pytom-match-pick: A tophat-transform constraint for automated classification in template matching by Marten L. Chaillet, Sander Roet, Remco C. Veltkamp, Friedrich Förster

“…However, TM faces challenges of weak signal of the macromolecules and interfering features with a high signal-to-noise ratio, which are often addressed by time-consuming, subjective manual curation of results. To improve the detection performance we introduce pytom-match-pick, a GPU-accelerated, open-source command line interface for enhanced TM in cryo-ET. …”

Specific performance of IDT edge fingers by E. DANICKI, T, GAFKA

“…The theory shows that the edge strips of the system works differently as compared with these positioned inside the system. The familiar δ-function model however, can still be applied provided that the δ-sources of SAW are properly scaled and shifted from their position at the centres of the strips. …”
