The PaCeQuant Plugin and Corresponding Tools
The PaCeQuant plugin for fully automatic cell segmentation and shape feature extraction is part of MiToBo since release 1.8.6.
More details about the plugin and its usage can be found on the PaCeQuant's website.
Main publication:
- B. Möller, Y. Poeschl, R. Plötner, and K. Bürstenbinder,
PaCeQuant: A Tool for High-Throughput Quantification of Pavement Cell Shape Characteristics.
Plant Physiology, 175(1), September 2017.
Over the time the main plugin has been supplemented with several complementary tools to ease cell shape analysis and feature visualization:
- the FeatureColorMapper plugin for creating heatmap visualizations of cell features
- the LabelImageEditor for handy manual post-processing of segmentation results
- the R package PaCeQuantAna for statistical analysis of feature data and creation of publication-ready plots of feature distributions and statistical analysis results
