow and the rejected features in red. The contours correspond to the border of the features as defined by the segmentation map (corresponding to the lowest MLT level $C_{\rm G} = 0$ ). Tickmarks are in arcseconds. The corresponding original image without contours is presented in Fig. 1.
