Surface Morphometrics Pipeline

  • Description

    a pipeline of tools to generate robust open mesh surfaces from voxel segmentations of biological membranes using the Screened Poisson algorithm and calculate morphological features including curvature and membrane-membrane distance using pycurv's vector voting framework with tools to convert these morphological quantities into morphometric insights.

  • Usage

    To list all executables provided by Surface Morphometrics Pipeline, run: $ sbgrid-list surface-morphometrics Copy to clipboard

  • Usage Notes

    Aliases have been created for each of the python scripts so that in place of running python SCRIPT.py users can just run SCRIPT.py.

  • Installation

    Use the following command to install this title with the CLI client: $ sbgrid-cli install surface-morphometrics Copy to clipboard Available operating systems: Linux 64
