Antibiotic Resistance Image Process - ARIP
==========================================
This software is aimed to quantify bacterial resistance to antibiotics
by analysing pictures of phenotypic plates. Currently it supports 96
well plates where different bacteria are cultured with different
concentrations of antibiotics, but the application adapt to different
plates size in rows and columns. Computer vision algorithms have been
implemented in order to detect different levels of bacterial growth. As
a result, the software generates a report providing quantitative
information for each well of the plate. Pictures should be taken so that
the plate is square with the picture frame, the algorithm should be able
to cope with a slight rotation of the plate.
Key methods:
------------
- Hough Circles method to detect circles in an image
`doc <http://docs.opencv.org/2.4/doc/tutorials/imgproc/imgtrans/hough_circle/hough_circle.html>`__
- Wells segmentation using threshold feature of opencv
`doc <http://docs.opencv.org/2.4/modules/imgproc/doc/miscellaneous_transformations.html#threshold>`__
combining binary and otsu threshold
- Quality detection using a grid model by rows and columns and
clustering them, robust to scale and sensible rotation.
Execution:
----------
There are two ways for executing the process: binary or library \*
Binary using arip.py file allocated in the project:
.. code:: bash
python arip.py --image images/\<platename\>.png
- Library installing as described below:
.. code:: bash
import arip
arip.process({'image': 'images/sinteticplate.jpg'})
input:
~~~~~~
images/<platename>.png with a plate and ninety six wells
output:
~~~~~~~
- Image with extracted wells: images/<platename>/outputXXX.png
- Cropped image of extracted well:
images/<platename>/<row>\ *<column>*\ <resistance>\_<density>.png
- Report in json format: images/<platename>/report.json
- Log: images/<platename>/log.txt
description of schema: \* row: well row index \* column: well colmun
index \* total: well area in pixels \* resistance: absolute resistance
found in pixels \* density: density of the resistance found
report example:
::
"7-J":{
"density":0.17,
"column":"A",
"resistance":122,
"total":706,
"row":"4"
}
output images example:
::
4-A_122-0.23, is the well 4-A, with 122 pixels found as resistance with density of 17%
output log example:
::
customizing scale well: found False, num wells 93, min radius value 18, max radius value 23
customizing scale well: found False, num wells 96, min radius value 18, max radius value 24
customizing grid matching: found False, num wells recognized 96
Succesfully processed plate, found 96 wells

Installing arip
---------------
There are two ways of installing pynteractive: \* Cloning the project
.. code:: bash
$ git clone https://github.com/mazeitor/antibiotic-resistance-process.git
$ cd antibiotic-resistance-process
$ python setup.py install ### (as root)
- Via `Python package index <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pip>`__
(pip), TODO
.. code:: bash
$ pip install arip
TODO
----
- Normalizing radius by neighborhood instead of general average
- Working with static grids or masks
