The meaning of "Track quality" in TrackMate

Image Analysis
#1

My question is, what do “Track_Mean_Quality”, “Track_Max_Quality”, “Track_Median_Quality”, and “Track_STD_Quality” mean?

When I check the manual for TrackMate, the only explanations about “quality” seem to be related to spot detection, and I could not find explanations about tracking quality.

I would appreciate your kind advice.

Hello @Chen_Jean

It simply takes the mean, max, median and std of the quality of all spots in a track, and attach the resulting value to a track.
