Abstract

The problem of extracting spots from DNA microarrays is a problem of considerable scientific and economic utility. In this paper we introduce a new approach based on a scale-space analysis of the image. We augment this with a machine learning system that guides an operator by classifying spots into those that require further attention and those that are already segmented correctly. We compare conventional k-nearest neighbor techniques with generalized linear models and multilayer perceptrons using confidence intervals and McNemar's test.
