GSA Image Analyser
1. General information
The GSA Image Analyser is a tool specially designed for the creation and analysis of 2D
image objects. The objects can be identified on the basis of their specific colouration and bedistinguished in this way from their environment. For an analysis the following automatic
functions are provided :
number of identified objects
2D object area computation
object area ratio to total area (density)
determination of object length
counting of intersection points in a raster
visualization of colour distribution
Additional functions : manual counting by marking areas
manual counting by image splitting
creation of images
image processing functions
2. Description of functions
2.1 Creation of graphic data
To create the required graphic data a Twain interface is provided. By means of this interface
all optical devices such as scanner, digital cameras, video cameras or microscopes can be
controlled by the program.
2.2 Selection of devices
To select the needed Twain device you have to use the menu item File > Select Source. A
window appears listing all existing devices.
Figure 1. Device selection window
8/7/2019 GSA_Image_Analyser_eng
4/32
2.3 Scan
Use the menu item File > Scan in order to open the desired device program for the creation
and export of image files.
Figure 2. Scan mask
In figure 2 a control program of a Canon colour picture scanner is shown.
Detailed operating instructions have to be extracted from the program documentation of theproducer.
In general you have to consider which colour mode or resolution of the target file is selected.
The colour mode selection depends on how individual image objects differ from each other. If
a greyscale analysis allows a clear differentiation so the mode Greyscale can be reasonable.
Otherwise the mode Colourhas to be selected.
Concerning the image resolution you have to take into account that a higher resolution leads
to a more precise analysis on the one hand. On the other hand it requires a longer processing
time and more memory capacity.
Devices used for enlarging images (e.g. microscope) require the input of a magnification
factor. A corresponding window appears automatically or can be opened by the menu item
Options > Magnification factor(see chapter 6.7).
Figure 3. Input mask magnification factor Figure 4. Control mask - Mikokular (microscope)
If the magnification factor is unknown, such as at photographs made by a digital camera, it is
necessary to take a test photo with a scale (e.g. ruler). The magnification factor then can be
8/7/2019 GSA_Image_Analyser_eng
5/32
determined on the basis of the difference between the scale and the length measuring of the
scale done by the program after scanning (see chapter 4.3).
2.4 Twain input mask
To use the Twain input mask of the selected Twain device you have to activate the option File
> Show twain input mask. Otherwise it is tried to import the image on the basis of standard
settings :
Scanner (default):
resolution 100 dpi
colour depth 24 Bit
width 210 mm
length 297 mm
Mikrokular (microscope)
resolution 320 x 240 dpi
colour depth 24 Bit
2.5 Filemanagement
2.5.1 Open files
By default the image file formatMYP is offered.MYP is a program internal format, including
a packed image without loss and additional needful information such as the magnificationfactor and more.
Image files of the formats BMP and JPEG can be loaded too. In this case parameters
concerning resolution, colour depth (menu item Options > dpi and resolution) or
magnification factor have to be defined manually (see chapter 6.6 and 6.7).
2.5.2 Close files
By default image files are stored in the format MYP (see chapter 2.5.1).
It is also possible to store it in a BMP format, but then all additional parameters(magnification factor ) get lost.
Please note : The image of the work space is stored in WYSIWYG mode. If the image should
have been changed, these changes are stored too, e.g. raster display or display mode
black/yellow (see chapter 6.3 and 3.2).
2.6 Create image objects
This function provides the area computation of objects whose contours are captured by a
graphic input device.
8/7/2019 GSA_Image_Analyser_eng
6/32
2.6.1 Create images
To create the image please select the menu item File > Create.
Figure 4.: Creation of an image
The creation of a drawing area (A2 A5) requires a calibrating of the input device (seeCalibrate input device ).
2.6.2 Calibrate input devices
With this function the resolution capability of the mouse is determined (DPI) .
Figure 5.: Calibrate the input device
1. Select calibration distance and unit2. Press the left mouse button and go along the section of measurements
Press the button System parameters mouse in order to configure the mouse, if the resolution of
the mouse should be too large. A DPI value bigger then 500 leads to a slowdown of the
program execution, because the image size has to be matched with these settings.
Select the button Finish Calibration for applying the determined settings.
8/7/2019 GSA_Image_Analyser_eng
7/32
2.6.3 Draw objects
It is possible to draw objects either on an empty work space (format DIN A2 A5) or on a
loaded template.
Objects can be generated by two different methods :1) Freehand2) Connected lines
1) Freehand
Set the mouse on the object (arrow or the like) first, press the left mouse button then and go
around the object with the mouse button keeping pressed.
After releasing the button the starting point will be connected automatically with the end point
and the object is filled.
Please note : The starting point is located in the upper left region of the drawing area. The
visible changes automatically when drawing (within the format definition A4, A5). If the
defined working space is left while drawing a system tone raises.
Press the buttonApply to make the created image available in the main program (only
available in a full version) for an automatic computation of the object area.
2) Connected lines
Set the mouse on the object and press the left mouse button. The starting point is marked on
the drawing area as a small black point. Move the mouse to the next object point and press the
left button. The points are connected automatically. Additional points have to be marked in
the same way.
Press the right mouse button at last to connect the starting and end point. The object is filled
automatically.Please note : Keep the left button pressed to activate the auto scroll function. In this case press
the right button to mark single points. Both buttons have to be released to finish the process.
Press the right button once again and the object will be shown as described above. If the
defined work space is left a system tone raises.
Press the buttonApply to transfer the created image to the main program (only available in a
full version) for an automatic computation of the object area.
The NUM buttons 4,8,6 and 2 can also be used for scrolling.

