Mastodon

Mastodon – a large-scale tracking and track-editing framework for large, multi-view images.

• Interactive browsing, inspection and navigation through the image data. Fast and responsive.
• Build tracking and lineage data from images.
• User-friendly framework to navigate through this data. Easy to relate spatial information with hierarchical information.
• Easily orient the user in a possibly very large annotation.
• "Point-wise" interactive editing of the tracking and lineage data. Manual curation.
• Semi-automatic and fully automatic tracking.
• Numerical features and statistics on tracking data. Tagging of this data. Tags and numerical features can then be used to to enrich the visualization.
• Extensible: a 3rd party can build plugins for Mastodon:Custom numerical feature analysers;
• Custom tracking algorithms (detection and particle-linking algorithms);
• General-use plugins.
