IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MICROFLUIDIC DEVICES
First Claim
1. A method for adjusting a classifier and processing an image of a microfluidic device, the method comprising:
- receiving a first image of a microfluidic device, the first image being associated with at least a first predetermined characteristic;
generating a first plurality of features based on at least information associated with the first image;
selecting a second plurality of features from the first plurality of features based on at least information associated with the first plurality of features and the at least a first predetermined characteristic;
determining a third plurality of features based on at least information associated with the second plurality of features;
processing information associated with the third plurality of features;
determining at least a first likelihood based on at least information based on the third plurality of features and a first plurality of parameters;
processing information associated with the first likelihood and the at least a first predetermined characteristic;
adjusting the first plurality of parameters based on at least information associated with the first likelihood and the at least a first predetermined characteristic.

Abstract
A method for processing an image of a microfluidic device. The method includes receiving a first image of a microfluidic device. The first image corresponds to a first state. Additionally, the method includes receiving a second image of the microfluidic device. The second image corresponds to a second state. Moreover, the method includes transforming the first image and the second image into a third coordinate space. Also, the method includes obtaining a third image based on at least information associated with the transformed first image and the transformed second image, and processing the third image to obtain information associated with the first state and the second state.
