Abstract

The Image analysis of fibers is a key technique in the field of materials research and industrial engineering. The purpose of this work is to present a solution for fiber image analysis using MATLAB, a high-performance software environment for numerical computations and data visualization. This work focused on the detection, segmentation, and quantification of fibers in microscopic images. Initially, image preprocessing techniques such as filtering and adaptive thresholding were applied to enhance contrast and reduce noise. Subsequent steps utilized edge detection algorithms, like the Canny detector, and fiber segmentation, for instance using Watershed transformation. Quantification of the fibers was carried out by extracting geometric and textural features, such as length, diameter, orientation, and energy. These properties provide important information about the structure and characteristics of the fibers. The results of the implementation show high accuracy in detecting and segmenting the central points of fibers and provide important information for further material analysis. This work presents an efficient and robust solution for fiber image analysis using MATLAB, which can be applied in various areas, such as the textile industry, biomedical research, or materials engineering. This approach opens new possibilities for the automation of fiber analysis and accelerates the processes of research and development of materials. The created work contributes to a better understanding of the structure and properties of fibers and enhances the potential of their use in a wide range of applications.
