Quantitative morphological data of six classes of immature and mature cells of the neutrophil series of the bone marrow of normal persons were used for statistical classification experiments (myeloblasts, promyelocytes, myelocytes, metamyelocytes, bands and segments). On each cell, parameters were measured directly from the image or calculated from the shape of the density histogram or the counting densitogram using a Texture Analysis System (E. Leitz, Wetzlar, Germany). The parameters were analyzed with the interactive statistical pattern recognition system ISPAHAN. One half of the data were used as a learning set and the other half as the test set. The parameters were compared according to their performance in discrimination between the classes, alone and in combinations. Parameters not contributing to an improvement of the discrimination were disregarded. Eleven parameters were selected and used for classification by two different methods: a stepwise and a "one-shot" method. Stepwise classification resulted in a 79% correct classification rate. Most errors occurred between cell classes in neighboring stages of maturation. In 96% of all cases the computer classification was either in accordance with that of the technician or with a cell class of a neighboring maturation stage. One step classification by the computer was in agreement with the technicians in 82% of the cases. For 98% of the cells the computer classification was either in accordance with that of the technician or with a cell class of a neighboring maturation stage. The data set was collected by two technicians, operating independently. Differences in their interpretation of the maturation stage were found by comparing the performance of classifiers based on both cell samples. Since the images of the cells were not available for reexamination, the causes of disagreement in classification between the technicians and between computer and technicians could not be evaluated.
