| Description | A recently published method for 3D reconstruction of interphase chromosomes based on the fast marching method was extended. A kind of anisotropic diffusion filtering, namely balanced forward-backward diffusion filtering, was added to the preprocessing phase of the algorithm. The method for finding an optimal arrival time was also modified. The anisotropic diffusion filtering can suppress inhomogeneities in chromosome staining while edges in images are preserved. This leads to better performance for chromosomes that are close to each other. |
