| 摘要 |
A method for analysing microbial growth on a solid culture medium, the method including obtaining image data of the solid culture medium and any microbial growth, generating an associated feature vector of values obtained by applying one or more filters to the image data, using a classifier to classify each pixel in a plurality of pixels in the image data based on the associated feature vector, analysing results of pixel classifications of each said pixel to derive a microbiological assessment of the solid culture medium and any microbial growth, and outputting the microbiological assessment. |

1. A method for analysing microbial growth on a solid culture medium, the method including:
obtaining, using a processor, image data of the solid culture medium and any microbial growth, for a plurality of pixels in the image data, generating, using a processor, an associated feature vector of values obtained by applying one or more filters to the image data, using a classifier to classify, using a processor, each pixel in the plurality of pixels based on the associated feature vector, analysing, using a processor, results of pixel classifications of each said pixel to derive a microbiological assessment of the solid culture medium and any microbial growth, and outputting the microbiological assessment. |
