Detection of tubercle bacilli in Ziehl-Neelsen stained sputum slide images using Hu’s moment and HMLP network
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2012-06-18)
Manual screening by light microscopy is the most widely used method for tubercle bacilli detection in the developing country. However, it is a time consuming and labour-intensive process. In this paper, a method using image ...
Colour image enhancement using bright and dark stretching techniques for tissue based Tuberculosis Bacilli detection
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis, 2009-10-11)
Tuberculosis is a serious disease caused by infection with the germ Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Sputum sample analysis is a common method for TB bacilli detection. In some cases, tissue from the suspected system is also ...
Color thresholding method for image segmentation algorithm of Ziehl-Neelsen sputum slide images
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2008-11-12)
Most of the thresholding procedures involved setting of boundaries based on grey values or intensities of image pixels. In this paper, the thresholding is to be done based on color values in images of Ziehl-Neelsen sputum ...
Comparison of colour thresholding method using RGB and HSI information for Ziehl-Neelsen sputum slide images
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2010-05-10)
Image segmentation technique for Ziehl-Neelsen sputum slide image is an important factor in extracting tuberculosis (TB) bacilli from the background and sputum cells. Colour threshold using Red, Green, Blue (RGB) information ...
Performance comparison between RGB and HSI linear stretching for tuberculosis bacilli detection in ziehl-neelsen tissue slide images
(Institut of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (IEEE), 2009-11-18)
Ziehl-Neelsen staining method is commonly used for diagnosis of tuberculosis patients. Sputum or tissues samples are stained using this method before microscopic examination. However, manual screening is time consuming and ...
