Pattern recognition and classification of two cancer cell lines by diffraction imaging at multiple pixel distances

作者:

Highlights:

• Cross-polarized diffraction images allow label-free cell classification.

• GLCM yields accurate and effective features for automated classification by SVM.

• Consistent accuracies are up to 99.8% on training and up to 99.5% on 3 test sets.

• Effects of image blur on classification have been quantitatively analyzed.

• Results indicate diffraction imaging flow cytometry as a powerful cell assay tool.
