HIGHLIGHTSA Matlab GUI, siriTool, was developed for structured-illumination reflectance imaging.siriTool enables image preprocessing, feature extraction, and classification.siriTool was demonstrated for detection of spot defects on pickling cucumbers.Abstract. Structured-illumination reflectance imaging (SIRI) is an emerging imaging modality that provides more useful discriminative features for enhancing detection of defects in fruit and other horticultural and food products. In this study, we developed a Matlab graphical user interface (GUI), siriTool (available at https://codeocean.com/capsule/5699671/tree), to facilitate image analysis in SIRI for fruit defect detection. The GUI enables image preprocessing (i.e., demodulation, object segmentation, and image enhancement), feature extraction and selection, and classification. Demodulation is done using a three-phase or two-phase approach depending on the image data acquired, object segmentation (or background removal) is implemented based on automatic unimodal thresholding, and image enhancement is achieved using fast bi-dimensional empirical decomposition followed by selective image reconstructions. For defect detection, features of different types are extracted from the enhanced images, and feature selection is performed to reduce the feature set. Finally, the full or reduced set of features are then input into different classifiers, e.g., support vector machine (SVM), for image-level classifications. An application example is presented on the detection of yellowish subsurface spot defects in pickling cucumbers. SIRI achieved over 98% classification accuracies based on SVM modeling with the extracted features, which were significantly better than the accuracies obtained under uniform illumination. Keywords: Defect detection, Demodulation, Image enhancement, Machine learning, Matlab, Structured illumination.

Abstract. Despite the availability of both commercial and open source software, an ideal tool for digital rock physics analysis for accurate automatic image analysis at ambient computational performance is difficult to pin point. More often image segmentation is driven manually where the performance remains limited to two phases. Discrepancies due to artefacts causes inaccuracies in image analysis. To overcome these problems, we have developed CobWeb 1.0 which is automated and explicitly tailored for accurate grayscale (multi-phase) image segmentation using unsupervised and supervised machine learning techniques. The simple and intuitive layout of the graphical user interface enables easy access to perform Image enhancement, Image segmentation and further to obtain the accuracy of different segmented classes. The graphical user interface enables not only processing of a full 3D digital rock dataset but also provides a quick and easy region-of-interest selection, where a representative elementary volume can be extracted and processed. The CobWeb software package covers image processing and machine learning libraries of MATLAB® used for image enhancement and image segmentation operations, which are compiled into series of windows executable binaries. Segmentation can be performed using unsupervised, supervised and ensemble classification tools. Additionally, based on the segmented phases, geometrical parameters such as pore size distribution, relative porosity trends and volume fraction can be calculated and visualized. The CobWeb software allows the export of data to various formats such as ParaView (.vtk), DSI Studio (.fib) for visualization and animation and Microsoft® Excel and MATLAB® for numerical calculation and simulations. The capability of this new software is verified using high-resolution synchrotron tomography datasets, as well as lab-based (cone-beam) X-ray micro-tomography datasets. Albeit the high spatial resolution (sub-micrometer), the synchrotron dataset contained edge enhancement artefacts which were eliminated using a novel dual filtering and dual segmentation procedure.

Circulating cell DNA (cfDNA) design identification assumes a cardinal job in fetal drug, transplantation and oncology. Be that as it may, it has additionally demonstrated to be a biomarker for different maladies. There are numerous order strategies by which the acknowledgment and arrangement should be possible. So as to have a superior time unpredictability and improve the precision further, this strategy targets distinguishing and arranging the general DNA examples and ailments related with them utilizing cfDNA Images in a Convolution Neural Network. A probabilistic method is used for cfDNA image feature extraction, fragmentation and interpretation. Graphical User Interface is the platform where this method is employed since it uses visual indicators in place of text-based interface. The aftereffects of this test demonstrate that the Convolution Neural Network calculation can perceive cfDNA successions accurately and successfully with no dubiety. Prepared with examples, the CNN can effectively characterize the picture surrendered to coordinated and unparalleled examples with numerical highlights.

AbstractWe have developed a versatile instrument for in situ measurement of motions of MEMS. Images of MEMS are magnified with an optical microscope and projected onto a CCD camera. Stroboscopic illumination is used to obtain stop-action images of the moving structures. Stopaction images from multiple focal planes provide information about 3D structure and 3D motion. Image analysis algorithms determine motions of all visible structures with nanometer accuracy.Hardware for the system includes the microscope, CCD camera and associated frame grabber, piezoelectric focusing element, and a modular stimulator that generates arbitrary periodic waveforms and synchronized stroboscopic illumination. These elements are controlled from a Pentium-based computer using a graphical user interface that guides the user through both data collection and data analysis. The system can measure motions at frequencies as high as 5 MHz with nanometer resolution, i.e., well below the wavelength of light.
