Automatic Generation of Expert-Level Neuron Segmentation Masks from Fluorescence Microscopy Images for Non-Invasive Deep Learning Analysis of Phase-Contrast Images
Background&Objective Accurate segmentation of neurons in microscopy images of neuronal cultures is crucial for research on neurodegenerative diseases and neurotoxicity. Manual annotation of such images is time-consuming, subjective, and inconsistent across experts. Deep learning (DL) models offer an effective alternati...
