Identifying the Blood cell types

I have currently developed a method to identify the blood cells using Invariant Moments.

To find the Invariant moments first it has to calculate the 3rd order Central moments. Then it is necessary to calculate the Normalized Central Moments. By using the Normalized central moments it is able calculate the Invariant Moments.

Moment Invariants are useful features in pattern recognition problems. Using N moments, for the instance the image can be represented as a point in a N-dimensional vector space.

For the moment I have used only the first Invariant Moment to identify the blood cell types. And it was little bit succeed. And now I am considering with all seven moments to identify the cell types. Mean while I am also trying to get the typical values of the areas of the blood cells and try to identify the blood cell types using those typical values.

Code related to this is updated in Google Group related to the LOHITHA.
