| Popis: |
In this paper we present an algorithm for the detection of spontaneous activity at individual synapses in microscopy images. By employing the optical marker pHluorin, we are able to visualize synaptic vesicle release with a spatial resolution in the nm range in a non-invasive manner. We compute individual synaptic signals from automatically segmented regions of interest and detect peaks that represent synaptic activity using a continuous wavelet transform based algorithm. As opposed to standard peak detection algorithms, we employ multiple wavelets to match all relevant features of the peak. We evaluate our multiple wavelet algorithm (MWA) on real data and assess the performance on synthetic data over a wide range of signal-to-noise ratios. |
