Abstract:
The chromosome automatic analysis system may help physicians diagnose cancers and other genetic disorders at an early stage. A computer-assisted system usually includes a series of processing steps,such as image enhancement,chromosome segmentation,feature extraction and chromosome classification. However,developing such an automated system is quite a challenging and difficult task. A number of different algorithms have been applied during the research of these systems,and encouraging results have been achieved. This paper introduced the development of the chromosome automatic analysis systems,and summarized various algorithms used in these systems. Due to limitation of some factors,further research is needed to improve the efficiency and the accuracy of these systems. The limited factors are analyzed in this paper and the development tendency is predicted.
