A system for tracking single-cell movement trajectories is disclosed. The system can record, to a plurality of frames, cells (events) within a microfluidic device. Also, the system can identify an event within each frame including whether the event is a single cell or multiple cells. When the event appears differently between frames (e.g., single cell in one frame and multiple cells in another frame), the system can either segment or merge the cell(s). Then, the system can determine a trajectory for the events based on a position of the event in the frames. Further, the system can determine cell properties based on the trajectory of the events.
