Algorithms to detect loa loa in blood videos: A repo for the 2026 paper "Automated detection of Loa loa: a field trial in Cameroon" # loaDetectionAlgorithms **Algorithms to detect *Loa loa* in blood videos** This repo contains code for the algorithms described in Djune-Yemeli et al, "Automated detection of Loa loa: a field trial in Cameroon", 2026. link to paper To run the code: 1. Python libraries (versions used are in parentheses): * Python (3.13.9) * opencv (4.12.0) * matplotlib (3.10.6) * scikit-image (0.25.2) * scipy (1.16.3) 2. Clone this project locally (or copy the scripts to a local folder). 3. You will need access to loa videos (an open access dataset is expected in June 2026) 4. Then: * Select a path to a session folder with 7 videos at line 21 * Update paths in 'wormDetectorProcessOneSession.py' at lines 21 - 27 * Confirm the video type at line 40. * Run 'wormDetectorProcessOneSession.py'
