Fiji: Introduction to Scientific Image Processing Training Course

This instructor-led, live training in Portugal (online or onsite) is aimed at beginner-level to intermediate-level researchers and laboratory professionals who wish to process and analyze images related to histological tissues, blood cells, algae, and other biological samples.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Navigate the Fiji interface and utilize ImageJ’s core functions.
• Preprocess and enhance scientific images for better analysis.
• Analyze images quantitatively, including cell counting and area measurement.
• Automate repetitive tasks using macros and plugins.
• Customize workflows for specific image analysis needs in biological research.

Pattern Matching is a technique used to locate specified patterns within an image. It can be used to determine the existence of specified characteristics within a captured image, for example the expected label on a defective product in a factory line or the specified dimensions of a component. It is different from "Pattern Recognition" (which recognizes general patterns based on larger collections of related samples) in that it specifically dictates what we are looking for, then tells us whether the expected pattern exists or not.

Format of the Course

• This course introduces the approaches, technologies and algorithms used in the field of pattern matching as it applies to Machine Vision.
