3-D Shape Estimation of DNA Molecules from Stereo Cryo-Electron Micro-Graphs Using a Projection-Steerable Snake

Michaël Unser, Thierry Blu, Mathews Jacob

We introduce a three-dimensional (3-D) parametric active contour algorithm for the shape estimation of DNA molecules from stereo cryo-electron micrographs. We estimate the shape by matching the projections of a 3-D global shape model with the micrographs; ...
