The proliferation and dissemination of antimicrobial-resistant bacteria is an increasingly
global challenge and is attributed mainly to the excessive or improper use of antibiotics …

Exemplar based techniques such as affinity propagation represent data in terms of typical
exemplars. This has two benefits:(i) the resulting models are directly interpretable by …

Despite the advancement of recent molecular technologies, culturing is still considered the
gold standard for microbial sample analysis. Here we review three different bacterial colony …

This paper presents a computer-based method for recognizing digital images of bacterial
cells. It covers automatic recognition of twenty genera and species of bacteria chosen by the …

The potential use of a novel multichannel optical system towards fast and non-destructive
bacteria identification and its application for environmental bacteria characterisation on the …

It is possible to identify bacteria species basing on their diffraction patterns followed by
statistical analysis. The new approach exploits two steps: optimization of the recording …

The microorganisms identification can be achieved by light diffraction phenomenon leading
to the generation of unique optical signatures. This paper is focused on an alternative …

The Medium (Petri dish, media, agar plate, petri culture, agar culture) are environments that
