Whenever I feel down, I have a 👀 at the download statistics of that #opensource data-repository I and my team at OncoRay (Dresden) compiled during my PhD at @tudresden.bsky.social @hzdr.bsky.social.

Great to see @alexhego.bsky.social share instructions on a DL pixel‑classification problem we worked on at image.sc. If you’re working on a challenging 3D DL semantic‑segmentation problem and need more options than most tools provide, check out this repository. github.com/AlexHego/DL-...

Suitable @poldresden.bsky.social farewell cake for a #bioimage analyst? 🥮🤤

Our project BioFAIR: Towards FAIR Practices in Bioimaging has been selected for funding through the swissuniversities Open Science II Programme (www.swissuniversities.ch/en/topics/op...)!

More OME-Zarr and open microscopy community events on the horizon yay!!! 🔥🔥🔥

As good as a time as any to announce: After a great time at @poldresden.bsky.social I'm looking forward to starting my new position at @gerbi-gmb.de as a software developer for @openmicroscopy.org 🔬😀!

Scalable #RDM solutions in the ome-zarr-verse, here we come!

Huh...Voronoi-Otsu, Watershed and Connected Components for the instance segmentation 🤔 The hard part imho is not so much getting a good probability map but rather telling objects apart in dense areas. I could imagine a lot of tuning necessary for each dataset.

#EUProject | #BioImaging & AI

➡️ BioImage Model Zoo by @ai4life.bsky.social is a platform for #AI models in biological imaging

➡️ To find out about the training courses and tools available to help you use the platform correctly for your area of study, visit: www.embrc.eu/project/ai4life/

🌊🧪🦑

Broken gif in original post 😱...better look at the new feature of the @napari.org-clusters-plotter here 👇

Zarr is hiring again! Build scalable bioimaging solutions, collaborate globally, and join the Friedrich Miescher Institute for Biomedical Research as a Computational Scientist or Research Software Engineer

Copying selected elements of a layer in napari into a new layer

#bioimage 🔬 data #visualization and #exploration in @napari.org with the napari-clusters-plotter (0.10.0) becoming yet a bit more versatile: Select objects & put them into new layers for processing, introspection or whatever. Works for all layers, of course! #bioimageanalysis

Check out our latest release of the napari-clusters-plotter plugin! It is so versatile now, try it out with your data! @jo-soltwedel.bsky.social did a great job refactoring a lot of the code to ease its maintainance! ⚙️🔧

Smoke from wildfires over the city of Dresden

@stadt-dresden.bsky.social covered in smoke from earby wildfires. So this really is the new normal, huh...😒 #climatechange

To summarize:
- Unified feature visualization
- Cross layer exploration
- Responsive, extensible design
Try it on your data! And file issues on github.com/BiAPoL/napar... for bugs🐛

Shoutout to @haesleinhuepf.bsky.social @cryaaa.bsky.social @zigutyte for the groundwork on this super-cool project!

Finally some feature processing: I personally find getting a feeling for some #unsupervised #ML parameters hard, e.g., in dimensionality reduction/ #clustering.
Click yourself through the parameters and see what happens interactively!

Needless to say, the algorithms are extensible⬆️📈

Shapes 📐: The new clusters-plotter automatically assigns a fitting colormap to "categorical" features, which is neat when visualizing, e.g. skan (skeleton-analysis.org) #skeletons: Skeleton ids are then automatically assigned fitting colors - no need for manual selections!

With a little help from @stefanhahmann.bsky.social , tracking data is now supported, too. Goes to show the frame-highlighting for #timelapse ⌛data in the new version:

More supported layers: A major upgrade allows to interact with all sorts of @napari.org layer types: Labels🏷️, Points✴️, Vectors🏹, Shapes🔻, Tracks🔀 and even Surfaces⚫!
Particularly cool about Surfaces: @mazoc.bsky.social's histogram view leaves unselected areas transparent!
👉 pypi.org/project/biap...

FINALLY just released the @napari.org clusters-plotter 0.9.0 🤗 pypi.org/project/napa... The latest version comes with a complete overhaul of the entire codebase to make #microscopy data introspection and browsing even more accessible, intuitive and versatile! #bioimaging

Let's have a look 👇🧪💻🔬

Ad for the Bioimage Analysis Beginnings Bootcamp at the Broad Institute. Where & When Broad Institute, 415 Main Street, Cambridge MA (in-person only) Monday–Friday, August 4–8, 20259:00 AM – 5:00 PM About the Bootcamp Learn core bioimage analysis skills using open-source tools for light microscopy in this hands-on, in-person course. The Bootcamp covers annotation, segmentation, and deep learning fundamentals. Fee: $600 (Academic/Non-Profit) | $1000 (Industry/For-Profit) For more information email ImagingAdmin@broadinstitute.org

BIG NEWS - for the first time ever, we're running a Bioimage Analysis Beginnings Bootcamp. Learn #bioimageanalysis from awesome folks, and gain familiarity with some new tools as well as how to pick the right tool in the first place. Aug 4th-8th - apply here (soon!) forms.gle/d2fCXsrWHVP8...

Secondly, which I think is very cool: You can now draw annotations in napari and upload them to OMERO. Hopefully this makes annotating large datasets a lot less painful! 💥

(Nevermind my shonky drawing - don't annotate like me 😄)

Looking forward to feedback/bug reports: github.com/tlambert03/n...

New release: napari-omero 0.5.0 😀@openmicroscopy.org @napari.org thanks to some big contributions from @psobolewskiphd.bsky.social , @will-j-moore.bsky.social and of course @talley.codes. Some features in spotlight 👇

First: napari-omero now supports lazy loading of image pyramids from OMERO🔺:

Wait, wait, wait....v0.6.0 is just out, but there is already a next big feature coming to napari? Yes! You see it right 😊 (more impressive demo coming soon) .

Our own @brisvag has been doing work on multichannel grid mode which is to replace our current grid […]

[Original post on fosstodon.org]

That's cool: For a brief amount of time yesterday on May 1st, #solarpower accounted for the entire entire demand of the German grid - and more! Makes me happy to contribute with my measly 800W on my balcony 😅

I quite like this design - I find it easy to compare left and right arch, and the message is about that. Not the absolute quantities over the years.
