Abstract:

In the analysis of the characteristics about the microscopic leukocyte image sequence, a kind of grading contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization (GCLAHE) algorithm was presented in the preprocessing. This method can effectively enhance the cell contrast with the surrounding background, and can play a better filtering to eliminate noise effects, at the same time keep better cell boundary information, and then improve the cell tracking rate. 100 frames of continuous images sequence were processed in Matlab 7, the average false detection rate is 0.48%, and the average miss detection rate is 1.20%. It is shown that the algorithm can reduce cell miss detection rate and the false detection rate; improve cell detection and tracking precision.
