    A new data-smoothing filter enhances bivariate flow cytometry (FCM) histogram accuracy by using adjacent data and local density. This method reduces noise and minimizes errors in FCM analysis.

    Area of Science:

    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Computational Biology
    • Data Science

    Background:

    • Bivariate flow cytometry (FCM) histograms often suffer from statistical fluctuations due to low data counts.
    • Accurate interpretation of FCM data is crucial for various biological and medical applications.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a novel data-smoothing filter to improve the accuracy of bivariate FCM histograms.
    • To reduce statistical noise and minimize systematic errors in FCM data analysis.

    Main Methods:

    • Developed a space-variant smoothing filter utilizing adjacent data, point spread function (PSF), and local count density.
    • Assumed FCM data's PSF as 2D Gaussian functions and adjusted smoothing kernels based on local count density.
    • Implemented a method to match smoothing kernel size to local data reliability.

    Main Results:

    • The filter effectively reduces statistical fluctuations in bivariate FCM histograms, especially at low count densities.
    • Smoothed histograms show improved visual interpretability due to reduced high-frequency spatial noise.
    • The algorithm minimizes systematic errors by making more efficient use of smaller samples.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed smoothing filter significantly enhances the accuracy and interpretability of bivariate FCM data.
    • This approach offers a robust solution for managing noise and errors in flow cytometry analysis.
    • The method has the potential to improve the reliability of scientific findings derived from FCM experiments.
