Easy Tracking of Rhythms in Plants

ETRIP:

Easy Tracking Rhythms in Plants: optimise the pipeline to detect periodicity of upwards/downwards movements in plants

This repository contains code for motion detection and modelling based on PyTRiP from github.com/KTgreenham/TRiP. Additionaly a widget has been added to handle the cropping of images.

import etrip

#crop images 
etrip.imageSelector("/my/data/directory/original/", "/my/data/directory/cropped/")

#compute motion
etrip.estimateAllMotion("/my/data/directory/cropped/", "/my/data/directory/analysis/")

#fit model
etrip.fitAllMotion("/my/data/directory/analysis/")

Details of the algorithm, plant imaging set up and examples can be found here: Greenham, K., Lou, P., Remsen, S.E. et al.
