Abstract

In this paper, we present an algorithm for the geometrical characterization of Diptera mosquitoes based on morphological characteristics and size relationships within their wings. The software has been written using NI LabVIEW and consists of two main stages. First, Images are manipulated for enhancing the pattern detection. Second, the detected patterns are then analyzed to obtain a set of eleven numeric parameters that describe the sample. The objective is to use this algorithm as the first step towards the development of an automatic classifier of Diptera Mosquitoes genres considering the relevance of this order for the human being.
