Revolutionizing Cell Tracking in Research
Researchers have developed a new metric called CHOTA (Cell-specific Higher Order Tracking Accuracy) that enhances how we evaluate cell tracking methods. Unlike traditional metrics, which focus on local accuracy, CHOTA looks at the bigger picture—assessing cell detections, global coherence, and lineage tracking. This makes it more useful for high-level biological research, helping scientists track complex cellular behaviors more effectively and with greater clarity.
