The cross correlation matrix (often called ccmatrix in Dynamo jargon) of a set of N particles is an N X N matrix. Each entry (i,j) represents the similarity of particles i and j in the data set.
Contents
Definition of similarity
This similarity of particles i and j measured in terms of the normalized cross correlation of the the two aligned particles, filtered to their common fourier components, and restricted to a region in direct space (indicated by a classification mask). The pseudo code will run as:
- Input
- particles pi and pj
- alignment parameters Ai and Aj
- classification mask m
- read particles i and j -> pi, pj
- align particles i, and j -> Aipi, Ajpj
- compute missing wedges for particles i and j -> Wi, Wj
- rotate missing wedges -> RiWi, RjWj
- compute Fourier coefficients common to bCoth rotated missing wedges
- Cij = intersection(RiWi, RjWj)
- filter pi with Cij
- p̃i = F-1[ F(pi).* Cij ]
- compare the filtered particles inside the classification mask.
- ccmatrix(i,j)<- normalized cross correlation(p̃i|m, p̃j|m)
Input for ccmatrix construction
The minimal input is a set of particles (formatted as a data folder) and their alignment parameters (formatted as a table). You also may want to specify a classification mask and optatively additional mathematical operations on the particles (as bandpassing or symmetrization).
Computation of a ccmatrix
Dynamo typically implements the computation of a ccmatrix in independent blocks. These blocks can be handled separately by different cores, but you do NOT have to tune the number of blocks to the number of available cores. The number of blocks needs to be tuned to the memory of your system and will be generally higher than the number of cores, so that each core will process several blocks sequentially.
Applications of the ccmatrix
A ccmatrix is most commonly used in the context of PCA classification. They can be used for Hierarchical clustering (using for instance the GUI dynamo_ccmatrix_analysis), but this procedure is normally much weaker than PCA.
