Reliable chromosome detection in metaphase cell (MC) images can greatly alleviate the workload of cytogeneticists for karyotype analysis and the diagnosis of chromosomal disorders. However, it is still an extremely challenging task due to the complicated characteristics of chromosomes, e.g., dense d...
