Figure Lengend Snippet: ( a–h ) Simulated single-fluorophore datasets were used to assess Neuroplex classification performance under conditions designed to mimic common experimental noise sources. Each panel shows a schematic of the modeling setup (inset), average identification accuracy for single-pass (gray) and dual-pass (black) classification (top), and a breakdown of classification outcomes by fluorophore, including correct identifications, false-negatives, and false-positives (bottom). Each simulation contained 250 regions of interests (ROIs) and was repeated 100 times. Modeled perturbations included: increasing GCaMP background within ROIs ( a–b ), added low-level spectral background from other fluorophores ( c–d ), decreased signal-to-noise ratio via Gaussian white noise ( e–f ), and over-representation of a single fluorophore in the population ( g–h ). ( i ) Comparison of theoretical equal beta contributions (dashed line) to empirically observed beta weights across fluorophores in an example animal, showing deviations that inform the need for adjusted thresholds. ( j ) Example ROI illustrating how second-pass analysis recovers fluorophore assignments missed during initial thresholding. ( k ) Simulated experimental condition using known ROI spectra matched to the actual fluorophore distribution in animal YAS21272R. Background fluorescence, GCaMP co-expression, and white noise were added to approximate in vivo signal characteristics.
