چکیده

This paper presents a procedure for automating digital image analysis of cloud particle images recorded on video tape using the Cloudscope. 1 The Cloudscope is mounted on the wing of an aircraft and records cloud crystals as they impact the external lens and sublimate. The procedure presented breaks the analysis into several parts: frequency domain ltering, frame to frame movement correction, and nally new particle detection, counting, and sizing. These procedures were automated using LabVIEW and Concept V.i.

Novel Automated Method for Minirhizotron Image Analysis: Root Detection using Curvelet Transform

In this article a new method is introduced for distinguishing roots and background based on their digital curvelet transform in minirhizotron images. In the proposed method, the nonlinear mapping is applied on sub-band curvelet components followed by boundary detection using energy optimization concept. The curvelet transform has the excellent capability in detecting roots with different orient...
