MorphoMapping

MorphoMapping is an analytical framework designed for the analysis of Imaging Flow Cytometry (IFC) data. It is based on our Python package, morphomapping, which provides tools for dimensionality reduction and clustering of IFC data. Step 2 and Step 4 can be considered optional.

Description

Getting started

Please refer to the documentation.

Installation

It is recommended to choose conda as your package manager. Conda can be obtained, e.g., by installing the Miniconda distribution. For detailed instructions, please refer to the respective documentation.

conda create -n morphomapping python=3.10
conda activate morphomapping

PyPI

Install morphomapping via the pypi release:

pip install morphomapping

Development Version

In order to get the latest version, install from GitHub using

pip install git+https://github.com/Wguido/MorphoMapping@main

Alternatively, clone the repository to your local hard drive via

git clone https://github.com/Wguido/MorphoMapping.git && cd MorphoMapping
git checkout --track origin/main
pip install .

Note that while MorphoMapping is in beta phase, you need to have access to the private repo.

Jupyter notebooks

Jupyter notebooks are highly recommended due to their extensive visualization capabilities. Install jupyter via

conda install jupyter

and run the notebook by entering jupyter-notebook into the terminal.
