BNP-Track: a framework for superresolved tracking.

ABSTRACT: Superresolution tools, such as PALM and STORM, provide nanoscale localization accuracy by relying on rare photophysical events, limiting these methods to static samples. By contrast, here, we extend superresolution to dynamics without relying on photodynamics by simultaneously determining emitter numbers and their tracks (localization and linking) with the same localization accuracy per frame as widefield superresolution on immobilized emitters under similar imaging conditions (≈50 nm). We demonstrate our Bayesian nonparametric track (BNP-Track) framework on both in cellulo and synthetic data. BNP-Track develops a joint (posterior) distribution that learns and quantifies uncertainty over emitter numbers and their associated tracks propagated from shot noise, camera artifacts, pixelation, b
