Early Stage Embryo

Background: Cell detection and counting is of essential importance in evaluating the quality of early-stage embryo. Full automation of this process remains a challenging task due to different cell size, shape, the presence of incomplete cell boundaries, partially or fully overlapping cells. Moreover, the algorithm to be developed should process a large number of image data of different quality in a reasonable amount of time. Methods: Multi-focus image fusion approach based on deep learning U-Net architecture is proposed in the paper, which allows reducing the amount of data up to 7 times without losing spectral information required for embryo enhancement in the microscopic image. Results: The experiment includes the visual and quantitative analysis by estimating the image similarity metrics and processing times, which is compared to the results achieved by two wellknown techniques—Inverse Laplacian Pyramid Transform and Enhanced Correlation Coefficient Maximization. Conclusion: Comparatively, the image fusion time is substantially improved for different image resolutions, whilst ensuring the high quality of the fused image.

AbstractImage fusion is the method of combining relevant information from two or more images into a single image resulting in an image that is more informative than the initial inputs. Methods for fusion include discrete wavelet transform, Laplacian pyramid based transform, curvelet based transform etc. These methods demonstrate the best performance in spatial and spectral quality of the fused image compared to other spatial methods of fusion. In particular, wavelet transform has good time-frequency characteristics. However, this characteristic cannot be extended easily to two or more dimensions with separable wavelet experiencing limited directivity when spanning a one-dimensional wavelet. This paper introduces the second generation curvelet transform and uses it to fuse images together. This method is compared against the others previously described to show that useful information can be extracted from source and fused images resulting in the production of fused images which offer clear, detailed information.

<p>Hyperspectral remote sensors collect image data for a large number of narrow, adjacent spectral bands. Every pixel in hyperspectral image involves a continuous spectrum that is used to classify the objects with great detail and precision. This paper presents hyperspectral image classification mechanism using genetic algorithm with empirical mode decomposition and image fusion used in preprocessing stage. 2-D Empirical mode decomposition method is used to remove any noisy components in each band of the hyperspectral data. After filtering, image fusion is performed on the hyperspectral bands to selectively merge the maximum possible features from the source images to form a single image. This fused image is classified using genetic algorithm. Different indices, such as K-means (KMI), Davies-Bouldin Index (DBI), and Xie-Beni Index (XBI) are used as objective functions. This method increases classification accuracy of hyperspectral image.</p>
