Objects detection can be achieve, in very simple cases, using objects segmentation and identification. This is often coupled with signal, positional and morphometrics thresholding.
Objects detection can also be achieved using machine and deep learning techniques. While the latters over perform conventional segmentation techniques, they are not error free.
At MIAtecs, we juggle between methods that fit the best with your research topics and the correct the level of computing power.
Stomata detection
Stomata are pores that can be found in the epidermis of leaves, on the lower face, and other organs like stem. The pore is surrounded by two guard cells.
Stomata play a key role in the plant life since they allow the plant to breath through gaz exchanges.
