Abstract
Aspects of the subject technology provide improved pixel detection techniques including improvements to motion detection and processing resource conservation. Improved techniques include determining a metric of mutual information between a pair of images from a sequence of images of a biological sample, detecting a motion of the biological sample based on the metric of mutual information, and, after the motion is detected, performing a measurement of the biological sample based on a test image of the sequence of images.
Claims20
An image processing method, comprising:
- determining a metric of mutual information between at least a pair of images from a sequence of images of a biological sample;
- detecting a motion of the biological sample based on the metric of mutual information;
- and
- after the motion is detected, performing a measurement of the biological sample based on a test image of the sequence of images.
An image processing device, comprising a controller configured to cause:
- determining a metric of mutual information between at least a pair of images from a sequence of images of a biological sample;
- detecting motion in the biological sample based on the metric of mutual information;
- and
- after the motion is detected, performing a measurement of the biological sample based on a test image of the sequence of images.
A non-transitory computer readable memory storing instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:
- determine a metric of mutual information between at least a pair of images from a sequence of images of a biological sample;
- detect a motion of the biological sample based on the metric of mutual information;
- and
- after the motion is detected, perform a measurement of the biological sample based on a test image of the sequence of images.
