Oil Particle Analysis Using Machine Learning And Holography Imaging, Daniel Cruz

Open Access Theses & Dissertations

Holographic cameras show potential as a sensor to monitor oil spills. Holographic cameras record the light interference from particles in a volume of space, producing an image called a hologram. Processing these holograms is known as hologram reconstruction. It produces a representation of particles located in three-dimensional space. These cameras can record precise shapes and sizes of particles in a volume of water. However, it is very time-consuming and resource-intensive to process the images. Most algorithms that perform particle analysis require the hologram reconstruction step. The well-documented hybrid method is one such algorithm. Machine learning is one possible technique that …
