The 3D point spread function of a fluorescence emitter in a living cell is often different from that of the z-stack of bead images typically used as a reference. Here we show that the location in z of a fluorescent emitter can be directly accessed in the latent space of an autoencoder trained on the sample images without z-reference data. The corresponding decoding network represents an accurate point spread function.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
