Abstract

Methods and systems are provided for microscope auto-focusing. In one example, a method for microscope auto-focusing comprises: acquiring a plurality of contrast samples of an imaged subject; modeling a contrast distribution based on the plurality of contrast samples; acquiring an additional contrast sample based on the contrast distribution; modeling a corrected contrast distribution based on the additional contrast sample and the plurality of contrast samples; and focusing the imaged subject based on the corrected contrast distribution.
