Approaching maximum resolution in structured illumination microscopy via accurate noise modeling by Ayush Saurabh, Peter T. Brown, J. Shepard Bryan IV, Zachary R. Fox, Rory Kruithoff, Cristopher Thompson, Comert Kural, Douglas P. Shepherd, Steve Pressé

“…We benchmark our framework on both simulated and experimental images, and demonstrate improved contrast permitting feature recovery at up to 25% shorter length scales over state-of-the-art methods at both high- and low SNR. B-SIM enables unsupervised, quantitative, physically accurate reconstruction without the need for labeled training data, democratizing high-quality SIM reconstruction and expands the capabilities of live-cell SIM to lower SNR, potentially revealing biological features in previously inaccessible regimes.…”
