Particle tracking using MATLAB

    I needed to track multiple particles of different shapes that changed their shape and orientation. After testing out a few I settled for the scripts that I obtained from the Howard Berg Lab website.

    My solution involved adding separate segmentation and tracking modules. Segmentation algorithms allow a selection of 4 different types of binarization- based on

    1. simple thresholding,
    2. automatic thresholding,
    3. thresholding after anisotropic diffusion and
    4. particle number based thresholding.
