Automatic Gridding Method for Microarray Images
A cDNA microarray is a powerful tool in biotechnology providing useful information in analyzing thousands of gene expressions simultaneously. The analysis of microarray images allows the identification of gene expressions to draw biological conclusions for applications ranging from genetic profiling to diagnosis of cancer. The DNA microarray image analysis includes three tasks: gridding, segmen...
متن کاملAn automated method for gridding and clustering-based segmentation of cDNA microarray images
Microarrays are widely used to quantify gene expression levels. Microarray image analysis is one of the tools, which are necessary when dealing with vast amounts of biological data. In this work we propose a new method for the automated analysis of microarray images. The proposed method consists of two stages: gridding and segmentation. Initially, the microarray images are preprocessed using te...
متن کاملEfficient Gridding of Real Microarray Images
DNA microarrays technology is very recent and rapidly evolving. At present, it is widely used in the analysis of gene expression. The interpretation of the data crucially depends on the accuracy of the localization of the circular spots, which are placed in rectangular grids. The problem is complicated by the presence of many local deformations of the grid, by the high variability in luminance ...
متن کاملAutomatic microarray gridding by mathematical morphology
DNA chips (i.e., microarrays) biotechnology [2,3] is a hybridization (i.e., matching of pairs of DNA) based process that makes possible to quantify the relative abundance of mRNA from two distinct samples by analyzing their fluorescence signals. This technique requires robotic placement (i.e., spotting) of thousands of cDNAs (i.e., complementary DNA) in an array format on glass microscope slide...
متن کاملUnsupervised SVM-based gridding for DNA microarray images
This paper presents a novel method for unsupervised DNA microarray gridding based on support vector machines (SVMs). Each spot is a small region on the microarray surface where chains of known DNA sequences are attached. The goal of microarray gridding is the separation of the spots into distinct cells. The positions of the spots on a DNA microarray image are first detected using image analysis...
