CESPED: a new benchmark for supervised particle pose estimation in Cryo-EM
Ruben Sanchez-Garcia, Michael Saur, Javier Vargas, Carl Poelking, Charlotte M Deane
Cryo-EM is a powerful tool for understanding macromolecular structures, yet current methods for structure reconstruction are slow and computationally demanding. To accelerate research on pose estimation, we present CESPED, a new dataset specifically designed for Supervised Pose Estimation in Cryo-EM. Alongside CESPED, we provide a PyTorch package to simplify Cryo-EM data handling and model evaluation. We evaluated the performance of a baseline model, Image2Sphere, on CESPED, which showed promising results but also highlighted the need for further improvements. Additionally, we illustrate the potential of deep learning-based pose estimators to generalise across different samples, suggesting a promising path toward more efficient processing strategies. CESPED is available at https://github.com/oxpig/cesped.
