Main Methods:

  • Developed a novel method for automatic threshold value selection.
  • Utilized temporal correlations in particle count time series to guide threshold optimization.
  • Employed Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) simulations to identify optimal correlation-maximizing thresholds.

Main Results:

  • The automated method demonstrated effective threshold value selection across diverse experimental datasets.
  • Performance comparison showed automated thresholds yielded results comparable to, or better than, manual selections by multiple experts.
  • The method successfully reduced subjectivity and the need for manual intervention in particle detection.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed automated threshold selection method significantly enhances objectivity and reproducibility in particle tracking analysis.
  • This technique is easily integrated into existing particle detection algorithms, offering broad applicability.
