Table 8.
Time of particle picking using different hardware systems (GPU and CPU) on different micrograph dimensions
| Dataset | Evaluation metric | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Micrograph dimension | Number of tested micrograph | Testing time (per micrograph) on CPU (min) | Testing time (per micrograph) on GPU (min) | |
| Apoferritin top-view protein shape | 3374 × 3374 | 10 | 15.8 | 1.7 |
| KLH (top and side-view) protein shape | 2048 × 2048 | 17 | 11.3 | 1.2 |
| Ribosome irregular protein shape | 4030 × 4030 | 52 | 17.2 | 2.3 |
| β-Galactosidase complex protein shape | 4608 × 4608 | 15 | 18.6 | 2.6 |
The first column shows the original test micrographs dimensions. The second and third columns illustrate the testing time per micrograph on both CPU and GPU systems respectively
