3D visualization, processing and analysis of segmentation of cellular electron Tomograms

Project Title

3D visualization, processing and analysis of segmentation of cellular electron Tomograms

Project Area of Specialization Artificial IntelligenceProject Summary

1. Literature review of image processing techniques for electron tomogram, and identifying gaps in literature.
2. Organise publicly available tomograms as testing/validation data.
3. Selection of existing de-noising tools,
4. Selection of edge detectors.
5. Selection of segmentation tools.
6. Application of above selected tools on 3D tomograms collected at point (2).
7. 3D analysis of results achieved in (6).
8. Statistical analysis of comparative study done at (7).
9. Selection of best edge detector to recover high resolution information from tomograms.
10. Initiate the development of 3D visualization to determine the accuracy of extracted information.
11. Future Direction: Testing and cross-validation.

Project Objectives

Collectively this work aims to improve Biologists/Scientist understanding to use our computer aided techniques/methods to determine the structure of cells, organelles and macromolecules to answer their research questions.

Project Implementation Method

we intend to propose, develop and evaluate the image processing and segmentation tools to understand the detailed information from electron tomograms. 

Benefits of the Project

Collectively this work aims to help Biologists/Scientist understand their research questions related to their biological sampless.  Our computer aided techniques/methods woudl assisst biologists to determine the structure of cells, organelles and macromolecules to answer their research related questions.

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

As this is a research based project, we aim to show present our results in the form of images, and validate them using statistical some statistical techniques. At the end we will present a script containing the whole procesude inclusding denoising, edge detection and segmentation.
