Semi-automated

It implements the template matching function from the OpenCV library. The java interface of OpenCV was done through the javacv library. It is quite similar as the existing template matching plugin but runs much faster and users could choose among six matching methods: 

1.Squared difference

2.Normalized squared difference

3.Cross-correlation

4.Normalized cross-correlation

5.Correlation coefficient

6.Normalized correlation coefficient

The detailed algorithms could be found here.

The cvMatch_Template will search a specific object (image pattern) over an image of interest by the user-specified method. 

This ImageJ plugin contains two functions. The first one is the cvMatch_Template. It implements the template matching function from the OpenCV library. The second function Align_slices in stack utilized the previous matching function to do slice registration(alignment) based on a selected landmark. 

For more details, refer to the page of each component.

Deep learning based restoration, with guidelines for training. See also the Fiji plugin.

Deep learning for fluorescence image restoration (denoising, deconvolution). Requires training on your data set but the procedure is described.

Neuroconductor is an open-source platform for rapid testing and dissemination of reproducible computational imaging software, specialized in brain medical imaging (MRI, fMRI, DTI, etc...) but that could be used on a wider range of images. The goals of the project are to:

• provide a centralized repository of R software dedicated to image analysis;
• disseminate quickly software updates;
• educate a large, diverse community of scientists using detailed tutorials and short courses;
• ensure quality via automatic and manual quality controls; and
• promote reproducibility of image data analysis.

Based on the programming language R, Neuroconductor starts with 68 inter-operable packages that cover multiple areas of imaging including visualization, data processing and storage, and statistical inference. Neuroconductor accepts new R package submissions, which are subject to a formal review and continuous automated testing.
