As a thesis project, Im designing a piece counter using matlab. I have t
count how many metal pieces are in a given image. All metal pieces are th
same type, and can be touching each other.
I have tried converting the color image to Black and white, eroding t
stop the pieces from touching, closing the holes in the pieces and the
counting, but its no use.
How about trying to identify a feature of the pieces... I made an image s
you can see what im talking about:
Size is 53Kbytes.

Both links don't work.

You might want to read up on pattern recognition and how it relates to image
processing.

It is hard to give any suggestion without seeing some sample images.
Maybe you can get some ideas from the following page.
