    摘要: Methods, systems and computer readable media for automatically feature extracting array images in batch mode. At least two images to be feature extracted are loaded into a batch project, and the system automatically and sequentially feature extracts the images in the batch project. At least one of the images may be feature extracted based upon a different grid template or protocol than at least one other of the images. Methods, systems and computer readable media are provided to automatically feature extract a single array image having an identifier indicating that it is a multipack, multiple array image. A system provided for feature extracting array images in batch mode includes a user interface with a feature enabling a user to select images to be loaded into a batch project; and based upon the loaded images in the batch project, the system may automatically assign a grid template to each image loaded into the batch project. Further, the system may automatically assign a protocol to each image loaded into the batch project.

    摘要: Methods, systems and computer readable media for facilitating analysis of feature extraction outputs across multiple extractions. A feature extraction output of an extraction resulting from feature extraction of an array is inputted, and global statistics and array processing parameters are extracted from the feature extraction output. A table/file is populated with the extracted global statistics and array processing parameters of the extraction. The inputting, extracting and populating steps are repeated for at least one additional feature extraction output of another extraction, so that the table/file includes global statistics that can be readily cross-compared over multiple extractions with reference to a single table or file. Methods, systems and computer readable media are provided for setting threshold values for metrics that global statistics are provided for. An evaluation metric may be set by a user, based upon the threshold values set for the metrics. A metric set including the metrics and optionally one or more thresholds and optionally an evaluation metric may be stored and/or applied to additional global statistics for those metrics to evaluate the quality of one or more extractions. A set of reports are provided for facilitating analysis of feature extraction outputs across multiple extractions. A diagnostic tool is provided for identifying and diagnosing potential problems in feature extraction outputs.

    摘要: A method and system for determining a biopolymer array substrate thickness dependent optimal focus distance for scanning a molecular array by a molecular array scanner are provided. A reference substrate is automatically scanned at successively greater distances of the stage from a light gathering medium, such as an optical fiber, or z-positions, to produce data providing a functional relationship between z-position and measured signal intensities. The data is then processed by an array substrate thickness dependent focus-finding routine that selects an optimal focus-distance for data scans which is optimized for the thickness of the reference substrate. Also provided are methods of determining the thickness of a biopolymer array substrate using a position sensitive device (PSD) component of a biopolymer array scanner. Further methods include determining the thickness of said biopolymeric array and automatically selecting an optimal focus distance using the determined thickness and a calibration function on thickness versus optimal focus distance. The subject invention finds use in a variety of different applications, including both genomic and proteomic applications.

    摘要: An automated method and system for determining an optimal focus distance for scanning a molecular array by a molecular array scanner. Blocks of rows of a reference array are automatically scanned at successively greater distances of the stage from a light gathering medium, such as an optical fiber, or z-positions, to produce data providing a functional relationship between z-position and measured signal intensities. The data is then processed by a peak-height-based, or window-based, focus-finding routine that selects an optimal focus-distance for data scans.
