Analyzing effect of increasing Gal4

Images with high variability have high overall average expression rate in MGa2x, images with more uniform expression have lower levels.  The reverse is true for MGa1x. MGa1x

Image processing

Working on analysis for MGa1x vs 2x. Shown left, mRNA densities for MGa2x.  Internal control for MGa2x achieved by measuring expression.     With Mga 1x, compare ush(?) intronic probe as a measure of background.  Only 0-5 dots found per … Continue reading

Image processing

Fixing automatic dot counting code: z-sections: small number of sections gives correct assignment.  Dots that extend into upper layers (line extends to the left) are not tracked, as they are marked when they first entered those layers.  Dots that extend … Continue reading

optimizing image processing coding

Improving Efficiency and Speed of dot finding code.  (with upwards or 0.3 million dots segmented in a single stack, some substantial changes are necessary). Profiler on optimizing_dotfinding caught bug: needed to increase maxdots.  Now set automatically. Slow steps in CheckDotUpDown: … Continue reading
