Particle Counter Example

The main goal for ShapeLogic v 1.1 is to create an automatic color and gray scale particle counter example. This is the first use of ShapeLogic in medical image processing. There are currently particle counters available for ImageJ, however, ShapeLogic's particle counter will utilize declarative programming tools for a color image processing problem, making it function without manual user intervention.

The test images are taken from the sample images from ImageJ

Challenges

  • Finding background
  • Reasoning under uncertainty under the lazy stream library
  • Later finding overlapping particles and counting them separately
