Description: BCM3D 2.0 is entirely complementary to the approach utilized in BCM3D 1.0. Instead of training CNNs to perform voxel classification, we trained CNNs to translate 3D fluorescence images into intermediate 3D image representations that are, when combined appropriately, more amenable to conventional mathematical image processing than a single experimental image. Using this approach, improved segmentation results are obtained even for very low SBRs and/or high cell density biofilm images. The improved cell segmentation accuracies in turn enable improved accuracies of tracking individual cells through 3D space and time.
