coorx 2.0.0

Object-oriented linear and nonlinear coordinate system transforms, plus coordinate system graphs.

Coorx

Coorx implements object-oriented linear and nonlinear coordinate system transforms. Optionally, coorx also keeps track of a graph of coordinate systems (such as a scene graph) that are connected by transforms, allowing automatic mapping between coordinate systems.

• A collection of different types of coordinate system transform classes with unit test coverage
• Easy methods for mapping coordinate data through these transforms
• Transform composition and simplification
• Transforms intelligently map data types including numpy arrays, lists, etc.
• Automatic generation of composite transforms from a coordinate system graph
• Coordinate arrays that know which coordinate system they live in to handle automatic mapping
• Using named coordinate systems, coorx warns you wnen you try to map data through the wrong transform
• Automatic conversion of (some) transforms between ITK, Qt, scikit-image, and vispy

Installation

To install the package from PyPI, use the following command:

pip install coorx

Usage

Scale and translate 2D coordinates:

import numpy as np
from coorx import STTransform

coords = np.array([
    [ 0,  0],
    [ 1,  2],
    [20, 21],
])

tr = STTransform(scale=(10, 1), offset=(5, 5))

print(tr.map(coords))

Compose multiple transforms together:

import numpy as np
from coorx import STTransform, AffineTransform, CompositeTransform

coords = np.array([
    [0, 0, 0],
    [1, 2, 3],
    [-10, -200, -3000],
])

tr1 = STTransform(scale=(1, 10, 100))

tr2 = AffineTransform(dims=3)
tr2.rotate(90, axis=(0, 0, 1))

tr3 = CompositeTransform([tr2, tr1])

print(tr3.map(coords))

Todo

• import bilinear, SRT transforms from pyqtgraph
• import coordinate system graph handling from vispy
• make coordinate system dimensionality explicit
• unit tests against ITK output
