Description

Xinyang Li and co-authors present a 2023 paper on cleaning noise from fluorescence microscope images without any clean examples to learn from. Fluorescence pictures are grainy by nature, and the noise hides fine biology. Their method, SRDTrans, exploits the fact that nearby pixels in an image repeat much of the same signal.

A sampling trick pulls paired patches from neighboring spots to train on, removing the need for fast repeat imaging. A light transformer design then reads both space and time patterns at low cost. The cleaned images kept fine detail without the waxy smoothing that plagues denoisers. Tests on single-molecule tracking and two-photon brain imaging reached top scores. The method assumes nothing about the sample, so it ports to many imaging styles.
