Senior Design Project Topics for 2008-2009
Textural property analyzer for biopsy images
This project aims at designing and implementing a tool for the textural analysis of a biopsy image. In this project, you are expected to design and implement a tool with the following functionalities:
  • The tool loads, saves, and closes images in different image file formats.
  • The tool extracts different kinds of textural features from a image or a small part of the image, which is specified with a window.
  • The tool uses the extracted features for segmenting the image into its homogeneous regions.
  • The tool classifies the subimages according to the extracted textural features.
In this project, you will work on the images colon and breast biopsies taken with different magnifications; some of these images are shown below.
A high-magnification image of a colon tissue (normal)        A low-magnification image of a colon tissue (normal)        A low-magnification image of a colon tissue (cancerous)
A high-magnification image of a breast tissue (normal)        A low-magnification image of a breast tissue (normal)        A low-magnification image of a breast tissue (cancerous)
