Introduction To Image Analysis
Description
The course introduces novice users to basic concepts and techniques in quantitative image analysis. Major topics covered include image characteristics and visualization, object detection, image segmentation and extraction of quantitative measurements. Participants will learn how to automate their analysis with ImageJ macros.
The course will be a combination of presentations, interactive demos and numerous hands-on exercises. For hands-on sessions we will be using Fiji and Ilastik.
The entire course will be held online with zoom. So if you want to participate, make sure that you have zoom installed and a stable internet connection as well as a microphone and speakers/headphones.
The course will be a combination of presentations by the instructors, live demos and hands-on sessions. The software used for the practical sessions will be Fiji which is available free of charge.
The course is free of charge and provided as an in-kind contribution of FWCC.
