Thanks, Craig.

Ideally, I would like to automatically fit a two gaussian to each blob, and 
integrate it to get the total relative contents of the blobs, which I could 
then connect back with the known amount of standards added.  For starters I was 
able to read in the file using PDL::IO::Image (awesome) and rimage. I tried 
using PDL::IO::Pic rim, but that spit out an error for some reason.

I sliced each column of the image and printed out the minimum value of the 
image unit (RGB value? sorry, I’m not an expert in manipulating images!).  This 
spit out something that looked somewhat reasonable when graphed.  Thus, I 
should be able to grab out the index of the minimum paired with a column to fit 
a the gaussian, but it there an easier way to do this?

I’m still a PDL newbie, so even slicing is not trivial for me at this point… 
bah!

below is a copy paste from an IPerl Notebook (I hope it translates!).


In [31]:

use Modern::Perl;
use PDL;
use PDL::IO::Image;
In [32]:

my $pdl1 = rimage('Desktop/TLC_arg.jpg');
print $pdl1->info;
Out[32]:
PDL: Byte D [2625,116,3]
1
In [37]:

foreach my $ic (0 .. 2624){
    my $col = min($pdl1->slice("$ic"));
    print $col . "\n";
}
