Untying the Gordian KNOT: Unbiased Single Particle Tracking Using Point Clouds and Adaptive Motion Analysis.

Achieving mechanistic understanding of transport in complex environments such as inside cells or at polymer interfaces is challenging. We need better ways to image transport in 3-D and better single particle tracking algorithms to determine transport that are not systemically biased toward any classical motion model. Here we present an unbiased single particle tracking algorithm: Knowing Nothing Outside Tracking (KNOT).
