Abstract:In chromosome analysis, centromere is an essential component. By analyzing centromere, genetic disorder can be identified easily. In this paper, automatic classification and centromere detection in human chromosome image using Band Distance Feature is proposed. Initially the microscopic image of G-band chromosome is preprocessed in order to remove the blobs. Then, the image is segmented using labelling algorithm and the endpoints are calculated. Now, the overlapping chromosomes are removed when the number of e… Show more
