    Abstract: A method and an apparatus of analyzing an optical image of a scene to determine the spectral intensity of each pixel thereof, comprising: collecting incident light from the scene; passing the light through an interferometer which outputs modulated light corresponding to a predetermined set of linear combinations of the spectral intensity of the light emitted from each pixel; focusing the light outputted from the interferometer on a two dimensional detector array; and processing the output of the detector array to determine the spectral intensity of each pixel thereof; the interferometer being of the low-finesse translating Fabry-Perot type in which the optical path difference is varied to modulate the light by translating an element of the interferometer, such that at each instant each detector sees a different point of the scene and its signal is a linear combination of the spectral content of the light coming from each pixel, and that when the scanner completes one interferometer scan, the scene will have been scanned at all relevant linear combinations of the spectral content.

    Abstract: A method for finding L internal reference vectors for classification of L chromosomes or portions of chromosomes of a cell, the L chromosomes or portions of chromosomes being painted with K different fluorophores or combinations thereof, wherein K basic chromosomes or portions of chromosomes of the L chromosomes or portions of chromosomes are each painted with only one of the K different fluorophores, whereas the other L-K of the L chromosomes or portions of chromosomes are each painted with a different combination of the K different fluorophores, the method comprising the steps of (a) using a multi-band collection device for measuring a first vector for each pixel of each of the L chromosomes or portions of chromosomes; (b) identifying pixels belonging to each of the K basic chromosomes or portions of chromosomes and defining the pixels as basic pixels, so as to obtain K basic classes of basic pixels; (c) using at least one basic pixel from each of the K basic classes for obtaining K basic vectors, the K basic vectors being K internal reference vectors; (d) using the K basic vectors for identifying pixels belonging to the other L-K chromosomes or portions of chromosomes; and (e) using the pixels belonging to the other L-K chromosomes or portions of chromosomes for calculating the other L-K internal reference vectors, thereby finding all of the L internal reference vectors. A method for classification of L chromosomes or portions of chromosomes of a cell similarly painted using the above method for finding L internal reference vectors, and using the L reference vectors for classification of each of the pixels into one of L classification classes. And, images presenting color chromosomes.
