Abstract

Malaria is one of the most common diseases caused by mosquitoes and is a great public health problem worldwide. Currently, for malaria diagnosis the standard technique is microscopic examination of a stained blood film. We propose use of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) for the diagnosis of the disease in the red blood cell. For this purpose features / parameters are computed from the data obtained by the digital holographic images of the blood cells and is given as input to ANN which classifies the cell as the infected one or otherwise.
