Fluorescence time-lapse microscopy is a powerful technique for observing the spatial-temporal behavior of viruses. To quantitatively analyze the exhibited dynamical relationships, tracking of viruses over time is required. We have developed probabilistic approaches based on particle filters for tracking multiple virus particles in time-lapse fluorescence microscopy images. We employ a mixture of particle filters as well as independent particle filters. For the latter, we have developed a penalization strategy to maintain the identity of the tracked objects in cases where objects are in close proximity. We have also extended the approaches for tracking in multi-channel microscopy image sequences. The approaches have been evaluated based on synthetic images and the performance has been quantified. We have also successfully applied the approaches to real microscopy images of HIV-1 particles and have compared the tracking results with ground truth from manual tracking. |
