Colocalization Colormap –an ImageJ Plugin for the Quantification and Visualization of Colocalized Signals

This ImageJ plugin implements the Jaskolski's algorithm (Jaskolski et al. 2005). It creates a pseudo-color map of correlations between pairs of corresponding pixels in two original input images. With it one can quantitativly visualize colocalization.

This plugin is able to stitch an arbitrary collection or grid of images, it does not matter if it is 2d, 3d, 4d or 5d images as long as all images are of the same type. In contrast to the Pairwise Stitching of two images, this plugins will load (and potentially save) the images from/to harddisc.

This toolkit extracts Spherical Textures: Angular projections of 2D or 3D image objects with subsequent spherical harmonics analysis.

The Allen Mouse Brain Common Coordinate Framework (CCF) is a 3D reference atlas for the mouse brain which can be used to analyze, visualize, and integrate multimodal and multiscale datasets in 3D. The spatial template is constructed as a population average of 1,675 young adult mouse brains imaged using serial two photon tomography. 

Trace ridges combines filtering, Watershed transforms, Edge detection and mathematical morphology to trace ridges in an image with fibre-like structures. 
Publication provides objective comparison of six existing methodologies (Edge detection, CT Fire, Scale Space, Twombli, U-Net and Graph Based).

Quote:

The Pairwise Stitching first queries for two input images that you intend to stitch. They can contain rectangular ROIs which limit the search to those areas, however, the full images will be stitched together. Once you selected the input images it will show the actual dialog for the Pairwise Stitching.

3DeeCellTracker is a deep-learning based pipeline for tracking cells in 3D time-lapse images of deforming/moving organs.

The installation comprises a set of Jupyter notebooks and a library they depend on. The workflow steps include separate training and segmentation/tracking.

Examples of cell tracking from the reference publication are: ~100 cells in a freely moving nematode brain, ~100 cells in a beating zebrafish heart, and ~1000 cells in a 3D tumor spheroid.

napari-lattice is a napari plugin designed for the analysis and visualization of Lattice Lightsheet Microscopy (LLSM) and Oblique Plane Microscopy (OPM) data, particularly focusing on data acquired from Zeiss Lattice Lightsheet systems. Also available as lls-core - a command line version of the same tool which does not require napari.

The Plant Computer Vision (PlantCV) software package, is an image processing toolkit for plant phenotyping analysis. The goal of the PlantCV project is to develop a set of modular, reusable, and repurposable tools for plant image analysis that are open-source and community-developed.

PlantSeg is a tool for cell instance aware segmentation in densely packed 3D volumetric images. The pipeline uses a two stages segmentation strategy (Neural Network + Segmentation). The pipeline is tuned for plant cell tissue acquired with confocal and light sheet microscopy. Pre-trained models are provided.

NODeJ is an ImageJ plugin for 3D segmentation of nuclear objects.

An imageJ/Fiji plugin that measures and classifies neurites from a very large number of neurons.

A python based tool for registering a template brain (from the Allen Reference Atlas) to the sample image, an extension of aMAP. Once this is complete, any other image in the template space can be aligned with the sample (such as region annotations, for segmentation of the sample image). The template to sample transformation can also be inverted, allowing sample images to be aligned in a common coordinate space.

A plugin for the ImageJ platform that automates measurement of retinal nuclear layer thickness (e.g., outer nuclear layer (ONL), inner nuclear layer (INL)) by placing callipers perpendicular to the contour of segmented layers, enabling rapid, reproducible quantification across large images and multiple modalities.

BraiAn is an open-source suite of tools designed to simplify signal quantification, analysis and visualization of large datasets typically obtained in whole-brain imaging experiments, following registration to an atlas. 

The package consists of two separate modules.

Ultrack is a versatile and scalable cell tracking method designed to address the challenges of tracking cells across 2D, 3D, and multichannel timelapse recordings, especially in complex and crowded tissues where segmentation is often ambiguous. By evaluating multiple candidate segmentations and employing temporal consistency, Ultrack ensures robust performance under segmentation uncertainty. Ultrack's methodology is explained here.

A generalist framework for multi-dimensional automatic spot detection and quantification.

SpotMAX is designed to accomplish two tasks:

1. Detecting and quantifying globular-like structures (a.k.a. "spots")
2. Segmenting and quantifying fluorescently labelled structures

It supports 2D, 3D, 4D, and 5D data, i.e., z-stacks, timelapse, and multiple fluorescence channels (and combinations thereof).

This workflow is the integration of YOLO (You Only Look Once) machine learning models, image pre-processing scripts and labeling tools within the Galaxy platform. Galaxy is an open, web-based platform used primarily for data analysis in computational biology, but it also has applications in image processing and other fields.
