Seg2Link is a software designed to semi-automatically segment cells in 3D image stacks, especially for the brain images obtained by electron microscopy.

Read the documentation at Seg2Link.io.

Features

  • Utilize deep learning predictions -- Seg2Link assist users to create to accurate segmentation results of individual cells from inaccurate cell/non-cell predictions .
  • Simplicity -- Seg2Link generates segmentation automatically and allows for easy inspection and manual corrections.
  • Efficient -- Seg2Link is designed for the fast processing of medium-sized 3D images with billions of voxels.
