TINA (TINA Is No Acronym) is an open source environment developed to accelerate
the process of image analysis research. TINA provides functionality to assist in all areas of
image analysis including handling of image, image feature and geometrical data; statistical and
numerical analysis of data; GUI development as well as transmission and containment of data.
TINA also provides a range of high-level analysis techniques for both machine vision (3D object
location, 2D object recognition, temporal-stereo depth estimation, etc) and medical image
analysis (MR tissue segmentation, blood flow analysis, etc).
TINA has been under continuous development since 1987 and, during that time, has been funded
by a variety of organisations, including the EU as
part of the IST programme under the
Free Software: Towards Critical Mass call. This call aims to support and accelerate the
development of key open source software within Europe and represents clear recognition by the
EU of the potential of open source software development. Details of this project can be found
on the OSMIA project page.
