Abstract:
Objective To design an image pre-processing system of low-density gene chips based on MATLAB, which can process the colored images by cy3 and cy5 fluorescence staining of low-density chips obtained by the array scanning system. It can filter out noise, enhance the contrast gradient of image, improve the quality of image, and implement the functions of image segmentation, edge detection and region identification. Methods The median filter method of the wavelet was used to implement the function of image denoising and improve the image quality. Edge detection was accomplished by wavelet, combining with edge operators. Image segmentation was developed by genetic algorithms. Results It could reduce the effect of spot, noise and other factors, improve the quality of image, and detect the periphery of image better and the region of sampling point more precisely. It can also effectively separate the valuable weak signal points and background or noise with the system. Conclusion The system can accomplish the functions of image pre-processing of low-density gene chips, and the adopted methods are feasible. It can provide relative accurate data information for future analysis.
