EBImage-package {EBImage} | R Documentation |
EBImage
is the image processing and analysis package for R. Its primary
goal is to enable automated analysis of large sets of images such as those
obtained in high throughput automated microscopy.
The package uses ImageMagick
library for image I/O operations and
for many image processing routines. Algorithms for image analysis are
implemented natively including algorithms for feature extraction.
Image data are stored in objects of the class Image
, which
is derived as an S4 class from array
and inherits all of its
properties and methods.
