MATLAB: Image Processing Workshop (Online)

New

Join us for a two-hour workshop on image processing and analysis in MATLAB. This practical session provides a series of example workflows to extract quantitative data from image files.

This workshop is the first event in Imaging ONE WORLD, a series of events bringing together scientists working from home to deliver workshops and talks on imaging theory and analysis. An initiative made up of scientists, imaging systems and software providers in collaboration to deliver high quality training to the image analysis community.

Although not a necessity, we recommend attending the Introduction to MATLAB course run at the Training Facility and / or the Intro to MATLAB using MathWorks prior to the workshop. For the MathsWorks course you will need to sign up for a MathWorks Account. All University of Cambridge members should be eligible to obtain a MathWorks Account. Create an account using your institution email address.

Please note that if you are not eligible for a University of Cambridge Raven account you will need to Book or register Interest by linking here.

• Graduate students, Postdocs and Staff members from the University of Cambridge, Affiliated Institutions and other external Institutions or individuals
• Please be aware that there is no charge for this workshop.
• Further details regarding eligibility criteria are available here

• The session is tailored for Masters and Research-level students that analyse images / videos for scientific research in biological or medical research.
• All levels of MATLAB proficiency are welcome on this workshop.

Number of sessions: 1

Bioinformatics, Biology, Data handling

After this course you should be able to:

• Import / export image and video files
• Process images to adjust size, contrast and brightness
• Remove noise and disturbance with linear and non-linear kernel filters
• Isolate (segment) objects in an image based on colour, intensity, texture or shape
• Count objects and extract object properties like area, centroids, perimeter, eccentricity
• Apply algorithms to batch process a series of images or videos

During this course you will learn about:

• How to develop your skills in processing images and video files using MatLab.
