The work is devoted to the development and research of the entropy criterion of image analysis on its corresponding to the method of RLE-compression. The Lab color model and the CIEDE1976 color estimation metric have been analyzed. The pixel information importance parameter has been introduced, which is based on the above described metric and allows us to estimate the importance of the adjacent pixel taking into consideration the information it introduces in relation to the previous pixel. The modified entropy image analysis criterion has been developed taking into account the pixel’s information importance parameter. The adequacy of the proposed criterion has been checked on the sample of standard test images and the feasibility of its use has been proved.

AbstractThe aim of this study was to develop discrimination models based on textural features for the identification of barley kernels infected with fungi of the genus Fusarium and healthy kernels. Infected barley kernels with altered shape and discoloration and healthy barley kernels were scanned. Textures were computed using MaZda software. The kernels were classified as infected and healthy with the use of the WEKA application. In the case of RGB, Lab and XYZ color models, the classification accuracies based on 10 selected textures with the highest discriminative power ranged from 95 to 100%. The lowest result (95%) was noted in XYZ color model and Multi Class Classifier for the textures selected using the Ranker method and the OneR attribute evaluator. Selected classifiers were characterized by 100% accuracy in the case of all color models and selection methods. The highest number of 100% results was obtained for the Lab color model with Naive Bayes, LDA, IBk, Multi Class Classifier and J48 classifiers in the Best First selection method with the CFS subset evaluator.

Clustering process is an essential part of the image processing. Its aim to group the data according to having the same attributes or similarities of the images. Consequently, determining the number of the optimum clusters or the best (well-clustered) for the image in different color models is very crucial. This is because the cluster validation is fundamental in the process of clustering and it reflects the split between clusters. In this study, the k-means algorithm was used on three colors model: CIE Lab, RGB and HSV and the clustering process made up to k clusters. Next, the Silhouette Index (SI) is used to the cluster validation process, and this value is range between 0 to 1 and the greater value of SI illustrates the best of cluster separation. The results from several experiments show that the best cluster separation occurs when k=2 and the value of average SI is inversely proportional to the number of k cluster for all color model. The result shows in HSV color model the average SI decreased 14.11% from k = 2 to k = 8, 11.1% in HSV color model and 16.7% in CIE Lab color model. Comparisons are also made for the three color models and generally the best cluster separation is found within HSV, followed by the RGB and CIE Lab color models.

The changes in absorption spectra of aqueous solutions of modern chlorine-containing photosensitizing preparations "Revixan" (Areal, Russia) and "Chloderm" (Chloderm, Russia) depending on the intensity of LED radiation with wavelength of 656 ± 10 nm and exposure time were studied in spectral range 600-700 nm. The parameters of the CIE Lab color model of the image of "Revixan" aqueous solution before and after LED exposure were investigated. The changes in absorption spectra of aqueous solutions of methylene blue with different initial concentrations arising after exposure to LED radiation with intensity of 180 ± 20 mW/cm2 were studied in the spectral range 400-900 nm. It was shown that the impact of LED radiation changes the absorption spectra of the studied preparations and increases the parameter L (lightness) of the CIE Lab color model for "Revixan". An increase in the LED radiation intensity and exposure time leads to a decrease in absorption for "Revixan" and "Chloderm" in spectral range 600-700 nm and to a shift of the peaks of absorption bands lying in this range towards a longer wavelength. The impact of LED radiation on aqueous solutions of methylene blue leads to a decrease in their absorption in spectral range 400-900 nm.

ASTM International publishes many standards specifically about microscopes and using microscopy. The value of these standards falls into three distinct categories. First, they can be a quick tutorial on how to perform some operation. E 1508, "Standard Guide to Quantitative Analysis by EDS" is only eight pages long and falls into this category. Second, they can be used to standardize a test and reporting method. The methods described in E 1382, "Standard Test Methods for Determining Grain Size by Semiautomatic and Automatic Image Analysis" are examples of procedures that have been agreed upon for many years.

Algorithms for the analysis of polychromatic interference patterns in images of thin stratified objects in optical microscopy are considered. The algorithms allow one to measure the thin-film optical thickness. A measurement method based on the comparison of colors of the interference image under study and a numerically simulated image is discussed. We discuss a mathematical model for the calculation and numerical simulation of interference patterns and algorithms for interference pattern processing. Color comparison in an RGB color model is described and limitations of such a method are shown. The feasibility of using a Lab color model is shown and algorithms of interference color comparison in this model are presented. Results of application of the presented algorithms to measuring the optical thickness of red blood cells in a blood smear are discussed. The estimation of the error and robustness of the proposed algorithms is conducted.

Broiler behavior is closely related to the breeding environment. Therefore, studying broiler behavior helps breeding farm workers to better carry out welfare breeding. In the breeding environment of yellow feather broilers, temperature, humidity, and ammonia concentration are the main factors that affect the behavior of the broilers. This study used a multichromatic aberration model to process the color images of yellow feather broilers to extract the activity feature of the broilers at different periods, utilized the Cb component of YCbCr color model and the b component of Lab color model to remove background litter in images, and employed the Q component of YIQ color model to remove the feeders and the drinkers from the image. The segmented images were constructed into an accumulator to generate a heat map of yellow feather broilers’ activity. Then, the correlation between the activity and the temperature and humidity index (THI) and the correlation between the activity and ammonia concentration were explored. The experiment found that the activity of the broilers was significantly positively correlated with ammonia concentration ( P < 0.05 ), indicating that the activity of yellow feather broilers increased with ammonia concentration ascending. Besides, the THI in the broiler chamber had a significant positive correlation with the ammonia data ( P < 0.01 ), indicating that when the THI in the broiler chamber increases, the ammonia concentration rises. The research provides a direction for exploring the impact of THI and ammonia concentration on the performance of yellow feather broilers. At the same time, it provides a theoretical basis for the early warning and judgment of broiler breeding by farm workers in the future.

Increased nuclear size, resulting in an increase in the relative proportion of nuclear to cytoplasmic sizes, is an important morphologic criterion for the evaluation of neoplastic and pre-neoplastic cells. This paper describes investigations into the suitability of automated image analysis for quantitating changes in nuclear and cytoplasmic cross-sectional areas in exfoliated cells from tracheas treated with carcinogen.Neoplastic and pre-neoplastic lesions were induced in the tracheas of Syrian hamsters with the carcinogen N-methyl-N-nitrosourea. Cytology samples were collected intra-tracheally with a specially designed catheter (1) and stained by a modified Papanicolaou technique. Three cytology specimens were selected from animals with normal tracheas, 3 from animals with dysplastic changes, and 3 from animals with epidermoid carcinoma. One hundred randomly selected cells on each slide were analyzed with a Bausch and Lomb Pattern Analysis System automated image analyzer.

In our initial publication on this subject1) we reported results demonstrating that contrast is the most important factor in producing the high image quality required for reliable image analysis. We also listed the factors which enhance contrast in order of the experimentally determined magnitude of their effect. The two most powerful factors affecting image contrast attainable with sheet film are beam intensity and KV. At that time we had only qualitative evidence for the ranking of enhancing factors. Later we carried out the densitometric measurements which led to the results outlined below.Meaningful evaluations of the cause-effect relationships among the considerable number of variables in preparing EM negatives depend on doing things in a systematic way, varying only one parameter at a time. Unless otherwise noted, we adhered to the following procedure evolved during our comprehensive study:Philips EM-300; 30μ objective aperature; magnification 7000- 12000X, exposure time 1 second, anti-contamination device operating.
