Results and computation

Results

Here you can find a detailed list of the content of the results folder of each analysis. You may want to read the OVERVIEW page that corresponds to the analysis you want to launch before reading this section (see Skeleton, Clustering and Factorization).

Skeleton (page)

  • sequence_projection/

    • projected_coordinates.npy: a file containing the array of components coordinates
    • projected_traces.npy: a file containing the array of components traces
    • projected_mask.png: the binary skeleton (or ‘active’) mask
    • summary_image.png: the summary_image generated from the movie

  • skeleton_mask/: a folder containing all the intermediate images obtained during image skeletonization:

    • 0_summary_image.png
    • 1_histogram_equalization.png
    • 2_smoothing.png
    • 3_thresholding.png
    • 4_holes_removing.png
    • 5_skeletonization.png
    • 6_skeleton_cleaning.png
    • 7_skeleton_label.png
Clustering (page)

  • dimensionality_reduction/

    • pca_res_*.png: a figure of a trace before and after PCA

  • hdbscan_clustering/

    • cluster_*.png: a figure containing a cluster mask and traces
    • hdbscan_*.png: a scatter plot of traces, projected in a 2D plane

  • sequence_projection/: the same folder than in skeleton, but whose components are the clusters (see Consecutive clusterings)

Factorization (page)

  • skewness/

    • comp_*_to_*.png: each output component of the factorization, before the skewness selection, with a red or green outline depending on whether the skewness is high enough to be kept (green) or not (red)
    • skewness_distribution.png: histogram distribution of the components’ skewnesses

  • components/

    • comp_*.png: each final component of the analysis

Computational performance

Here are plotted the execution durations of the different modules for some movies. The execution times may vary slightly with the methods and parameters selected. Experiments were conducted on a Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8565U CPU @1.80GHz.

Tip

Depending on which operation you want to perform on the sequence, you can adjust some parameters (e.g. crop) to increase computational speed. You can also cut your movie into smaller ones (e.g. \(12500 = 5 \times 2500\) frames).
