FIATAS Description

A free image annotation tool for your Mac FIATAS is a free and easy to use annotation tool that has been developed with the idea that the editor/annotators are presented with the set of images associated with a single assay to be annotated, and an optimized anatomy ontology so the expert user can rapidly assign annotations to a given image set. Each image in the set can be independently annotated in terms of tissues/structures that show expression and the nature, strength and patterning of that expression. Comments can be added to any annotation as well as a general comment on the whole set.Once you have selected and loaded an "annotation job" then you should see an image on the left-hand side and a tree-view on a selected set of anatomical components on the right-hand side. You can adjust the image view using the sliders (rolling thenwheel on the mouse) and zoom control to get up 3X magnification of the original image data. The view position can be adjusted by the edge sliders or by simply dragging the image. The "Backward", "Forward" and choice-box at the bottom of the image view allow selection of other images associated with this assay. Note the whole display can be re-sized and the proportion allocated to the image adjusted using the sliding vertical divider. The tree view displays the currently selected view, in this case there are three options "simple", "organ sys" and "full. These are anatomy trees which are sub-sets of the full TS23 ontology from Emap. They are configurable and these are merely representative. An important task at the meeting in July is to define the initial annexation tree and to work out the process by which the selection is optimized and refined. To annotate and image then click the corresponding tissue and select from the popup menus the expression strength and type (graded, homogeneous etc) the strength will be indicated as a colored text. You can also add noted to each annotation. Note in each case the annotation is to a specific tissue with a unique identifier. It does not matter which tree is used to annotate "sensory organ" under the "simple" tree is the same as "sensory organ" under the "organ sys" tree, Off course is the same as "sensory organ" under the "full" tree. You can see this by annotating in one tree and then viewing the other - it should have been set to the same co lour and have the same notes (try it). Fiatas will remember the annotation steps, this allows you "Undo and "Redo" the previous steps. Requirements: · Java 1.5 or later
