Quantitative histogram analysis of images

Abstract
A routine for histogram analysis of images has been written in the object-oriented, graphical development environment LabVIEW. The program converts an RGB bitmap image into an intensity-linear greyscale image according to selectable conversion coefficients. This greyscale image is subsequently analysed by plots of the intensity histogram and probability distribution of brightness, and by calculation of various parameters, including average brightness, standard deviation, variance, minimal and...

Title of program: HAWGC - histogram analysis with grayscale conversion
Catalogue Id: ADXG_v1_0

Nature of problem
Quantification of image data (e.g., for discrimination of molecular species in gels or fluorescent molecular probes in cell cultures) requires proprietary or complex software packages, which might not include the relevant statistical parameters or make the analysis of multiple images a tedious procedure for the general user.

摘要
一种基于面向对象、图形化开发环境LabVIEW的图像直方图分析方法已被编写。该程序能够根据可选择的转换系数，将RGB位图图像转换成强度线性的灰度图像。随后，通过对亮度直方图和概率分布的绘制，以及计算包括平均亮度、标准差、方差、最小值和最大值在内的多种参数，对灰度图像进行分析。
程序名称：HAWGC - 基于灰度转换的直方图分析
目录编号：ADXG_v1_0
问题性质
图像数据的量化（例如，用于凝胶中分子物种的区分或细胞培养中荧光分子探针的检测）通常需要专有或复杂的软件包，而这些软件包可能不包含相关的统计参数，或者使得普通用户对多张图像的分析变得繁琐。
