Adaptive Attention Residual U-Net for curvilinear structure segmentation in fluorescence microscopy and biomedical imagesSegmenting curvilinear structures in fluorescence microscopy remains a challenging task, particularly under noisy conditions and in dense filament networks commonly seen in vivo. To address this, we created two original datasets consisting of hundreds of synthetic images of fluorescently labelled microtubules within cells. These datasets are precisely annotated and closely mimic real microscopy images, including realistic noise. The second dataset presents an additional challenge, by simulating…
