Image registration

Image registration is the process of transforming different sets of data into one coordinate system. Registration is necessary in order to be able to compare or integrate the data obtained from different sensors/imaging modalities, at different times, from different view points, etc. . Registration can be based on correspondence established between the landmarks or feature points. Alternatively, some similarity/distance metric is established between the image intensity maps to navigate the registration process.

Description

QuantiFish is a quantification program intended for measuring fluorescence in images of zebrafish, although use with images of other specimens is possible. This package is geared towards analysis of fluorescent infection models. The software is designed to automate processing of images of single fish, and outputs results as a .csv file. Alongside measures of total fluorescence above a threshold, this package also introduces several measures for dissemination and distribution of fluorescence throughout the specimen.

QuantiFish User Interface
Description

Epina ImageLab is a Microsoft Windows-based multisensor imaging tool for processing and analyzing hyperspectral images. It is a modular system consisting of a basic engine, a graphical user interface, a chemometrics toolbox and optional user-supplied modules. It supports the most important spectroscopic imaging techniques, such as UV/Vis, infrared, Raman, THz, optical emission/absorption, and mass spectrometry. On top of that Epina ImageLab enables the user to merge hyperspectral images with maps of physical properties and conventional high-resolution color photos.
