In this website are available the codes used to reproduce the analysis and results of the paper describing the pliman R package

pliman (plant image analysis) is designed to analyze plant images, especially related to leaf and grains. The package will help you to:

  • Measure leaf area;
  • Measure disease severity;
  • Count the number of lesions;
  • Obtain the shape of lesions;
  • Produce Standard Area Diagrams;
  • Count objects in an image;
  • Get object features (area, perimeter, radius, circularity, eccentricity, solidity);
  • Get the RGB values for each object in an image;
  • Get the object coordinates;
  • Get the object contours;
  • Get convex hulls;
  • Isolate objects;
  • Plot object measures.

pliman also provides useful functions for operation, transformation, and segmentation of images. Please, visit the Examples page in pliman website for a detailed documentation of each function.
