Cell counting¶

Cell counts in pictures can be obtained with cellpose models and average intensity regression models. Any number of napari image layers can be selected to be evaluated.

Cellpose model¶

Without enabling regression model counting the default used method is cellpose segmenting. The lower settings are for cellpose only.

Cell outlines can be output to verify the accuracy of results.

Our custom cellpose models can be accessed there.

Average intensity regression model¶

For these models we should enable the regression model counting feature. The lower settings are irrelevant now, cell outlines will not be output. It is only used for counting cells in images.

Our regression models can be accessed there.
