Spectral unmixing methods attempt to determine the concentrations of different fluorophores present at each pixel location in an image by analyzing a set of measured emission spectra. Unmixing algorithms have shown great promise for applications where samples contain many fluorescent labels; however, existing methods perform poorly when confronted...

... applications using NLS, it is common to estimate the aut- ofluorescence endmember from a no-probe control. Figure 4 shows how the autofluorescence endmember estimated from the no-probe control image compare to those learned by SSASU. It is clear that the no-probe control endmember poorly characterized the autofluorescence encountered in the test images. ...
