Python bindings of BioPB: open protobuf/gRPC protocols for biomedical image processing

BioPB

A place for collecting protobuf/gRPC definitions for bio-imaging data. Currently it has only two packages

1. biopb.image Image processing protocols. Current focus is single-cell segmentation, designed originally for the Lacss project.
2. biopb.ome Microscopy data representation modeled after OME-XML.
