If you want to learn about #bioimageanalysis I've written a free & open textbook that tries to help:
bioimagebook.github.io
Thanks to the wonder of @ExecutableBooks & other modern magic it's not quite like a normal book... (thread)

🚨 New segmentation model alert! 🚨🥳
You can finally use InstanSeg in our #BioImageAnalysis software #CellACDC!
InstanSeg is a fast and multi-channel cell segmentation model by @petebankhead, Thibaut Goldsborough, & co. The multi-channel ability is very interesting!

Find out more about InstanSeg from Thibaut himself at his Virtual I2K tutorial next week!
Register at i2kconference.org/virtual.ht…
Let me introduce: InstanSeg 🦠🔬💻👩🔬
This *would* have been a short thread about Thibaut Goldsborough’s PhD work… but he solved too many problems.
Now it's a long thread about 2 preprints, a whole new approach to cell segmentation & #opensource software to make it easy to use

Second QuPath v0.6.0 release candidate now available for testing at github.com/qupath/qupath/rel…
This speeds up InstanSeg for complex annotations *and* adds much improved support to read & write OME-Zarr - @openmicroscopy

"Despite repeated insistence from experts that sharing AI training data, code, and model weights [...] are necessary best practices [...], they are not universal practices among authors or publishers" Gitter et al. 🤩 osf.io/preprints/osf/2xh3w
❗️Important info hidden in the long thread❗️
Download the new QuPath v0.6.0 *release candidate* for the easiest way to try this out 💻🔬🤖

I literally squeaked when I tried InstanSeg myself. I'm worried I frightened @petebankhead and Thibault Gold with my enthusiasm when I saw how good the results are. Highly, highly recommended for multiplex image analysis!!
So... Preprint #2.
In which InstanSeg is extended to output nucleus & cell boundaries - and also to handle arbitrary combinations of image input channels.

So to summarize Preprint #1:
We introduce InstanSeg as a novel nucleus segmentation method that combines state-of-the-art accuracy with being open-source, fast and portable, accelerated on different hardware, and integrated into user-friendly software.
To be continued...

This bundles up QuPath & the InstanSeg extension, so it's easy* to get started.
Download it at github.com/qupath/qupath/rel…
*-Sorry non-Apple-silicon-users, GPU support can still be a pain to set up. Our attempt to help is at qupath.readthedocs.io/en/sta…
To summarize: we think InstanSeg could be pretty useful - for us & hopefully for others.
