IDENTIFICATION METHOD OF ROOTS THROUGH DIGITAL IMAGE SEGMENTATION

Abstract

This work aims to develop a software for digital image analysis of washed roots. The algorithm used in the segmentation process, whose purpose is to distinguish the roots of the rest of the image, is given. For the development of the software it was used Java with Intel's OpenCV library©, and Netbeans IDE development tool. To test the software it was used an image of soybean roots. The visual result shows that the developed software can be promising for the detection of a root image.
