Digital image analysis for automatic enumeration of malaria parasites using morphological operations
作者：
Highlights：
• An automatic system for enumeration of malaria parasites is proposed.
• The method relies on adaptive processing techniques for extracting local features.
• Regional minimum and closing operations play an important role as well.
• A fast, accurate and low time-consuming method is obtained.
• It might be used in laboratories without the necessity of spending a lot of money.
