Requires Matlab Runtime Environment or Matlab. Source code (m-files) are downloaded. Software availability: AVeMap was developed under MATLAB (MathWorks). It is available as an executable, multiplatform program, together with source codes and documentation here, and the source code is also available as Supplementary Software. For practical reasons, this executable version, which does not require MATLAB, runs on a single processor. For users who want to customize the software and/or need the power of parallel computing, an installation of MATLAB with its 'parallel' and 'image processing' toolboxes is needed. Note that, even with the executable version, the velocity fields are stored for further analysis. The add-on AVeMap+ uses these AVeMap-computed velocity fields to generate heat map tables. It is available with the same link.

The Leaf Infection Tools allow to measure the area of leaves, of two stainings in different channels and of the overlap region of the two stainings.

Oufti (previously named MicrobeTracker) is a MATLAB application / suite of tools for analysing fluorescent spots inside microbes. MicrobeTracker can identify cell outlines and fluorescent foci, and generate plots and statistics based on positions and intensity (kymographs, histograms etc.) The MATLAB code is easy to modify and extend to add additional plots and statistics: see e.g. Lesterlin et al. (2014).

The Outfi Forum is quite active.

Analyzing Ca2+ sparks

ImageJ plugin to detect and measure Ca2+ sparks in linescan images, described in Picht et. al. (2007). The algorithm is based on that described by Cheng et al. (1999). Care should be taken to ensure that detections belong to 'true' events, as without any additional background subtraction steps the algorithm is not appropriate for images in which the baseline fluorescence varies substantially.

This workflow classifies objects based on object-level features (e.g. intensity based, morphology based, etc) and user annotations. It needs segmentation images besides the raw image data. Segmentation images can be obtained from ilastik pixel classification, or binary segmentation images from other tools. Within the object classification, one can prefilter objects through thresholds (on pixel probability image) or object sizes (on segmentation image). Outputs are predicted classification label images. Selected features can also be exported. Advanced users also have possibilities to add customized (object) features for classification in a simple plugin fashion through python scripts.
