The images are greyscale images of crystals viewed under
a microscope. This is an attempt to classify the quality
of food by dissolving some salt in milk and evaporating
the liquid. Other components are removed too until the
salt crystals are left over.

There is little junk floating around when the experiment
is correctly done.

The background is uniform in a single picture but varies
from picture to picture. The threshold has to be adjusted
for each picture, but that seems to be manageable.

A simple threshold for the entire image should be sufficient.

There is only one image per sample of the fluid under test.

One of the major problems is that the crystals have a
varying orientation from picture to picture. Other
properties such a shape, size and clustering vary little
within one class. So variations of shape, size and
clusterings should be detected and grouped into various
classes.
