Microarray image enhancement by denoising using stationary wavelet transform.
Microarray imaging is considered an important tool for large scale analysis of gene expression. The accuracy of the gene expression depends on the experiment itself and further image processing. It's well known that the noises introduced during the experiment will greatly affect the accuracy of the gene expression. How to eliminate the effect of the noise constitutes a challenging problem in microarray analysis. Traditionally, statistical methods are used to estimate the noises while the microarray images are being processed. In this paper, we present a new approach to deal with the noise inherent in the microarray image processing procedure. That is, to denoise the image noises before further image processing using stationary wavelet transform (SWT). The time invariant characteristic of SWT is particularly useful in image denoising. The testing result on sample microarray images has shown an enhanced image quality. The results also show that it has a superior performance than conventional discrete wavelet transform and widely used adaptive Wiener filter in this procedure.

Application of wavelet modulus maxima in microarray spots recognition.
This paper presents a novel approach to recognize the microarray image spots. The approach is based on the detection of wavelet modulus maxima in the microarray images. The detected maxima is actually the contour of the spots and thus the spots are recognized precisely. Then, the intensities within the contour of the spots can be obtained with low error rate. The test results on example image show this is an effective approach, especially for those spots with low intensities.
