| Abstract | Image processing techniques used to classify human chromosome 16 into two classes of parental homologs are described. The classification is accomplished using DNA probes and detecting intensity differences in homologs of chromosome 16. The classification of homologous chromosomes into maternal and paternal classes is essential to advanced studies of cancer genetics |
