Title:
METHOD, APPARATUS, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR COMPRESSION AND DECOMPRESSION OF A GENE SEQUENCING IMAGE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2009/138938
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A method for compression and/or decompression of bio-medical images such as DNA sequencing images is provided. The method comprises regeneration of a complete image using multiple distribution functions generated on the fly. The compression ratio achieved is in the order of 10 to 20 times, and is near lossless with respect to the clinically relevant information; which makes it well suited for these DNA sequencing images.
