AIUQ tutorial

Yue He, Xubo Liu, Mengyang Gu

2024-07-01

In this vignette, we will demonstrate the core functionalities of the AIUQ package. These include estimating parameters and mean squared displacement(MSD) with associated uncertainties; simulating particle movements governed by various stochastic processes and generating corresponding intensity profiles to emulate microscopic images. More examples including the application of this package to real experimental data can be found on GitHub.

We start by importing the AIUQ library.

library(AIUQ)

Example 1: Simulate BM and get estimated parameters using BM model

To illustrate the method, we simulate a data set using default values of the simulation class which corresponding to the Brownian Motion(BM). (show() prints the main parameters used in simulation.)

set.seed(1)

sim_bm = simulation()
show(sim_bm)
#> Frame size:  200 200 
#> Number of time steps:  200 
#> Number of particles:  50 
#> Stochastic process:  BM 
#> Variance of background noise:  20 
#> sigma_bm:  1

## Plot simulated particle trajectory
plot_traj(sim_bm)

par(mfrow=c(1,2))
## Plot intensity profile for different frames 
plot_intensity(sim_bm@intensity, sz=sim_bm@sz) #first frame 
plot_intensity(sim_bm@intensity, sz=sim_bm@sz,frame=10, color=T) #10th frame, color image

Next, we can estimate the MSD and other parameters with selected fitting model.

## AIUQ method: use BM as fitted model 
sam = SAM(sim_object=sim_bm, model_name='BM')
show(sam)

#> True parameters in the model:  2 
#> Estimated parameters in the model:  2.010371 
#> True variance of background noise:  20 
#> Estimated variance of background noise:  19.90164 
#> Maximum log likelihood value:  -18150726 
#> Akaike information criterion score:  36301654

par(mfrow=c(1,2))
## Plot true MSD and estimated MSD
plot_MSD(object=sam, msd_truth=sam@msd_truth) #in log10 scale

## Plot intensity in reciprocal space 
plot_I_q_1 = matrix(sam@I_q[,1], sam@sz[1],sam@sz[2]) #first frame 
plot3D::image2D(abs(fftshift(plot_I_q_1)),main="intensity in reciprocal space")

User can select wavevector q range via AIUQ_thr or index_q.

sam = SAM(sim_object=sim_bm, AIUQ_thr=c(0.99,0.6))
