Abstract
A method for matching a three-dimensional first image of at least one discrete entity with a three-dimensional second image of the at least one discrete entity is provided. The at least one discrete entity includes a biological sample and a plurality of constituent parts of a marker. The method includes: generating a first representation of the marker from the first image; generating a second representation of the marker from the second image; and based upon the representations matching, matching the first image with the second image; or based upon the representations not matching, rejecting the match. Generating the representations includes determining vectors from at least one reference item to at least some of the constituent parts of the marker, determining for the vectors at least one value of a property, and generating the representations of the marker based on a frequency of the at least one value of the property.
