Introduction to
Applied Image analysis
Information in any image stored in pixels or points
in form of matrix, which contains light intensity (I) in a
position's, coordinates (X, Y). The light intensity contains the
three main colors; blue, red and black. The values of light
intensity ranged between 0=black and 255=white. The degrees
between 0 and 255 represents the gray levels, which identify the
objects from image background. The different between the object
and background is called threshold value. The mathematicians have
made attempts to enhance the objects by using special filters to
filter the noises in image. These attempts can easy understand by
using the program
Morphology of image analysis
By studying the image's contents, it is possible to
extract useful information, which explain the biological
processes in animal science. Programming an image analysis
application, using computer language C++, visual basic or JAVA
for web-sites users can do the study.
For the users, who has no experience in programming,
it is possible to use friendly user packages for image analysis,
which needs only experience in computer windows systems
application.
