Abstract

This paper describes the process for automating quality evaluation of bio-objects by their raster images. The main purpose of this study is to describe the decision-making algorithm on the viability of the embryo according to its geometric characteristics, such as the thickness of the pellucid zone, the sphericity of the embryo itself, the ratio of the area of the blastomere to the area of perivitelline space. The authors propose to use the methods for linear filtering raster images to obtain numerical characteristics of the quality of bio-objects.