2.7 Video interface
As shown in figure 8 it is possible to import images directly
by diverse video equipment such as frame grabber, video grabber etc.
Figure 6. Video
Select the desired video input and please enter the camera resolution
and magnification factor into the provided fields (seel also chapter
7.2 Calibration). Press then the button 'Picture' to import
the image as a snapshot in your programme.

2.8 Stack processing
In stack processing mode multiple images (e.g. image sequences) can be opened concurrently
in a stack. The target is to generate a new image resulting from multiple source images.
Figure 7. Opening in batch mode
2.8.1 Data file list
An unlimited number of images can be listed to generate the desired image stack.
The list entries can be sorted either automatically (click on column header) or manually (use
right mouse button or button on the left side of the table or function keys F5 to F8). It is
furthermore possible to rotate an image within the defined stack. To display an image on the
monitor on the left side simply click on the corresponding list entry. All created lists can be
stored for later processing.
2.8.2 Create a stack
With a click on the button Create stack all images of the list will be merged into a stack in
the given order. The result is to be seen on the monitor on the right.
8/7/2019 GSA_Image_Analyser_eng
10/32
2.8.3 Monitor windows
The monitor windows are intended to control images respectively to select images from the
list. Several options for image scaling are offered. The mode Scale allows to zoom in and
out by the function keys F9 or F10.
Figure 8: Monitor windows
2.8.4 Changing alpha values in the stack
It is possible to change the visibility (alpha values) of single stack images in order to createindividually a new image.
2.8.4.1 To change alpha values harmonically
Figure 9: To change alpha values harmonically
With the left slide control it is possible to define the master image of the stack. For example,
there are 10 images in the stack and the controller is at five, that means the 5th
image is fully
visible. All other images, lying before or behind, are damped visible corresponding to the
slider on the right. Concerning our example we have the following alpha-values:
Image 1 : 0; Image 2 : 21; Image 3 : 99; Image 4 : 177; Image 5 : 255
Image 6 : 177; Image 7 : 99; Image 8 : 21; Image 9 : 0; Image 10 : 0
That means, the images 1, 9 and 10 will have no influence on the resulting image.
8/7/2019 GSA_Image_Analyser_eng
11/32
By moving the left slider you can go through the stack. The image blending is, corresponding
to the setting of the right slider, more or less fluently (on 100 % the master image is equal to
the output image).
2.8.4.2 To change alpha values individually
Figure 10: To change alpha values individually
With this setting you are able to set alpha values for every single image of the stack
individually. The result (a blended image) is displayed in the right monitor window. An alpha
value of 255 means a high visibility, 0 means invisibility.
2.8.5 To apply an image for the purpose of analysis
After the completion of the image the result can be transferred to the main program. Press the
button Apply to do so. You then will be asked to enter the image resolution, the file type
and the used image magnification manually. These values are the basis for the following area
or length calculation .

