  • Many automated gating algorithms for flow cytometry data are based on the concept of unimodal cell populations. However, in this article, we show that criteria previously used to make decisions on unimodality cannot adequately distinguish unimodal from bimodal densities. We show that dip and bandwidth tests for unimodality, taken from the statistics literature, can do this with consistent and low error rates. These tests also have the possibility to adjust the significance level to handle the trade-off between failing to detect a second mode and seeing a second mode when there is none. The differences between the dip and bandwidth tests are elucidated using real data from the FlowCAP I challenge, also guidelines for flow cytometry data preprocessing are given.
