As part of my study, i require a Image Analysis Software that can quantify the ratio of X colour to Y colour in an image.
An image from the use of SEM needs to be analysed So primarily greyscale colours will be in play.
Dear Sr.
For quantify the amount of each color in a grayscale image, you can use any software that provides an histogram function. Some examples are:
- https://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy-1.13.0/reference/generated/numpy.histogram.html
- https://matplotlib.org/devdocs/api/_as_gen/matplotlib.pyplot.hist.html
- https://docs.opencv.org/2.4/doc/tutorials/imgproc/histograms/histogram_calculation/histogram_calculation.html
- https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/histogram.html
You can find the histogram function definition here
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histogram
Best!
This task is too specific for the software. If you know how the color images(e.g. R,G,B,A channels) are formed, so you can code it in the MATLAB or Python scripts. If you just want to use the software. The imageJ/Fiji can be a good choice and is free and open source.
You can find it in here:

*There is a video on the YOUTUBE for teaching you to measure color difference ratio using ImageJ*, check this out here:

You can use MATLAB. When you read an image in matlab, you will get a matrix of numbers range between 0-1 or 0-255(shades of gray scale in case of 8-bit). So, X and Y both are numbers representation of colors. If you want to quantify the ratio of X color to Y color, then you can use X and Y intensity value as threshold to extract the corresponding areas to these colors and then count the no. of pixels in each region.
In Matlab
X = 100;
Y = 150;
I = imread('cameraman.tif');
length(find(I==X))/length(find(I==Y))
Or
sum(sum(I==X))/sum(sum(I==Y))
