ccount for computing the
        minima. If index is None, the minimum over all elements where `labels`
        is non-zero is returned.

    Returns
    -------
    minimum : float or list of floats
        List of minima of `input` over the regions determined by `labels` and
        whose index is in `index`. If `index` or `labels` are not specified, a
        float is returned: the minimal value of `input` if `labels` is None,
        and the minimal value of elements where `labels` is greater than zero
        if `index` is None.

    --------
    label, maximum, median, minimum_position, extrema, sum, mean, variance,
    standard_deviation

    Notes
    -----
    The function returns a Python list and not a NumPy array, use
    `np.array` to convert the list to an array.

    Examples
    --------
    >>> from scipy import ndimage
    >>> import numpy as np
    >>> a = np.array([[1, 2, 0, 0],
    ...               [5, 3, 0, 4],
    ...               [0, 0, 0, 7],
    ...               [9, 3, 0, 0]])
    >>> labels, labels_nb = ndimage.label(a)
    >>> labels
    array([[1, 1, 0, 0],
           [1, 1, 0, 2],
           [0, 0, 0, 2],
           [3, 3, 0, 0]])
    >>> ndimage.minimum(a, labels=labels, index=np.arange(1, labels_nb + 1))
    [1.0, 4.0, 3.0]
    >>> ndimage.minimum(a)
    0.0
    >>> ndimage.minimum(a, labels=labels)
    1.0
