Deep Learning-Based Instance Segmentation of Neural Progenitor Cell Nuclei in Fluorescence Microscopy Images

In this work, a Deep Learning-based machine vision model was devel- oped for the detection, segmentation and counting of Neural Progenitor Cell nuclei from fluorescence microscopy images. The cells were obtained from adult mice and cultivated in vitro, with cellular nuclei labeled using DAPI...

The results obtained with the Resnet-50 backbone show that there is an effectiveness of 98.6% for between the specialist count and model-predicted count, in addition to having an mAP50 of 98.0%. This approach has the potential to significantly reduce the time and effort required to analyze large image sets, which is especially useful in studies that require repetitive and detailed cellular analysis.
