## Uses
|
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
+
The model was pre-trained with a heterogenous dataset of microscopy images with the goal of obtaining cell morphology
|
| 28 |
+
embeddings for biological applications.

### Direct Use
|
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
<!-- This section is for the model use without fine-tuning or plugging into a larger ecosystem/app. -->
|
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
+
The primary use of this model is feature extraction of cellular morphology in image-based biological experiments.
|
| 35 |
+
The model takes single-channel images as input and produces feature vectors with discriminative information of cellular phenotypes.
|
| 36 |
+
The input images should be segmented ahead of time; this model does not identify the location of cells automatically. The feature
|
| 37 |
+
embeddings have been tested in single-cell analysis problems. If the images of interest are multi-channel, each channel can be
|
| 38 |
+
processed independently and then the feature embeddings of all channels are concatenated for downstream applications. The applications
|
| 39 |
+
of the embeddings produced by this model include basic biology research, functional genomics studies, drug discovery projects, among
|
| 40 |
+
others.

### Out-of-Scope Use
|
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
<!-- This section addresses misuse, malicious use, and uses that the model will not work well for. -->
|
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
+
This model is not useful for cell segmentation, its primary use is feature extraction only. The model should be use for
|
| 47 |
+
analyzing imaging data in biological laboratories. It is not intented to be use in clinical practice or in diagnostic applications.
|
| 48 |
+
The model should not be used for applications that involve biological weapons, or any other type of biological manipulation that
|
| 49 |
+
could harm humans or the natural environment.
