Cell-ACDC provides a framework for the application of state-of-the-art deep learning models to the analysis of live cell imaging data without programming knowledge. Furthermore, it allows for visualization and correction of segmentation and tracking errors as well as annotation of cell cycle stages. We embedded several smart algorithms that make the correction and annotation process fast and intuitive. Finally, the open-source and modularized nature of Cell-ACDC will enable simple and fast integration of new deep learning-based and traditional methods for cell segmentation, tracking, and downstream image analysis.
