Table 2 Performance of the proposed de-arraying method on three datasets under four setting options: (1) both the segmentation and the non-linear estimation (for the deformation) modules are deactivated, (2) the segmentation is activated but the non-linear estimation is deactivated, (3) the segmentation is deactivated and the non-linear estimation is activated, and (4) both of them are activated

  1. All considered performance scores range from 0 (worst) to 1 (best) and measure the similarity between the de-arraying results and their corresponding ground-truth or manual annotation. Notations: (a) accuracy (A), (b) precision (P), (c) recall (R), (d) F-score (F), (e) G-score (G) and (f) Jaccard coefficient (JSC)
