Abstract

The new methodology of chromosome analysis based on eigenanalysis and iterative Fourier synthesis has been developed. The approach is inspired by the analysis developed in electron microscopy of particles, and has been modified to address particular problems of chromosome analysis. Preliminary results on data sets containing 40-80 images for each of the human chromosomes indicate that this methodology provides an improvement of chromosome band resolution and potentially can provide cytogeneticist with some new insights. The proposed procedure is a novel approach in chromosome analysis and represents a significant contribution to quantitative cytogenetics. It opens the possibility of identifying defects in chromosome banding pattern automatically.
