Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and a system for determining the positions of a plurality of objects in a digital image by discriminating true positive positions of the plurality of objects from false positive candidate positions of the plurality of objects. In particular, the invention relates to a method for determining the positions of a plurality of objects in a digital image by discriminating true positive positions of the plurality of objects from false positive candidate positions of the plurality of objects, the plurality of objects being configured to receive molecules comprising genetic information.

Abstract: System and method for distinguishing at least one first object from at least one second object in a plurality of digital images is provided. The at least one first object having received at least one molecule comprising genetic information, the at least one second object not having received a molecule comprising genetic information. The at least one molecule is configured to receive one of a plurality of fluorescent compounds in each of a plurality of cycles. The digital images being determined by an optical imaging system during emission of electromagnetic radiation by the fluorescent compounds, wherein the plurality of digital images comprises a plurality of series of images, each image of a series referring to the emission spectrum of a respective fluorescent compound and wherein the series of images is repeatedly taken for each of the plurality of cycles.
