Development of an automatic identification algorithm for antibiogram analysis
Development of an Automatic Identification Algorithms (AIA) is proposed. AIA allows automatic scanning of inhibition zones obtained by antibiograms. 88.8% of the tests showed no difference between AIA and human readings. AIA resolved the overlapping of inhibition zones and other reading problems. Formation of a second inhibition halo were overcomed by AIA.
