Higher-Order Cell Tracking Transformer

Reconstructing lineages from live-imaging microscopy requires linking cell detections across time, including through cell divisions. A common approach is to construct a candidate graph and associate cell segmentations (nodes) across frames. However, these and other existing methods overlook two structural obstacles in candidate tracking graphs: (i) cell divisions entangle distinct lineage paths in the node embedding space, and (ii) edges sharing a node have near-random label agreement, so the…
