Image processing

Matlab implementation (2014) of Local Binary Pattern. Used for texture image analysis with insensitivity to local average value. Good explanation here: http://www.ee.oulu.fi/research/imag/mvg/files/pdf/ICCV2009_tutorial.pdf

This package contains some MatLab tools for multi-scale image processing. Briefly, the tools include: - Recursive multi-scale image decompositions (pyramids), including Laplacian pyramids, QMFs, Wavelets, and steerable pyramids. These operate on 1D or 2D signals of arbitrary dimension. Data structures are compatible with the MatLab wavelet toolbox. - Fast 2D convolution routines, with subsampling and boundary-handling. - Fast point-operations, histograms, histogram-matching. - Fast synthetic image generation: sine gratings, zone plates, fractals, etc. - Display routines for images and pyramids. These include several auto-scaling options, rounding to integer zoom factors to avoid resampling artifacts, and useful labeling (dimensions and gray-range).

The jicbioimage Python package makes it easy to explore microscopy data in a programmatic fashion (python).

Exploring images via coding means that the exploratory work becomes recorded and reproducible.

Furthermore, it makes it easier to convert the exploratory work into (semi) automated analysis work flows.

Features:

• Built in functionality for working with microscopy data
• Automatic generation of audit trails
• Python integration Works with Python 2.7, 3.3 and 3.4

SIMToolbox: a MATLAB toolbox for structured illumination microscopy SIMToolbox is an open-source, modular set of functions for MATLAB designed for processing data acquired by structured illumination microscopy. Both optical sectioning and super-resolution applications are supported. The software is also capable of maximum a posteriori probability image estimation (MAP-SIM), an alternative method for reconstruction of structured illumination images. MAP-SIM can potentially reduce reconstruction artifacts, which commonly occur due to refractive index mismatch within the sample and to imperfections in the illumination. 2665
