Analysis: Localizations

Analysis: Localizations

In Analyze, you can override some of the default parameters used for localization. For example, changing the sigma offers the possibility to localize a bigger object, such as versicles instead of molecules.
To re-run the localization, you will need an Nvidia GPU and CUDA 9.1 (recommended) installed on your local computer:
  1. Click on Load Data to load the data of interest.
  2. Check Override Default Localization Parameters. Note that all the associated files will be overwritten.
  3. Set the desired parameters and click on Run Localization to start the process. The progress will be shown in Status:
For batch localization:
  1. Click on Data > Batch Processing to open the processing window.
  2. In the pop-up window, click on Open Folder to select the folder of interest.
  3. Click on Add to add the datasets of interest or click on Add All Data Sets to add all the datasets from the selected folder.
  4. Check Run Localization for the selected datasets and click on Start Processing to start the batch process:
