Registration method based on maximization of mutual information of voxel intensities is one of the most popular methods for 3-D multi-modality medical image registration. Generally, the optimization process is easily trapped in local maximum, resulting in wrong registration results. In order to find the correct optimum, a new multi-resolution approach for brain image registration based on normalized mutual information is proposed. In this method, to eliminate the effect of local optima, multi-scale wavelet transformation is adopted to extract the image edge features. Then the feature images are registered, and the result at this level is taken as the initial estimate for the registration of the original images. Three-dimensional volumes are used to test the algorithm. Experimental results show that the registration strategy proposed is a robust and efficient method which can reach sub-voxel accuracy and improve the optimization speed.展开更多

Microsatellite markers are very suitable for assessing genetic diversity. Four microsatellite-enriched libraries of half smooth tongue sole (Cynoglossus semilaevis) were constructed,from which 57 polymorphic microsatellites were isolated and characterized.The polymorphism of these microsatellites was assessed by genotyping in 30 individual fish.The number of alleles ranged from 2 to 11, with an average of 4.614 alleles per locus.The values of observed and expected heterozygosities ranged from 0.1000 to 1.0000 and from 0.0966 to 0.8847 respectively. Polymorphism information content (PIC) ranged from 0.0905 to 0.862.These markers would be useful for population structure assessment,genetic linkage map construction and parentage analysis for this species.展开更多
