arivis Vision4D 4.1

AI-assisted image analysis for everybody, anywhere: Perform local annotation and training with the new arivis AI toolkit or use the full power of the cloud - the choice is yours!

arivis Vision4D 4.1 features the new arivis AI toolkit (optional module) for a complete segmentation and training workflow of deep learning models with full flexibility. No matter which instrument, 2D or 3D datasets, light or electron microscopy: You label your objects of interest and run the DL training directly inside Vision4D on your local workstation. For your larger projects and collaborations, you harness the power of AI cloud computing with the APEER platform*. With arivis AI, you don’t have to trust a “black box” with your results, and you do not have to be an expert in bioinformatics. We give the power of AI into your hands, for more efficient results from your imaging experiments that you can trust.

Top Features of arivis Vision4D 4.1:

The new arivis AI toolkit features a convenient graphical user interface and a special Deep Learning Trainer that guides inexperienced users through their first experiments and analysis using advanced AI technology. With the integrated drawing tool, you easily label regions without the need to annotate the whole image, thanks to the “sparse annotations” feature. You run and monitor the deep learning training directly inside Vision4D, integrate the DL model in your analysis pipelines, or export the trained model in the open ONNX format to share with your colleagues and peers. And if you want to employ the power of cloud computing or want to collaborate in your analysis projects, we give you additional access to the APEER AI platform*.

In addition, based on your feedback we further improved the powerful automatic neuron tracing introduced with Vision4D 4.0. Several enhancements to the usage, visualization options and performance of the trace tool now make it your premiere solution for big neuroscience datasets. In addition to automatic support for various HCS file types, a manual well-plate editor provides added flexibility and handling for your high-content image analysis tasks.
