Image Analysis

[aryadev]

Dear All,
I want to analyse a Tif Image pixel by pixel. But using the ImageIo available in Java I am not able to create a BufferedImage for the Tiff Image so that I can find the currespoding pixel array. So I converted the tif image to bmp/png and then I was able to find the pixel array. Now my problem is my entire code takes 8 seconds to complete in a Windows 2003 server m/c and 14 sec in a windows xp desktop m/c. The double for loop that I use to generate the double dimensional pixel array is taking 2 sec and the analysis loop (that takes the pixelarray elements one by one) is taking the same time . The rest of the code takes 4sec .

I need to optimize the code so that its total execution time should not exceed 2sec. Is this just a matter of code optimisation or can I have a better idea for analysing a Tiff Image other than examining it pixel by pixel?

Any help is highly appreciated.

Regards,
Arya.

What is the "analysis loop"? What kind of processing are you doing in that loop??

Image I/O has a package for working with Tiff.

Many image processing routines can be done with the existing library. Tell us what you are trying to achieve rather than requesting an answer to a solution you've already made your mind up to implement.
