Resumen de Diatoms classification using frequency domain techniques

Carlos Grima, Fernando Tadeo, Teresa Álvarez Álvarez, Jose Luis Arribas

• This paper presents an approach to the automaticclassification of diatoms based on image-processingtechniques. The main contribution is the development ofa pattern evaluated from a frequential analysis ofimages taken through microscope, post-processed toextract the relevant characteristics that distinguish thedifferent species. The final classification is carried outusing a competitive neural network, with promisingresults