3.1 Colour indication and defining of limit values for object identification
Colour representation :
When moving the mouse pointer over an image the colour ratio of the touched pixels will be
shown in the fieldsRed, Green andBlue. To define a colour average of the relevant pixels
keep the key STRG pressed simultaneously. The automatically calculated average value willbe buffered and also displayed in the fields Red, Green and Blue. Please press the key S to
load the calculated average colour value into the windowLimit values for object
identification.
Figure 9. Average colour values and positive/negative maximum values
To apply the values shown in the fieldsRed, Green andBlue to the object identification you
have to press the buttonAdd( see figure 9 ). The colour values and the reached minimum
and/or maximum values are inserted into the table and are considered for the object
identification. Generally it is possible to add more values here.
When moving across the object it is advisable to enlarge the image in order to avoid to crossthe object edge.
Please note : Press the keyR to delete all entries of the colour value buffer. So a new average
colour value can be defined.
The procedure just described can be carried out also directly in the maskLimit values for
object identification. Look for the desired image detail ( if necessary zoom in ), keep the key
STRG pressed and move with your mouse pointer across the part of the image whose limit
value have to be determined. The result will be displayed in the right window by pressing the
key S ( the option Preview has to be activated before). To see the result already when moving
the mouse across the image area you have to activate the optionApply limit values
immediately. If the values shown in the fieldsRed, Green andBlue are to be used for the
object identification, then please press the buttonAdd.
8/7/2019 GSA_Image_Analyser_eng
14/32
Figure 10. Analysis of three image regions and determination of the corresponding tolerance values for object identification
Background identification :
The determination of the entire object area requires a differentiation from background.
Proceed analogously to the method described in section Colour representation and save all
determined background colour values in the listLimit values for background identification.
Automatic extension of limit values:
Please note, for this function an active background recognition is essential.
This function analyses all pixels (yellow), which could not be classified
and tries to assign it automatically to one of the two groups (object or
background). Can an assignment be made the limit values of the corresponding
group will be extended in a way that the pixel matches the group.
By activating the option "With distance consideration" also pixels can
be classified where an assignement of two colours in both groups would
be possible. In that case the choice of the group will
be made on the base of the minor distance of the third colour.
8/7/2019 GSA_Image_Analyser_eng
15/32
Greyscale representation:
Principally the procedure is identically to those described before. Instead of the three basic
colour values a grey tone is shown. Here not the colour average of the relevant pixels is
determined, but the maximum value.
Figure 11. Limit value for object identification in greyscale representation
In figure 11 you can see some defined limit values for the identification of very dark (0-50)
and bright (200-255) objects.
Black-and-white representations:
Only objects with a greytone of 0 (black) are identified. All other values are ignored.
3.2 Apply limit values to images
In order to apply the determined limit values (see chapter 3.1) to the image you have to
activate the checkboxApply limit values to the image. A computation process starts and the
result is shown in form of a black/yellow representation. Black means, that the object could be
identified and used for the analysis. To check the identified objects you can press the button
Original Image or the key [O]. So you can switch between both representations (original andblack/yellow) very quickly.
8/7/2019 GSA_Image_Analyser_eng
16/32
Figure 12. Original image and object identification
Areas represented in grey had been identified as the background. This area will not be
considered for the analysis (object area computation). The total object area (yellow and black)
will be schown in the lower status bar.
4. Analysis functions
4.1 Area
The area of all identified objects of the image is computed and displayed considering the
selected unit of measurement (see chapter 6.2). The computation can be restarted by pressing
the buttonReset.
An image detail can be picked for a more precise analysis. Mark the desired image detail with
the right mouse button keep pressed or use the menu itemEdit > Cut and paste.
Within the representation of the applied limit values it is possible to click directly on the
objects of interest. The corresponding area is computed and the selected object is displayed in
another colour (Red). Furthermore the number of pixels is shown in the lower status bar. This
value will be used in the process of an automatic object counting.
Additionally you have the ability to research a custom area with a free-hand-drawing tool.
8/7/2019 GSA_Image_Analyser_eng

Figure 13. Area computation of an object
4.1.1 Output of determined object areas according size groups
This function checks all determined object areas of the image and
arranges them according to size. To call this function please
press the key 'Calculate' in the toolbar for object counting (seechapter 4.4). Object areas which do not meet the specified
criterias for minimum and maximum number of pixels are not included
in the output.
Figure : Option 'Output of object areas according size groups'
The dimensions of the used size groups are freely selectable.
For that the desired number of pixels is to be specified(the resulting area value is displayed in brackets). The total
number of size groups then results from the largest object of the image.
For example:
Number of pixels of the largest object: 8680 pixel
dimension of classes in pixel: 500 (14,33 mm)
18 size groups will be generated.
8/7/2019 GSA_Image_Analyser_eng
18/32
Figure: Output of the area analysis
4.2 Density
This function computes the proportion from object area (all identified object) to total image
area. Press the button Computate (available only in mode yellow/black representation) to start
this process. In general it provides the proportion from the object area ( yellow and black ) to
the determined area (black). If you did mark single objects (by mouse click) then the
proportion from the marked objects to the total object area (yellow and black) is provided.
4.3 Length
A manual measurement of the object length can be made by the left mouse button keepingpressed. The length of the covered line will be shown in the fieldLength depending on the
defined unit of measurement.
All measured values will be added simultaneously in the field Total. Press the button Reset in
order to reset the calculated value.
To start an automatic calculation of the length of all identified objects please press the button
Calculate (only available in the yellow / black representation ). As a result you will see the
contours of the corresponding objects on the image (see chapterLength determination of plant
roots ). Again you can use the free-hand-drawing tool for custom areas in this view.

