ZEN offers the functionality to use a machine learning model trained for denoising directly during a continuous acquisition. Note that currently only models trained with ZEN are supported.

  1. You have trained or imported a denoising model in ZEN. For more information, also refer to Intellesis Denoising. Note that in order to be able to train a model, you need the license for the AI Toolkit.
  2. Docker Desktop is installed together with the denoising container and running.
  1. On the Acquisition tab, set up your acquisition with the respective tools, e.g. Imaging Setup, Channels and Acquisition Mode tool. Note that the Acquisition ROI must have a frame size of at least 1024x1024 pixel! Depending on the chip size of your camera you have to check image size and binning to ensure that the frame size meets this requirement.
  2. Your acquisition is set up.
  3. In the Channels tool, activate Live Denoising.
  4. The dropdown is activated.
  5. In the dropdown, select the denoising model you want to use.
  6. Denoising is now activated for your acquisition. Note that for widefield systems with a dual camera, only the first model will be applied to both channels.
  7. Click Continuous.
  1. You have started a continuous acquisition with simultaneous denoising.
