Welcome to Eospedia

We started the new manual site of Eos for only few people at 05 Nov. 2010. And we started the operation of Eospedia closed β version of the laboratory. In August 2012, we opened as the head family of the home page of the electron microscope image processing system Eos here.

We would like to summarize extensive knowledges as description and algorithm of the command about Eos. Also We will summarize here in the same way for the PIONE (developing since 2012) and VEM/WITs (developing since 2013). In addition, we would like to operate as a site that is possible to learn including an electron microscope image processing, the basics of the various image processing here.

We are developing Eos on Eos@sourceforge, PIONE on PIONE@github. We would like to expand the information that summarizes them here. In the future, we are considering also be independent of the university. Try and take a look at this related sites If you are interested in any of the development and use of these. The philosophy of wiki is not "how do us prevent mistakes" but "how do us improve it". Therefore we are glad, if you write freely your know-how and knowledge without afraid to make mistakes (Of course, incoherence is out of the question.).

Old Eos pages are here.

Now this Eospedia is under construction. Eospedia.ja has also opend here. Japanese version of Eospedia has more information than this Eospedia in English.

In addition, there is a forum and mailing list for Eos. If you want to know how to use the Eos: eos-users@ If you are interested in the development of in Eos: eos-developers@ If you are able to help write the document of Eos: eos-document@ If you can cooperate, we are glad.

We opened "Eos User Group"[1] on the facebook futher. We would like to spread using this.

Please contact Yasunaga[2] for more information.


Over-all view of the system that we are now developing (Eos/PIONE/Zephyr & WITs/VEM system)

We are currently developing a new system, namely "Eos/PIONE/Zephyr & WITs/VEM system", which would provide a total solution for image acquisition, processing and analysis of electron microscopic data by taking care of a series of necessary workflows in the analysis. The system has integrated each system (Eos, PIONE, Zephyr & WITs and VEM) that were developed for specific stages in the EM data analysis, and therefore can be termed as "Systems of System". But below we start by describing the summary and purposes of each system.

You can find a summary description of the integrated system in Eos/PIONE/Zephyr/WITs/VEM system (Under construction)

Integration comannd : PIONE

We here describe PIONE that is provided as an integrated environment that corresponds to the cloud environment and distributed environment by Eos.

Eos tutorial 

How to set Eos environment 

At first, we explain how to install Eos simplily. The details are described in Eos Installation.

How to use commands of Eos 

We explain how to use Eos commands. In details, please refer to the Eos Commands. Eos perform image processing and analysis with CUI, normally, although some interactive tools have GUI. In the near-future, each command has GUI on a browser by javascript.

Image format on Eos 

Image formats in Eos and how to transform image format from other general image formats are explained here.

Simple image processing using Eos 

Simple image processing and analysis can be performed here.

Tutorial List

Here are Makefile and PIONE for Small Tools or several Image Processing.

CTF Correction

Electron micrographs were greatly modified in contrast due to how to take them. Here we show the correction methods of CTF.

Single particle analysis 

This is a tutorial section of single particle analysis. Here we show the single particle analysis with reference. Actually, we must choose the 3D Reconstruction methods considering the situations.

Concept of Single particle analysis

Particle picking

At first, we pick particles from electron micrographs. Here, the manual picking method is shown, although automatic methods are also proposed.

Classification of 2D images

Next, we classify 2D-images following their shape and so average them per cluster to improve the ratio of signal to noise.

Estimation of projection angle using reference

Third, we determine the projection angle of each particle in the case of the presence of reference images, although the determination methods of projection angles are also proposed without reference.

Estimation of projection angle without using reference

As another way, we show the method of determining the projection angle of each particle in the case of not using reference images. Method of Common Line Search by Common Line is general.

3D Reconstruction: Backprojecdtion

Forth, we reconstruct 3D objects from 2D images, especially Backprojection.

Visualization tools

FInally, we interpret 3D objects reconstructed from 2D images using visualization tools.

Electron Tomography

Electron Tomography is one of the powerful techniques to solive 3D objects such as whole cell, cytoskeleton in cell, and protein structure with polymorphism. It reconstruct 3D objects from tilt-series images of the same photo field.

The overview of Electron Tomography

Electron Tomography can supply us 3D objects from tilt-series of 2D images of the same field. Here we explain the overview.

Image Correction

Fist, we must correct CTF (Contrast Transfer Function) becuase the 2D images are taken with larger defocusing values.

Rough Alignment

Next, we align 2D images roughly using correlation between each image.

Fine Alignment

Third, we estimate the tilt-axis position and angles.

3D Reconstruction

Fourth, we reconstruct 3D image from a set of tilt-series images.

Problems of Electron Tomography image

 We must pay attention of misleading blurring due to missing area, which is generated from the limitation of projection angles.

Interpretation of 3D Reconstruction

Last, we must perform segmentation of 3D objects to interpret them. Thus we must use computer-aided visualization tools.

Averaging of Subtomograms

Tomogram images of cryo-microscopy include a lot of noise, thus it is required the averaging of the particles have the same structure.

Notes

 This tutorial pages were created with refer to the documents used single particle workshop on 2012/09/10-11.

Input of image and Lens

Before performing image processing using a computer, you should keep in mind about the input device that digitize images.

CTF, PSF and MTF

True image: f(x,y) is degraded due to the method of Input of image and performance of the Lens.

Sampling

To convert analog images to digital images, it is important that discretize the space by decomposing. This step is called Sampling.

Quantization

First, in digital image process the operation that expresses density values ​​within certain number of bits (Optical density) is required. This operation is called quantization(AD convert).

Noise reduction

In order to deal the image including a lot of noise, knowing well the nature of the noise is important.

Smoothing

This is an image processing method with the primary purpose of eliminating the noise in the image. By understanding well the nature of the noise, the noise can be reduced properly.

Edge extraction

This is an important step in order to understand the shape of the object, but it is also a very difficult step.

Binarization

This is the process of isolating the background and the signal, and extracting the representative point and the skeletal. And it is the start process of the analysis and image processing.

Alignment of 3D objects

It is a method for removing noise by averaging the three-dimensional image with each other.

Alignment of a series of images
