title: Machine Learning-Based Estimation of Experimental Artifacts and Image Quality in Fluorescence Microscopy - Supporting Data

description: Supporting data for the reproduction of the results reported in Corbetta, E., Bocklitz, T., Machine learning based estimation of experimental artifacts and image quality in fluorescence microscopy (2024) [1].

MM-IQA_Images_png and MM-IQA_Images_tif

Folder containing all the supporting datasets of the publication.



images_manual_inspection: semisynthetic dataset used for the manual inspection of the quality metrics.

images_lda_training: semisynthetic dataset used to train the Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) model.

images_lda_prediction: datasets predicted by the LDA model.



images_experimental: every subfolder is a dataset composed of measurements of a different sample. Images are from publicly available datasets from [2] and [3].

images_known_semisynthetic: knwon semisynthetic dataset used for prediction, assessment and interpretation of the trained model.




Tif files are the original data used for the study.
