摘要:Malaria parasitemia is a measurement of the amount of Malaria parasites in the patient's blood and an indicator for the degree of infection. In this paper an automatic technique is proposed for Malaria parasites detection from blood images by extracting red blood cells (RBCs) from blood image and classifying as normal or parasite infected. Manual counting of parasitemia is tedious and time consuming and need experts. Proposed automatic approach is used Otsu thresholding on gray image and green channel of the blood image for cell segmentation, watershed transform is used for separation of touching cells, color and statistical features are extracted from segmented cells and SVM binary classifier is used for classification of normal and parasite infected cells.
