Multiple objects tracking in fluorescence microscopy

Many processes in cell biology are connected to the movement of compact entities: intracellular vesicles and even single molecules. The tracking of individual objects is important for understanding cellular dynamics. Here we describe the tracking algorithms which have been developed in the non-biolo...

Sumario:Many processes in cell biology are connected to the movement of compact entities: intracellular vesicles and even single molecules. The tracking of individual objects is important for understanding cellular dynamics. Here we describe the tracking algorithms which have been developed in the non-biological fields and successfully applied to object detection and tracking in biological applications. The characteristics features of the different algorithms are compared. ELECTRONIC SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIAL: The online version of this article (doi:10.1007/s00285-008-0180-4) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.
