In cryo-electron microscopy, RELION is a powerful tool for high-resolution reconstruction. Due to the complicated imaging procedure and the heterogeneity of particles, some of the selected particle images offer more disturbing information than others. However, in the current RELION, all these particle images are treated equally. In our work, we extend RELION&#x2019;s model with one scalar parameter to score the contribution of a particle depending on the error between the experimental particle and the corresponding reprojection. This scores down weight potentially poor particles, hence accelerating the convergence. Besides, by now there is no sophisticated memory management system for RELION, fragmentation on GPU will increase with iterations, eventually crashing the program. In our work, we designed the stack-based memory management system to guarantee the stability of RELION and to optimize the memory usage condition. Also, to reduce memory usage, we developed a customized compressed data structure for the memory-demanding weight array. In addition, to speed up the GPU version of RELION, we proposed two highly efficient parallel algorithms for weight calculation algorithm and weight selection algorithm. Experiments show that compared with RELION, the optimized three-dimensional refine algorithm can speed up the converge procedure, the memory system can avoid memory fragmentation, and a better speed-up ratio can be obtained.
