Will your algorithm be the best for this new image data challenge?

Posted by , on 26 February 2024

In order to answer image data analysis demands, France-BioImaging is launching its first data machine learning competition: welcome to the Light My Cells challenge! The Light My Cells challenge aims at contributing to the development of new image-to-image ‘deep-label’ methods in the fields of biology and microscopy. Basically, the goal is to predict the best-focused output-images of several organelles
