Table 1.

Error rates at each stage of the algorithm for the 350- to 500-cell C. elegans embryo.

Initial DoG 3D maxima detection Overlooked nuclei added Final error after overlap resolution
False Negatives (%) 4.6 1.7 1.8

False Positives (%) 1.8 2.8 1.3

Total error (%) 6.4 4.5 3.1

Error rates compared to ground truth for the partial result available at each stage of the algorithm.
