Structural image analysis methods to classify dendritic structures
J. Vařenka, Roman Kubı́nek · Pattern Recognition and Image Analysis · 2008
There are many possible approaches for direct image classification of dendritic crystals. Dendritic crystallization can be observed by iron in special conditions; common examples are fern leafs or dendritic crystallized snowflakes. This contribution is especially focused on the new structural classification methods we used (Hough transform, fractal dimension estimation, and fuzzy assisted filtering and classification) and relates to our previous contribution. It contains the discriminatory analysis results of all methods we have used so far as well.
