DeepHEMNMA neural network step. The deep learning neural network is a combination of a ResNet 34 feature extractor (ResNet block) and a 4-layer multilayer perceptron (MLP block). It is trained to map each single-particle image onto the corresponding, HEMNMA-estimated conformational parameters (M normal-mode amplitudes), orientational parameters (3 Euler angles), and positional parameters (2 in-plane shifts) of the particle in the image. DeepHEMNMA converts the Euler-angle representation of the orientation used in HEMNMA into a 4-parameter quaternion representation, which is learned by the neural network internally. The learned quaternion representation of the orientation is then converted back to the Euler-angle representation for the analysis at Stage 3 of DeepHEMNMA.
