Abstract

An article with three goals, namely, to (1) provide the set of ideas and information needed to understand, at a basic level, the application of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to analyze images in biology; (2) trace a path to adopting and adapting, at code level, the applications of machine learning (ML) that are freely available and potentially applicable in biology research; (3) by using as examples the networks described in the recent article by RĂ­os et al. (2024. https://doi.org/10.1085/jgp.202413595), add logic and clarity to their description.
