fractal dimension - Opis:
- The BCFD program was develped for the analysis of digitized objects using a box-counting algorithm, which has the largest number of applications among the fractal methods in the geosciences. Counting is performed by scanning of image pixels in boxes of different sizes, and the number of boxes is determined automatically from the image resolution. The program calculates the fractal dimension D of theobjects in the image, along with the coefficient of determination R2. Input files are thus transferred to ubiquitous BMP images, in a 1-bit monochrome for mat. The pro gram out puts the re sults on screen, into a text file and op tion ally also di rectly into MS Ex cel, where the data can be fur ther used in charts or other cal cu la tions. It was tested with three fractal and three Eu clid ean ob jects with known the o ret i cal val - ues, plus three geo log i cal im age data (a nat u ral river net work and two frac ture net works), and gave re sults with very high or per fect the o - ret i cal ac cu racy. Ap pli ca tion of data val ues ob tained is pre sented with sev eral ex am ples. BCFD is writ ten in Vi sual Ba sic 6.0. The source code is freely avail able, and is open for any mod i fi ca tions or in te gra tion with other soft ware pack ages that are pow ered by Vi sual Ba sic for Ap pli ca tions (VBA) or its equiv a lent.
