SAGUI: SED-based Segmentation of Multi-band Galaxy Images -- Application to JADES in GOODS-South

We present sagui, a modular framework for the analysis of multiband imaging data in spatially resolved galaxies, with synergies to integral-field spectroscopy (IFS). Building on the spectro-spatial paradigm introduced by capivara for IFS data, sagui extends this approach to imaging data sets, enabling a coherent, pixel-level treatment of spatial and spectral information across multiple bands. The method follows a two-stage strategy: a starlet-based decomposition is first used to identify and mask spatial structures across multiple scales while suppressing noise, and a spectral-similarity analysis then partitions the image into coherent pixel groups that preserve spectral consistency. In addition to compact and high-contrast structures, the framework incorporates a dedicated statistical treatment, based on a copula transform, to identify and recover faint, diffuse low-surface-brightness components. We demonstrate the method across a diverse range of galaxy morphologies, highlighting its ability to characterize complex spatial structures, including clumps, bars, interacting systems, and low-surface-brightness features. As a case study, we apply it to 11 morphologically diverse galaxies from the James Webb Space Telescope Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey in the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey South (GOODS-South) field. sagui is released under an MIT license and is available at GitHub.
