The study acknowledges the challenge of scaling kernel regression with increasing image sequences and parameter space dimensionality. Additionally, the need for retraining neural network models for new structures or objective spaces is noted as a limitation.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study employs a machine learning approach, specifically Kernel TS (Thompson Sampling), for online optimization of super-resolution microscopy parameters. The methodology combines posterior sampling with kernel regression to efficiently model each objective.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The experiments utilize various biological samples, including fixed and live hippocampal neurons, HEK293, and PC12 cells, stained with different fluorophores for STED imaging.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
A four-color Abberior Expert-Line STED system equipped with pulsed excitation lasers and avalanche photodiode detectors was used. Fluorophores included ATTO647, STAR RED, Alexa633, and GFP-tagged proteins.
4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The optimization process involves varying parameters such as laser excitation and depletion power, pixel size, and scanning speed. The system evaluates different objectives like image quality, photobleaching, and imaging speed, adjusting parameters in real-time based on feedback from acquired images.
5：Data Analysis Methods:
The study uses kernel regression for modeling objective functions, with performance assessed through measures like autocorrelation amplitude, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and Fourier Ring Correlation (FRC).
