ClusterNet: Classifying Single-Molecule Localization Microscopy Datasets with Graph-Based Deep Learning of Supracluster Structure.

ABSTRACT: Single-molecule localization microscopy (SMLM) data can reveal differences in protein organization between different disease types or samples. Classification of samples is an important task that allows for automated recognition and grouping of data by sample type for downstream analysis. However, methods for classifying structures larger than single clusters of localizations in SMLM point-cloud datasets are not well developed. A graph-based deep learning pipeline is presented for classification of SMLM point-cloud data over a field of view of any size. The pipeline combines features of individual clusters (calculated from their constituent localizations) with the structure formed by the positions of multiple clusters (supracluster structure). This method outperforms previous classification
