ABSTRACT
White blood cells have attracted tremendous interest in recent times due to their promise in providing
innovative new treatments for a great range of currently debilitating diseases. This is due to their potential
ability to regenerate and repair damaged tissue, and hence restore lost body function, in a manner beyond the
body’s usual healing process. White blood cells have potential to divide themselves (through mitosis) to
produce more White Blood Cells. Any disease that results in cellular and tissue destruction can potentially be
treated by WBC cells. Detection of WBC cells has become an important part in modern medicine to diagnose
any disease at its prior onset. But due to their characteristics to change their shape, size and colour at different
intervals of time it becomes quite difficult to detect and segment them, as this research is going on to detect
WBC cells by using the most efficient algorithm among all that have been studied in the literature survey.
Keywords: K-means, CMYK-LAB Model, Gray level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM), Support Vector Machine
(SVM) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN).
I. INTRODUCTION
White Blood Cells play a crucial role in medical
therapy due to their ability to renew themselves
through cell division and to differentiate into a wide
range of specialized cell types. White Blood Cells
motility is a useful index to evaluate the viability of
the White Blood Cells. Recently, the most widely
used method to observe White Blood Cell activity
qualitatively is visual inspection through a microscope.
However manually performing quantitative
assessments of cell behavior is time consuming and
prone to human error. A computer aided analysis tool
is thus required for an effective analysis of White
Blood Cells.
Moreover detection and segmentation of White Blood
Cells is difficult as White Blood Cells have special
characteristics to change their shape size and color at
different intervals of time.
