MIPs and corresponding ROC curves of neuronal dendritic trees. (a)-(c) Typical examples of MIP images of C.elegans neuronal dendritic trees. MIPs illustrate varying degrees of background noise including the presence of autofluorescent gut granules and bacteria E. coli, the main nutrient source for C.elegans (see in particular example (c)). (d)-(f) Corresponding performance ROC curves (TPR vs FPR) using both our DTE method and a traditional intensity-based thresholding method for comparison.
