Abstract: The automatic recognition of marine microalgae was achieved by the bionic pattern recognition algorithm via six shape and texture parameters including rectangular degree, energy, entropy, inertia moment, correlation and local stationary degree as the characteristic values of marine microalga recognition characteristics. The microalga specimens collected randomly in marine water were experimentally recognized by the above bionic pattern recognition algorithm according to the microalgae mixed images with the differences in the shape, size or texture of the algae. The results showed that this method accurately identified the microalgae between different kinds or same kind in different states, indicating that the method is effective and feasible in microalgae image recognition.
