Hi All,
I am looking for image processing software which can perform neuron network analyzing in a quantitative and automated manner. I was wondering whether image J/Fiji has such a plug in. I have series of phase-contrast images (attached one example) taken from growing neural cells, and I try to find a way to assess the differences in degree of cellular connectivity/networking between various conditions. I will be very glad if you could give me some advices on how/with which tools to do such analyses. thank you very much, Nurdan -- ImageJ mailing list: http://imagej.nih.gov/ij/list.html |
Hi Nurdan,
maybe machine-learning would be a easier way to do it than develop an entire image processing pipeline. ilastik ( http://www.ilastik.org/) software could help you. It can classify your images in such an fast and easy way! You would have three classes: - axon - soma+dendrites... - other Once you would have classified your images you could use the results for further statistical analysis.

thanks David, it sounds very practical. I will look at that and see what/how I can do.

Ilastik is a special-purpose software to provide image segmentation by machine learning and has a pretty sophisticated user interface. So if you need to integrate your segmentation into a larger image processing/analysis workflow, I'd suggest to go with the Advanced Weka Segmentation, otherwise Ilastik seems to be a good choice.

You have a very similar approach within Fiji:

Hi Johannes,
Thank you very much for your suggestions, highly appreciated. I will check Fiji's too and see what works best for the images I want to analyze. cheers, Nurdan >-----Original Message----- >From: ImageJ Interest Group [mailto:[hidden email]] On Behalf Of >Johannes Schindelin >Sent: Mittwoch, 8.

thanks Ignacio, I will also try Fiji. One question ahead; what exactly do the plots tell us about the images processed (segmented, having introduced objects like axons)?

Do you mean the "Plot result" option? That has to do with the accuracy
of the result. It's a way of visualizing how well the method performed based on true positive ratio vs false positive ratio. ignacio On Thu, Aug 9, 2012 at 10:20 PM, Oezkucur, Nurdan <[hidden email]> wrote: > thanks Ignacio, I will also try Fiji.
