• Authors: Gergely Szabó, Paolo Bonaiuti, Andrea Ciliberto, András Horváth,
• Abstract summary: We develop a new deep-learning based tracking method that relies solely on the assumption that cells can be tracked based on theirtemporal neighborhood. The proposed method has the additional benefit that the motion patterns of the cells can be learned completely by the predictor without any prior assumptions.

• Abstract: The accurate tracking of live cells using video microscopy recordings remains a challenging task for popular state-of-the-art image processing based object tracking methods. In recent years, several existing and new applications have attempted to integrate deep-learning based frameworks for this task, but most of them still heavily rely on consecutive frame based tracking embedded in their architecture or other premises that hinder generalized learning. To address this issue, we aimed to develop a new deep-learning based tracking method that relies solely on the assumption that cells can be tracked based on their spatio-temporal neighborhood, without restricting it to consecutive frames. The proposed method has the additional benefit that the motion patterns of the cells can be learned completely by the predictor without any prior assumptions, and it has the potential to handle a large number of video frames with heavy artifacts. The efficacy of the proposed method is demonstrated through biologically motivated validation strategies and compared against multiple state-of-the-art cell tracking methods.

• Cell as Point: One-Stage Framework for Efficient Cell Tracking [54.19259129722988]
  This paper proposes the novel end-to-end CAP framework to achieve efficient and stable cell tracking in one stage. CAP abandons detection or segmentation stages and simplifies the process by exploiting the correlation among the trajectories of cell points to track cells jointly. Cap demonstrates strong cell tracking performance while also being 10 to 55 times more efficient than existing methods.

  This work proposes a new approach based on the classical tracking-by-detection paradigm. It approximates the cell shapes as oriented ellipses and then uses generic-purpose oriented object detectors to identify the cells in each frame. Our results show that our method can achieve detection and tracking results competitively with state-of-the-art techniques.

  This paper presents a novel approach that views each tracklet as a continuous stream. At each timestamp, only the current frame is fed into the network to interact with multi-frame historical features stored in a memory bank. To enhance the utilization of multi-frame features for robust tracking, a contrastive sequence enhancement strategy is proposed.
