Learning tools for blood dell segmentation and extraction techniques

Blood cell segmentation and identification is vital in the study of blood as a health indicator. A complete blood count is used to determine the state of a person’s health based on the contents of the blood in particular the white blood cells and the red blood cells. The main problem arises when mas...
