Abstract

To analyze images in various fields of science and technology, it is often necessary to count observed objects and determine their parameters. This can be quite labor-intensive and time-consuming. This article presents DLgram, a universal, user-friendly cloud service that is developed for this purpose. It is based on deep learning technologies and does not require programming skills. The user labels several objects in the image and uploads it to the cloud where the neural network is trained to recognize the objects being studied. The user receives recognition results which, if necessary, can be corrected, errors removed, or missing objects added. In addition, it is possible to carry out mathematical processing of the data obtained to get information about the sizes, areas, and coordinates of the observed objects. The article describes the service features and discusses examples of its application. The DLgram service allows to reduce significantly the time spent on quantitative image analysis, reduce subjective factor influence, and increase the accuracy of analysis.
