History

  • 2012-04-23 First Version
  • 2012-07-11 2nd version
    • new: single track extractor to evaluate tracks by comparing to the volume rendering of the original stack.
    • new: Capability to use track color-coding from the output of MTrackJ. FOr using the output of MTrackJ, another jython script that converts the data structure is required (description will be added later).
  • recent log in detail

Source

Released under the GNU General Public License v2.

Requires

Most recent Fiji ( >> Fiji site). Definitely requires 3DViewer plugin installed, and for this, Fiji will be a easy choice than installing multiple plugins for ImageJ.

Installation

Download the plugin using this link:

The plugin will appear under the following menu tree: [Plugins → EMBLTools → 4D track Plotter].

Description

This 3D visualization tool is an extended functionality for 3D viewer plugin written by Bene Schmid for plotting 3D track data for evaluation of the tracking quality. Source data should be a CSV file with the following column order (see the example below):

index - trackID - frame - x - y - z - scaled x - scaled y - scaled z - particleID

3D track viewer, GUI

workflow

  1. Click “Choose Track File” and select your csv file with track data.
  2. Decide if you would like to visualize tracks as a static 3D path, or dynamic 4D path (“Dynamic”).
    1. 4D path consumes memory. If your machine does not have enough memory or CPU power, you might need to wait for a very long time if your data is large.
  3. Decide if you want to also see path nodes.
  4. Activate the checkbox according to your decision.
    1. 4D path / nodes cannot be visualized together with 3D path and vice versa.
  5. click “plot”.

MTrackJ file

For loading MTrackJ output file, the file should first be converted using this file. The resulting converted text file has an extra column that defines the color for each tracks.

Example of coordinate data

Below is an example of data file that could be loaded from 3D tracker viewer. SXpos,SYpos &SZpos are the columns of 3D coordinates that will be used for the plotting. S stands for scaled.
