## Trackastra Linker
263+
264+
* This linker uses [TrackAstra](https://www.ecva.net/papers/eccv_2024/papers_ECCV/papers/09819.pdf) for linking spots
265+
across timepoints.
266+
267+
Parameters:
268+
269+
* Link Threshold: Probability threshold for linking spots. Higher values lead to fewer links. Needs to be in the
270+
range [0, 1].
271+
* Mode:
272+
* Greedy linking with divisions: Uses a greedy algorithm to link spots and allows for cell divisions.
273+
* Greedy linking without divisions: Uses a greedy algorithm to link spots and does not allow for cell divisions.
274+
* Model (depends on dimensionality of data):
275+
* General Model (2D): Pre-trained model trained
276+
on [diverse 2D datasets](https://github.com/weigertlab/trackastra/blob/main/trackastra/model/pretrained.json).
277+
Recommended for 2D data.
278+
* Cell Tracking Challenge (2D+3D): Pre-trained model trained on data from the Cell Tracking Challenge.
279+
* Source: The channel name of the source image that was used for detection.
280+
* Resolution level: The resolution level of the source image. 0 is the full resolution, 1 is half resolution, etc.
281+
* Window size: The size of the temporal window to consider for linking. Higher values lead to better linking results but
282+
also
283+
increase the running time. Must not be larger than the number of timepoints in the dataset.
