Hi All,
I have not found any references to implementations of the Robust Automatic Threshold Selection (aka RATS) algorithm in ImageJ (or Java). We have used this with great success with fluorescent microscopy in the past in IDL, but would love to have access to it via ImageJ. Anybody heard of it before? Here is a general description for Michael Wilkinson... http://www.cs.rug.nl/~michael/teaching/mlrats.html And here is a much more detailed description by Gaetan Lehmann... http://www.insight-journal.org/InsightJournalManager/publications.php? journalid=6 The challenging part (for me) is that the image is regionalized using quadtrees - which I have implemented in IDL before, but might require something close to a miracle for me to whip up in Java. I would love to avoid reinventing the wheel if it already exists (and wheels that I make never come out all that round!) Thanks for any pointers.

Hi Ben,
A quick Google search for quadtree java yields source code and/or javadocs for multiple distinct implementations. Perhaps one of those would work for you. -Curtis On Nov 21, 2007 12:29 PM, Ben Tupper <[hidden email]> wrote: > Hi All, > > I have not found any references to implementations of the Robust > Automatic Threshold Selection (aka RATS) algorithm in ImageJ (or > Java).

Here is one that draws my eye... http://tinyurl.com/2aqeqn I had hopes of finding an ImageJ-centric implementation of a quadtree - something that already exploits ImageJ's Roi object and graphics. I'll give it a whack sometime soon.
