CryoDiff: An uncertainty-aware diffusion model for Cryo-EM map enhancement (opens in new tab)

Cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) enables high-resolution structural determination of large macromolecular complexes. However, the interpretability of cryo-EM maps is often hindered by substantial background noise and signal attenuation, which obscure structural details. Although existing post-processing methods can partially mitigate these artifacts, they typically suffer from over-smoothing and lack reliable confidence estimation. Here, we present CryoDiff, an uncertainty-aware diffus...
