Tissue Image ToolKit¶
Tissue Image Toolkit (TimageTK) is a Python package dedicated to image processing of multicellular architectures such as plants or animals, and is intended for biologists, modelers and computer scientists.
Overview¶
The package provides the following main functionalities:
Image filtering
Linear filter operators such as: Gaussian, gradient, hessian, laplacian, …
Mathematical morphology
Morphology operator such as: erosion, dilation, opening, closing, hat transform, sequential filters, …
Image registration
Linear and non-linear block-matching registration, transformation operators, sequence registration, multi-angle fusion, …
Image segmentation
h-transform, connected component labeling, watershed, …
Visualisation
Stack browser, orthogonal views, projection maps and other GUI.
Batch processing
A simple data model allowing to perform batch processing of large of dataset.
Images and other data structures can be rendered using the visualization functions we provide. However, if you are less experienced with code, using a dedicated interactive image visualization software such as Gnomon or Fiji is recommended.
Written in Python, TimageTK leverage the work of some of the most standard Python libraries such as:
