Inspiralia project @Madrid, Spain (2012). The competitiveness of the European beekeeping sector is progressively falling due to the reduction of production as a direct consequence of the decrease in bee population. In addition, beekeeping products from countries with lower quality standards are gaining market share in Europe through an unfair competition. Furthermore, there is a lack […]
Publication François Chung, Tomás Rodríguez; A general framework for multi-focal image classification and authentication: Application to microscope pollen images; Inspiralia, Madrid, 2013. Abstract In this article, we propose a general framework for multi-focal image classification and authentication, the methodology being demonstrated on microscope pollen images. The framework is meant to be generic and based on […]
Publication François Chung, Tomás Rodríguez; Automatic pollen grain and exine segmentation from microscope images; Inspiralia, Madrid, 2012. Abstract In this article, we propose an automatic method for the segmentation of pollen grains from microscope images, followed by the automatic segmentation of their exine. The objective of exine segmentation is to separate the pollen grain in […]
