Applying Parallel Computations in Problems of Processing Images of Fluorescent Point Emitters

Abstract

Approaches are discussed to solving the problem of automatic image recognition of point and paired fluorescent objects in a microscope’s field of view for a CCD camera, and for determining their parameters via parallel computing on the basis of a central processor. Results are presented from computations on Intel Core i5 and i7 microprocessors. Ways of distributing tasks over cores and stages of computation are described. The ability of parallel computing to shorten the length of point image processing is shown as well.
