Convolutional Neural Network Transformer (CNNT) for Fluorescence Microscopy image Denoising with Improved Generalization and Fast Adaptation

Deep neural networks have been applied to improve the image quality of fluorescence microscopy imaging. Previous methods are based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) which generally require more time-consuming training of separate models for each new imaging experiment, impairing the applicability and generalization. Once the model is trained (typically with tens to hundreds of image pairs) it can then be used to enhance new images that are like the training data. In this study, we proposed a novel imaging-transformer based model, Convolutional Neural Network Transformer (CNNT), to outperform the CNN networks for image denoising. In our scheme we have trained a single CNNT based backbone model from pairwise high-low SNR images for one type of fluorescence microscope (instance structured illumination, iSim). Fast adaption to new applications was achieved by fine-tuning the backbone on only 5-10 sample pairs per new experiment. Results show the CNNT backbone and fine-tuning scheme significantly reduces the training time and improves the image quality, outperformed training separate models using CNN approaches such as - RCAN and Noise2Fast. Here we show three examples of the efficacy of this approach on denoising wide-field, two-photon and confocal fluorescence data. In the confocal experiment, which is a 5 by 5 tiled acquisition, the fine-tuned CNNT model reduces the scan time form one hour to eight minutes, with improved quality.
