We are intreated in getting feedback on creating standards and interfaces for microscopy image analysis in ITK
Key Investigators
- Harvard - Sean Megason
Objective
There are now several groups using ITK to develop filters for microscopy image analysis. However there are a number of possibilities for the input and output formats for these filters. For filters from different groups to be interchangeable, it is important that these filters use a defined interface. The goal of this project is to solicit opinions from both groups working on microscopy image analysis as well as those with experience designing interfaces for image processing.
Approach, Plan
If you have opinions, suggestions, or interfaces you are already using please talk to Sean and come to the Microscopy Image Analysis breakout session on Wed afternoon.
Issues
Specifically we would like to define functional groups of filters (e.g. denoising, seeding, segmentation, tracking, lineaging, post-processing, quantitation, classification) to allow for filter swapping within a group and then to define input/output types between these groups. ImageToImage filters are a sufficient interface for some filter groups but are problematic for others due to changes in dimension (tracking, lineaging), excess size (seeding), and differences with the "natural" output of an algorithm (e.g. a segmentation algorithm may output a mesh rather than image).
