Saved Data
What data are saved:
- Raw data
- Regions of Interest (RoI) saved as a rectangle, image coordinates
How is it saved:
- All the above are saved in a single .mat file. In one .mat file there will be several data sets. Each data set will have several images. The first N images are the "background" (beamless) images, where N is a user given parameter in the GUI. The succeeding images are the raw beam (or laser) images. The raw data of each image is always stored; additionally a Region of Interest may be stored for each image, plus its validty flag. By default the RoI is "empty" meaning display teh whole image. By default the validity flag is true. The vaidity flag is set by an algorithm during processing, but it can be overriden by the user in the GUI.
- The last image processing settings used in each appplication, during analysis, are also saved. This will be on three levels; global (from image acquisition), per data set (from the image browser), per image (from image analsyis).
Filenames
Suggestion:
$MATLABDATAFILES/profileImages/profImg_<timestamp>.mat
Clarifications
- What analysis parameters, if any, should be saved?
