Figure 10From: Microarray image analysis: background estimation using quantile and morphological filtersIllustration of the variability of the estimates. Background estimates Fixed35 (thick line), γ60 × 60,{0.08} ζb,7(thick dashed line), and GenePix Pro median (thin line) in the red channel along a horizontal line on Slide 1 (spot row 40). The large variability of the GenePix Pro estimate is mainly due to the adaptive size of the background mask.Back to article page
