Digital Imaging Processing- Day 1

Imaging datasets are becoming easier to acquire and more difficult to analyze. This workshop will provide an introduction to some of the computational tools available for manipulating images and extracting quantitative information from them. The main focus of this workshop will be on cellular imaging however much of the techniques are broadly applicable to other data types. We will cover image conversion and handling in python, different methods for normalizing, aligning and segmenting images and finally work on applying these techniques to a full image processing pipeline. The workshop will feature many hands-on exercises as well as some of the theory behind various key algorithms.
