Results

During an analysis run ImageC measures a couple of metrics of each detected object. All the measured data are stored in an in memory SQL database (internally we are using DuckDB). Once the analysis is finished the collected data can be displayed within the ImageC results viewer and either be exported to XLSX or R afterwards.

However, as the number of data generated can be very large, ImageC allows to choose which data to display in the result view. One way to specify the columns to show is using the Results tab before starting the analysis.

These settings are saved with the project and can be used to define a preset of the desired output data. When the result file is opened after the run, ImageC displays the result columns as specified there.

Even if a column is not specified, the metric is still measured and can be added at any time, even after the analysis has been completed.

Measurements and Statistics

A measurement in the context of ImageC is a metrics calculated during the analysis for an object. The statistics is applied to the selected measurement. The following table gives an overview of the valid combinations of measurements and statistics which are available.
