detecting mitochondria in fluorescence images
In this paper, we propose a method to localize mitochondria in fluorescence images of axons. The proposed method first finds a moderate threshold to detect differently illuminated mitochondria in the image. A region based analysis is then performed to filter out noisy pixels that are detected during the thesholding process. The method can locate the mitochondria more effectively than the traditional methods. Experimental results also show a better performance of the proposed approach.
