Today's puzzle is a Fillomino (Odd/Even). I got the idea while looking through some of the older contests on LMI: this one is from Parallel Universe III, by Prasanna https://logicmastersindia.com/lmitests/?test=M202008P, featuring a bunch of classic genres with slightly unusual variants. I would recommend checking out the puzzles!

Rules: Divide the grid into regions of orthogonally connected cells. Two regions of the same size may not share an edge. Clued cells must belong to a region containing the indicated number of cells. (A region may contain any number of clues, including none at all.)

Variant: A cell with a grey square must be part of an even size region. A cell with a grey circle must be part of an odd size region.
