Chapter 3: Mapping Cell Splits and Merges

The key to tracking and analyzing histories of evolving structures is to accurately map the structures to their corresponding ancestors. Therefore, the image processing sequence of splitting and merging flames is the foundation for this problem. Without this mapping, no comparisons can be made of structure evolution over time. It requires bringing together existing features in Trackx, as well as new image processing techniques developed specifically for this problem. This chapter details these techniques.