4.4 Object counting
With this function all identified objects can be counted automatically. The number of objects
can be reduced by using the optionsMinimum number of pixels per objectand Maximum
number of pixels per object. Click on the single object to determine its number of pixels.
Figure 15. Object counting
This function is only available in the yellow / black representation. All counted objects can be
displayed in red colour by pressing the button Show objects.
Additionally you have the ability to research a custom area with a free-hand-drawing tool.

Figure 16. Presentation of the counted objects
4.4.1 Settings for object counting of overlapping objects
The separation of overlapping object can be made by comparison of either object surfaces or
intensities. In addition, there is the possibility to separate circular or ellipsoidal objects by
means of object recognition.
Figure 17. Settings for object separation
8/7/2019 GSA_Image_Analyser_eng
21/32
4.4.1.2 Separation of overlapping objects by object area comparison
The reference area can be specified by hand. The specification is made in pixel. Its best to
click on the reference object within the yellow/black presentation to determine the number of
object pixels and to fill it into the corresponding field automatically.
The second possibility for specifying a reference area is to determine either the average value
or the median of the object areas. All objects fulfilling the conditions described in chapter 4.4
are now compared with the reference area. Whole divisors are increasing the object counter,
the remainder will be treated depending on similarity defaults (sliding control).
Figure 18. Object separation by using the average value of object areas
4.4.1.3 Separation of overlapping objects by intensity comparison
Another way for counting overlapping objects is by using the object intensity. This option is
available individually or combined with area separation (chapter 4.4.1.2) or object recognition(chapter 4.4.1.3). Completely overlapping objects so can be counted separately providing that
the resulting intensity differs from the intensity of the single objects.
If both options (intensity and object area) are used the separation by object area comparison
takes priority. This means that only objects are treated by intensity comparison which could
not be separated by object area comparison. The sensitivity of the intensity comparison (total
intensity of all objects, AVG and/or median) to the average object intensity can be controlled
by means of a sliding control.

5. Colour distribution
This function provides an analysis of the colour distribution of the working space. This can
be helpful to determine the limit values for object identification.
Figure 23. Colour distribution 3D view
The Maneuvering within the representation can be done over a bar of buttons or by mouse.
Figure 24. Button bar
For zooming in and out please use the corresponding loupe buttons. For marking a specific
part you have to mark it by mouse with the left button keep pressed.
For scrolling please use either the corresponding arrow buttons or the mouse function when
keeping the right button pressed.
A changing between work space and colour distribution view can be made by the menu
optionsExtras > Determine colour distribution orExtras > Show work space.
6. Settings
6.1 Limit values for object identification
All limit values for object identification determined manually or automatically for the colour
and/or grey tone analysis can be managed here(see 2.3.1). The values are stored at the end of
the program and loaded automatically with the next start.
8/7/2019 GSA_Image_Analyser_eng
26/32
6.2 Units
The following units of measurement for the output of the result can be selected : meter,
millimetre, centimetre and/or inch.
6.3 Cursor and raster
When marking an image region or measuring the object length by mouse, the marked region
is drawn. These markings get lost when releasing the mouse button. To show it permanently
use this menu option.
When counting intersection points the raster used is placed on the image. The drawing can be
switched off too.
6.4 White balance
With this function an automatic image import is made by the selected device. No objects
should be located on the image. The maximum values of the found pixels (grey tone) are
indicated and can be used for a better definition of limit values in the process of the object
identification. Ideally the value should be 255 (white) for a scanner, that means no objects
(e.g. dust) was found. If the determined value should be smaller than 255, then an object
identification is only possible below the measured value.
For example :
Figure 25. Recommended threshold value for object identification
A detailed evaluation can be made by the chart of the colour distribution (see also chapter 5).

6.5 Language
The offered program languages are German and English.
6.6 Dpi and colour depth
To set the required resolution and colour depth you can use this menu item.
When creating images by a twain interface or loading MYP images this will be done
automatically. The loading of formats like BMP and JPEG requires a manual input of thesevalues. The results of the analysis depends directly on the parameter settings for image
resolution
Figure 27. Resolution and colour depth
6.7 Magnification coefficient
The magnification coefficient as well has a big influence on the analysis results. The manual
input is required if images are created by a microscope or a digital camera (see chapter 2.3).

6.8 Scan method
Use this menu item to select one o the following analysis method :
* 2D area calculation or
* counting raster intersection points (see chapters 4.1 and 4.5).
6.9 Save image data
If this option is selected, the user will be requested for saving the image date after scanning or
creating. So the original image data can be stored automatically.
7. Extra
7.1 Cut and count
This menu item provides a tool for the manual counting of image objects. The current image
file will be divided into subframes according to the setting given in field Cut after.
