Hierarchical Mergence Approach to Cell Detection in Phase Contrast Microscopy Images

Phase contrast microscope is one of the most universally used instruments to observe long-term cell movements in different solutions. Most of classic segmentation methods consider a homogeneous patch as an object, while the recorded cell images have rich details and a lot of small inhomogeneous patc...
