Community-developed checklists for publishing images and image analysis

Images document scientific discoveries and are prevalent in modern biomedical research. Microscopy imaging in particular is currently undergoing rapid technological advancements. However for scientists wishing to publish the obtained images and image analyses results, there are to date no unified guidelines. Consequently, microscopy images and image data in publications may be unclear or difficult to interpret. Here we present community-developed checklists for preparing light microscopy images and image analysis for publications. These checklists offer authors, readers, and publishers key recommendations for image formatting and annotation, color selection, data availability, and for reporting image analysis workflows. The goal of our guidelines is to increase the clarity and reproducibility of image figures and thereby heighten the quality of microscopy data is in publications.

A unified joint reconstruction approach in structured illumination microscopy using unknown speckle patterns

The structured illumination microscopy using unknown speckle patterns has shown the capacity to surpass the Abbe's diffraction barrier, giving the possibility to design cheap and versatile SIM devices. However, the state-of-the-art joint reconstruction methods in this framework has a relatively low contrast in super-resolution part in comparison to conventional SIM and the hyper-parameter is not easy to tune. In this paper, a unified joint reconstruction approach is proposed with the hyper-parameter proportional to the noise level. Different regularization terms could be evaluated under the same model. Moreover, the degradation entailed by out-of-focus light could be solved in speckle illumination setup easily.

On the super-resolution capacity of imagers using unknown speckle illuminations

Speckle based imaging consists of forming a super-resolved reconstruction of an unknown sample from low-resolution images obtained under random inhomogeneous illuminations (speckles). In a blind context where the illuminations are unknown, we study the intrinsic capacity of speckle-based imagers to recover spatial frequencies outside the frequency support of the data, with minimal assumptions about the sample. We demonstrate that, under physically realistic conditions, the covariance of the data has a super-resolution power corresponding to the squared magnitude of the imager point spread function. This theoretical result is important for many practical imaging systems such as acoustic and electromagnetic tomographs, fluorescence and photoacoustic microscopes, or synthetic aperture radar imaging. A numerical validation is presented in the case of fluorescence microscopy.

Joint reconstruction strategy for structured illumination microscopy with unknown illuminations

The blind structured illumination microscopy (SIM) strategy proposed in (Mudry et al., 1992) is fully re-founded in this paper, unveiling the central role of the sparsity of the illumination patterns in the mechanism that drives super-resolution in the method. A numerical analysis shows that the resolving power of the method can be further enhanced with optimized one-photon or two-photon speckle illuminations. A much improved numerical implementation is provided for the reconstruction problem under the image positivity constraint. This algorithm rests on a new preconditioned proximal iteration faster than existing solutions, paving the way to 3D and real-time 2D reconstruction
