RESUMO

This research work had the objective of contributing to the development of a methodology applicable to biological tissues vitality analysis by means of a stochastic model. The conceived and tested model is able to interpret as well as to quantify the biospeckle images generated on living tissues. The biospeckle or dynamic speckle phenomenon is generated from the interaction of a coherent light with living tissues or with body surface exhibiting certain kinds of activities. In other words, the biospeckle phenomenon is observed when interfering patterns generated by the incidence of coherent light on a surface exhibiting some kind of dynamic or biological activities change at certain rate. Biological tissues, as well as particles in suspension exhibit dynamic activities, similar to brownian motion, acting as a dynamic diffraction grid to the coherent light. By capturing and processing biospeckle images it is possible to differentiate levels of biological or dynamic activities in the body under study. Dynamic speckle image analysis presents a typical stochastic behavior, suggesting a probabilistic statistical study of image behavior, as brownian motion, entropy or other kind of model associated to random phenomenon. Toward that sense, seed viability analysis, vegetative tissue senescence, as well as brownian motion simulation tests had been carried out. Results indicate that STS (Spatial Temporal Speckle) images show random behavior, impeding quantitative analysis. In opposition, MOC (Matrix Occurrence) images or occurrence matrix, where the chaos effect is minimized, are susceptible to quantifying analysis, similarly to the ?moment of inertia? method. Key words: Image, seed, senescence
